It was a typical hijacking, hostage holding movie that did not really impress. It was almost too predictable for me and the acting of John Travolta and Denzel Washington mediocre because of the characters they played. Too much swearing on Travolta’s part put me off as well.
Ryder (Travolta), hijacks a subway train and holds the passengers hostage on the train and demands $10 million to be delivered in 1 hour and he will start killing 1 passenger for every minute they are late. Garber (Washington), the subway dispatcher has to act as the hostage negotiator/confidant that Ryder talks too and won’t talk to anyone else.
Not worth the effort to watch this one at all. If you don’t see anything else on the shelf then fair enough.
PEVibe Score: 4/10
