The Taking of Pelham One Two Three 1974 (mp4)

Sharp and fast-paced thriller that follows an easy-going N.Y.C. transit cop (Walter Matthau) who's forced to out-match the wits of four well-armed gunmen and their resilient leader(Robert Shaw) who are holding eighteen passengers on a subway train and demand onemillion dollars within the hour.

Made in the era of smart, stylish, and ingenius thrillers ('70s), this film didn't fail to loose my attention at all. In addition to Matthau and Shaw, the supporting cast (Hector Elizondo,Martin Balsam, Jerry Stiller, Tony Roberts, and so forth) is are just as excellent as the twounflappable leads. This well-polished crime movie is filled with exciting moments and heart-pounding suspense. Plus, there are some quirky one-liners thrown into the story as well.
