The Taking Of Pelham 123 (Opens In Theaters On June 12th)
Starring: Denzel Washington, John Travolta, Luis Guzman, Victor Gojcaj, Robert Vataj, James Gandolfini and John Tuturro
This is a remake of the 1974 movie that starred Walter Matthau. The story of a day in New York City on a subway train that no one will ever forget. A hijacking by armed men on the train holding many passengers hostage for ransom.
Opens in theaters on June 12th and it is rated R for violence and pervasive language. The runtime is 121 minutes. This ought to be a very good crime thriller because 2 of my favorite actors are playing in it. John Travolta and Denzel. Can’t wait to see if this is going to be as good as the original. My bet is that it will be better. Only thing I am disappointed in is that John Travolta is playing the bad guy.
