Product Description

Crime thriller triple starring Denzel Washington. Tony Scott directs ' The Taking of Pelham 123' (2009), a remake of the 1974 crime thriller which starred Walter Matthau & Robert Shaw. Denzel Washington takes over Matthau's role as Lieutenant Garber, a dispatcher for the New York City Transit Police who finds himself in a face-off with criminal mastermind Ryder (John Travolta, in the role originally played by Shaw) after an armed gang hijacks a subway train & takes its passengers hostage, threatening to start executing them one by one if they are not paid a hefty ransom within the space of one hour. ' Inside Man' (2006) is directed by Spike Lee. Washington plays tough cop Keith Frazier, who finds himself drawn into a tense hostage situation when a bank heist planned by master criminal Dalton Russell (Clive Owen) goes drastically wrong. Trying to negotiate the release of the hostages, Frazier begins to realise that something isn't quite right with the whole set up, & when enigmatic Madeline White (Jodie Foster) arrives on the scene, he realises that he's stumbled onto something a lot bigger. Willem Dafoe & Christopher Plummer co-star. In ' The Bone Collector' (1999), street cop Amelia Donaghy (Angelina Jolie) discovers a hideously mutilated corpse & her superiors call on forensics expert Lincoln Rhymes (Washington) to investigate. Paralysed after an injury sustained in the line of duty, the case gives Rhymes a new lease of life, but he needs a reluctant Donaghy to do the legwork for him if he is to stop the murderer from striking again.
