Review: The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3

Firstly, I would like to give a round of applause to one of the best actors alive, Denzel Washington and John Travolta. The acting was EXCELLENT. They made the characters very believable.
I also liked the story, but what I didn't like about the movie was the multiple mistakes.
You will know what I mean when you see the movie.

Movie plot:
"New York City subway dispatcher Walter Garber's ordinary day is thrown into chaos by an audacious crime: the hijacking of a subway train. Ryder, a criminal mastermind, leads a highly-armed gang of four, threatening to execute the train's passengers unless a large ransom is paid within one hour. As the tension mounts beneath his feet, Garber employs his vast knowledge of the subway system in a battle to outwit Ryder and save the hostages. But there's one riddle Garber can't solve: even if the thieves get the money, how can they possibly escape? "

I rate the movie 7.7/10

I just came back, I saw it too but I didn't really like it.. Maybe because I'm not a big fan of action movies.

I give it 4/10
