Rating: 6/10 (11 December 2012)

The script of "Taxi Driver" is built like a diary, the diary of a very ordinary guy who gets hired as a night taxi driver back from Vietnam, because he can't sleep at night. A very ordinary guy who tries to break his isolation, but can't. The graphic and disturbing images of a man who lost his mind, control, and morals. It wasn't awful I'll give it that but I feel that labeling it as a cinematic masterpiece is a bit much. The character is interesting and we get to see the loneliness become companion to his psychosis and eventually evolve into a psychopathic violent explosion, but to what end? What was the point of the film? Overall it was entertaining. But would I recommend it? Most likely, no.
