the best film-noir film directed by the master himself, Maritn Scorsese

Rating: 8/10 (3 November 2000)

the famous tracking shots of Deniro tell us that its a Scorceses film. This film deals with some tough issues, yet still tells us the realistic issues that occur in New-York everyday, crime, prostitution, politics, love and loneliness. Deniro plays in what I believe to be his best role yet, a lonely ex vietnam veteran who works as a taxi driver, maybe trying to access the socialised world that he is clearly not a part of. Although the scenes at the end are a bit messy, this film is one definitely worth watching.
