A terrific decent into violence

Rating: 10/10 (19 October 1998)

Taxi Driver (along with "Casablanca" and "Pulp Fiction") are the best movies ever made! Robert DeNiro's acting performance is one of the best of his career. After winning his Academy Award for the "Godfather Part II" and (later on) "Raging Bull" his performance comes a very close third!
As well as Jodie Foster's star making performance (whick also gave her an Academy Award Nomination) is absolutely perfect! Director Martin Scorese's direction is also one of the best of his career, if not THE best! And any lover of the movie will get goose-bumps after hearing the chillingly beautiful score by the late Bernard Herrmann.
This is one of Hollywood's chilling perceptions of one man's personal hell.
5 out of 5!
