Panik im Tokio-Express

This movie made 20 years before Speed has only 13 reviews while Speed has more than 500 reviews. Of course I am angry cos this is much better than Speed.

The villain in this one is better than Dennis Hopper. The background stories of the terrorists/villains r very well done in this movie compared to Speed.

Note that one has to see the 150 mins version of this movie.

I saw this for the first time recently n that too almost 50 years of its release n still enjoyed it.

Surprisingly Sonny Chiba got a very miniscule role. He doesn't get to make his weird constipated facial expressions in this one nor does he gets to fight anyone.

This movie inspired many movies -Speed, Runaway Train borrowed few elements, The Bollywood offspring The Burning Train borrowed some elements n another Bollywood offspring Tezz directly copied it.

Even Michael Mann's Heat borrowed few elements, the last airport scene n the wife called in to spot the guy.
