Taxi Driver

Rating: 10/10 (8 May 2013)

A very steller performance by Robert De Niro. He is an estranged ex vet who works the latenight shift as a taxi driver. He feels as if he has no real purpose after the war and has a tendency to find himself in trouble from his violent outlashes. Eventually he finds a prostitute whom he begins to care about and watch after. It starts to pick up a lot of pace at some points and also has some slow points.It also does a very good job of portraying the city environment to add to the realism. The lighting in scenes really helps set the mood. There are a lot of twists and scenes that keep you nailbitting. I think it is a great movie that should be seen by everyone.
