Great film. Plenty of action. Two main actors are very good. Won't be disappointed.

Like most films with Denzel, this one is very watchable. It starts off quite well with the hijacking of a subway train and the initial negotiations. But the plot runs a little thin towards the latter stages. Decent cast, and overall decent movie.

Does what it says on the tin

Ok, how many times have we seen Travolta play the bad guy...? well enough to know that he is convincing as one.....even if it seems that he writes his own script....he gels well with Denzil who plays his part well . It gives its entire time to entertaining and thats what it should do........nuff said !!!

Travolta does his mad bad guy impression and Denzel plays his ordinary joe caught in the middle act. This is ok stuff but nothing special, the story doesn't really explain the real reason they are highjacking the train (apart from the ransom) which leaves you wondering did you miss something at the end. Average fare.

Good stylish Thriller

Don't get bogged down in the arguments about if the original was better, this is a fast paced stylish thriller that can more than stand on it's own two feet. Denzel steals the show as usual.

Not too bad but not too good either. the ending is lacking a bit of flare it needed something. some of the action scenes are very good but they do not rescue the show.

A hijack movie by numbers...123 ;)

Nothing new on offer here, you've seen it before. Performances are not outstanding either, John Travolta hams it up and Denzel Washington doesnt convince as 'the average family man'. watchable nonetheless.
