Starring Denzel Washington and John Travolta, Tony Scott's explosive remake of the 1974 classic The Taking Of Pelham 123 is a nail-biting ride through New York's subway. When a train hijacking starts to cost lives it is up to subway dispatcher Garber (Washington) to outwit the criminals.    Tony Scott's re-make of the 1974 classic thriller.   Walter Garber (Denzel Washington) is a New York City subway dispatcher whose ordinary day is thrown into chaos by an audacious crime: the hijacking of a subway train. Ryder (John Travolta), the criminal mastermind behind the hijacking and leader of a highly-armed gang of four, threatens 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?   Actors Denzel Washington, John Travolta, Luis Guzman, Victor Gojcaj, Gbenga Akinnagbe, John Turturro, James Gandolfini, Jason Butler Harner, Michael Rispoli, Ramon Rodriguez, Chance Kelly, Brian Haley, Jason Cerbone & John Benjamin Hickey Director Tony Scott Certificate 15 years and over Year 2009 Screen Widescreen 2.40:1 Languages English - DTS-HD Master Audio (5.1) Additional Languages German ; Italian Subtitles Danish ; English (UK) ; English for the hearing impaired ; Finnish ; German ; Hindi ; Italian ; Norwegian ; Swedish ; Turkish Closed Captions Yes Duration 1 hour and 46 minutes (approx)
