Heh. Travolta was an embarassment.Yeah, I don't think he was all that good in it. Denzel was great, but I always enjoy his movies. As to the foamy stuff, my own attitude was that it wasn't shot on the LA red line nor in Toronto ... good enough. Yeah, I agree.....that is a HUGE improvement from the 2nd one. I don't personally care if it isn't "true to life", it's a movie for god's sake. The whole premise is unrealistic in real life, even forgetting what trains run on what lines and to where and through where. I don't personally care that you don't "pass Shea Stadium" on your way to Coney Island via the 6 line.... :) I actually kinda like picking out the stations disguised... "Hey, that's Hoyt", "Hey that's Chambers St", etc. And I think they did a good job at the fake abandoned "Roosevelt" station under the Waldorf Astoria. I guess that's a play on that platform under the hotel that the History Channel brought up.... :) The mosaic was well done, but hey, the IND "Roose-velt" signs weren't correct..... The one I own looks like this: Theirs said: Roos- evelt :) Personally I liked the movie....but I had to throw my railfan thoughts totally to the side to enjoy it.... :) |
