I looked forward to watch this Luc Besson movie. I never saw this earlier movie of him but after watching and liking L'Ours, The Fifth Element, Léon, Nikita, Le Grand Bleu and many others I was expecting something of the same quality. Unfortunately this wasn't the case with Subway. I think I even overrated this one as the story doesn't make much sense and isn't well constructed, to end as a movie I wished I didn't waste time on. Subway is a mess that looks watchable but with a plot that ends up to be a complete waste of time, something that looks unfinished. And it's not because of the cast as those are all top French actors. I do like Christopher Lambert, Isabelle Adjani, Richard Bohringer, Jean Reno and Michel Galabru, all actors that played in great movies but Subway isn't one of them. Maybe we can blame it on the fact he was debuting but soon after that Luc Besson showed he was a talented director that made great movies. Let's keep it at that for an excuse.
