One of my favorites.

Rating: 10/10 (4 November 2015)

Boy does this movie have style... many memorable quotes, scenes, concepts, and more--all placed wonderfully in a realistic and gritty setting. Taxi Driver satisfies a lot of needs for movie lovers, especially those that enjoy psychology. There's a lot of moments that stand out and can be remembered, especially the scene circling Robert De Niro's most famous quote. Its buildups and reveals are fantastic, especially when you first see his new look. The reason I love it is because of its simplicity (most notably during the salesman scene), but also because it's an excellent anti-hero film... one that's believable and deep. With enough viewings, you may even come to enjoy its little imperfections, like I have. Of course though, the best aspect of the film is Travis... all of his strange personality traits, the way he looks, the way he monologues, his insomnia--it's gripping and entertaining. Travis Bickle is a fantastic anti-hero, and Robert De Niro is the perfect Travis Bickle.
