My Favorite Thrillers

Which thrillers are my personal favourites?

1) In my opinon my favorite thriller is "The Taking of the Pelham 1 2 3", it it a mix between crime and actiona thriller with Denzel Washingtion and my favourite actor John Travolta.

This is a shot from my iTunes library, You can see the Actor´s, short Information and the Director.

The film starts with Walter Garber (Denzel Washingtion), who is a worker in the New Yorker Underground. His main job is to direct the Undergrounds. During his day, the train Pelham 1 2 3 i kidnapped by Ryder ( Travolta). Ryder trys to receive a ransom for all the hostages in the train. His main aim is not the ransom, his is looking to rise the Stock and Shares of a Company were he purchased earlier massive parts of it. Ryder only wants to talk with Walter to explain him his special insistences. During the thriller the Hitchcock style suspense is built up, that is what I really enjoyed.
Walter uses his skill and knowledge of the Underground-network to outsmart Ryder.

2) My second favourite Thriller is "Vantage Point" 2009

This a amazing film, because it show a assassination on a President from 7 different views of different people which are all in a special way invloved. The main actors are Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox and Forest Whitaker.
This is again a shot from my ITunes library 

Plot: Vantage Point is about  assassination on the President of United States from 8 different viewpoints of eight different characters. This set of eight characters includes people in charge of the President’s security, the media, civilians and the people taking out the attack.
The film starts off with Rex Brooks (Sigourney Weaver), the director of a TV station, broadcasting the President’s speech. The only information this scene divulges is what meets with the eye. The film then rewinds a few minutes to Thomas Barnes, a secret service agent in charge of protecting the President. The film tells all eight characters’ view in a short span of time and keeps rewinding to the start of the event for each character.
Howard Lewis (Forest Whitaker) is a civilian video-taping the event to show to his children that he was actually there at special  event. He captures what he believes is the picture of the assassin.
For the audience it’s a case of piecing together eight different clues arising from eight different perspectives to unravel the truth behind an assassination attempt.
