The original “TAKING OF PELHAM 123” that inspired the 2009 remake starring John Travolta and Denzel Washington. The movie is about four armed men who hijack a New York City subway train, demanding… 1 MILLION DOLLARS (insert picture of Dr. Evil and diabolic laugh here) within one hour. Lt. Zachary Garber, played by Walter Matthau, is in charge of getting the hostages back safely while dealing with the hijackers and the time limit.
