WOW! Just WOW!

Taxi Driver is an experience. I recently watched it for the first time and wow is this an awesome movie! Nothing in this movie stands out as bad or stupid or anything remotely like that. It feels 100% original and just an awesome idea.
Robert DeNiro is terrific in this movie. It's my favorite performance from him in any movie. It's just awesome to see somebody do something like this. A performance like this is something that shouldn't ever be forgotten. I'm thinking it won't.
Now one of the complaints of the movie, Joker, was that it felt too much like this movie and The King of Comedy. I've only seen parts of the King of Comedy so I can't say anything on that but Joker did feel like this movie. Personally I think Joker is a better movie but this is just a terrific movie and deserves the attention it gets.
