The Taking of Pelham 123.....
If I had to list my Top 5 crime films, this one would make that list. What's not to like? Robert Shaw & Walter Matthau under one roof and both in top form. So, I was surprised today to discover that even a "perfect" film like this one is subject to the remake treatment -
Pelham 123 / 2009 It will be handled by director Tony Scott. He's got a couple early works I like (True Romance, Enemy of the State) but not much else in the last 10 years. Anyone else a fan of the original? Any issues with remakes of classics? I suppose ultimately one should not care what Hollywood does but it never ceases to amaze me that with all of the terrific, original storylines out there a remake is the best that can be done? Eeeeesh!
