Variety
More than anything a fascinating portrait of how much New York has changed in 35 years, the film delivers the goods in excitement and big-star charisma.

A fast and relentless hostage thriller that never stops.

There's not much wrong with Tony Scott's The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3, except that there's not much really right about it.
