Trivia:
Shot in Toronto's TTC subway system, mainly using the system's only abandoned station platform and two of a class of older cars being retired by the TTC. The two cars were shipped by road to the scrapyard the day after filming ended, still disguised as New York cars. moreGoofs:
Miscellaneous: Mr. Blue demands a plane with enough fuel for an "international flight." This is a very peculiar way to ask for enough fuel to reach Canada, but any other "international" destination would be much farther away; yet Anthony does not ask for clarification. moreFAQ

I don't know why Hollywood feels the need to re-do classic movies. Can they not come up with original storylines anymore? This tv movie was lacking in so many areas. The actors had no chemistry, the dialog was banal, and the action seemed contrived. Don't waste your time on this one. Rent or better yet, buy the original starring Walter Matthau.
