‘Pelham 1 2 3’ remake goes down for the count

One could forgive Tony Scott’s remake of “The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3” for its departures from the acclaimed 1974 original (both were based on the novel by John Godey) if it succeeded on its own as a taut thriller.

Having Kris Allen ignore the disco theme and sing “She Works Hard for the Money” as an acoustic guitar solo was a lot better than if he had shown up in John Travolta's white suit and tried to strut.
