Taxi!

Nonfictionguy

From the writer that penned Leon and Nikita, comes a very light and enjoyable buddy movie, where even the car or rather the driving is often the star. Characters are well developed and interesting, plenty of light humour balances the chase scenes and there is even a little social commentary for the literati to pick up on. The movie is filmed in French, so it is subtitled in english, but don’t le... read more

A bad and overrated movie

I found this one was so bad ! I remember when it came out in France. It was a huge success and everybody went to see this movie. Everybody except me. My gut was telling me it was big pile of horsesh*t. So I didn't go. For months, I had to hear all the comments about this movie ("This is great !" "You have to see it !",...) . After 6 months, a friend convinced me and I finally saw it on video (no D... read more

You know how remakes will always be inferior to the original? I still refuse to watch "The Ring" or its god-awful sequel on the grounds that I happened to catch the Japanese original "Ringu" first. Having said that, I watched "The Assassin" before I watched Luc Besson's "Nikita" so I'd probably prefer the Yankee one. Besson was one of my favourite non-American directors - "Leon" is one of my favou... read more

In Marseilles (France), skilled pizza delivery boy Daniel changes jobs to become a taxi driver, but his dream is to become an F1 race-car driver. Caught by the police for a huge speed infraction, he will help Emilien, a loser inspector on the track of German bank robbers, so he doesn't lose his license and his job.

“You know how remakes will always be inferior to the original? I still refuse to watch "The Ring" or its god-awful sequel on the grounds that I happened to catch the Japanese original "Ringu" first. Having said that, I watched "The Assassin" before I watched Luc Besson's "Nikita" so I'd probably prefer the Yankee one. Besson was one of my favourite non-American directors - "Leon" is one of my favourite films of all time - and although the great man was only writing the script, this feels very much like his film. Typically stylish, hugely commercial and still retaining enough Gallic charm to put most viewers off, "Taxi" is a mindless action thriller that is criminally under-rated in my opinion.

"You're just not used to French cinema pumping out completely daft action films like this - but you are left wishing that they did it more. Plot logic and continuity are thrown out of the window in exchange for some pretty good (if not all that exhilarating) car chases and long lingering shots of Emma Sjoberg and Marion Cotillard's legs and breasts. Brain off and enjoy!"
