A movie like this one comes along once in a lifetime.

Rating: 10/10 (12 February 2003)

It's hard to know what to say about Taxi Driver that hasn't already been said. This is probably one of the most highly acclaimed movies of all time, yet most people either love it or hate it. Thankfully, most people love, and my only explanation for those who hate it is that they just don't get it, and probably never will. Forget the violence - many critics of Taxi Driver simply point to the film as being too violent - and just watch it, soak it in, and really let it get under your skin. The violence is part of the story, and the story is one that, though it may make you uncomfortable, it does get to you and leave your mind reeling. Now, That's entertainment!
