Dark and disturbing

Rating: 9/10 (8 December 2017)

Taxi Driver was a hard movie to understand. Once understood, it makes sense. Travis is a difficult character to relate to, yet hes also very easy to understand. Robert DeNiro's acting was phenomenal, hes seriousness and strange charm being the most intense part of the movie, even past the violence and horrors of NYC, also a part of the city that does not truly get portrayed in all of its messed up glory. I only wish I understood his desire to go after the senator, however it is possible he may have just been looking for an outlet. Fantastically filmed.
