The Great Debaters
Damn.
I didn't even check this movie is a Tony Scott movie.
I am not a fan of Tony Scott. His movies are just like something Nicolas Cage would be in...
Instead, Tony Scott and Denzel Washington seem to be like good buddies.
And I am not so impressed with Washington's work here. John Travolta however was very charismatic.
The movie was entertaining while being viewed. No more. Not very grasping either.
Some parts are causing attention divergence: like a stupid girl asking his boyfriend to tell her he loves her when he was being held as a hostage.
I kinda wanna watch the original version "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three" (1974). Will rent soon.
Rating: 3.5/5

Wow.
Denzel Washington directed the movie.
The story was good,
but perhaps this movie should have been made long time ago.
Something lacked.
I do not know whether it was Washington's directing,
for I am not that level of a critic.
But actors were great.
The message...
I know it's a good message,
but feels a little outdated,
but it could be also because I live in the Bay Area,
where racial issues are minimal, although it still exists.
But it's great to know that such things happened in the past.
Racism must be removed.
4.5/5
