The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3! Full of lot's of Furballs! 6.4!

IMDB Pelham Review 6.4! I agree!

Denzel...Travolta...New York...Subway...Disaster!  Now that's original...not!  I am not sure if this movie was about a hijacked subway or about setting the record for using the word Furball.  It seemed every single character in the movie used it, I am sure of it.  I guess Hollywood wants to make sure the New Yorkers shine as only they can.  Aside from the abusive potty mouth, I thought this movie was pretty good.  I do think Travolta makes a HORRENDOUS villain though.  I mean, he played one villian in Pulp Fiction, it was pretty good, and now he's a villian in everything and really unconvincing at that.  As for Denzel, well, he's is the same guy he has played in every movie he's ever made.  Calm, cool and convincing.  For some reason it never get's old with him.  I'd like to see him try something off the wall one day though.  This one is worth the watch to me, but it might not be for you.    Oh Furball!
