taxi d

Rating: Null/10 (18 December 2015)

Taxi driver is a classic that divides the fallout between one man's loneliness and his need for acceptance, recognition, and notice, and justice. He wants to fix the wrongs he sees in the cesspool that has become NY, He wants to save Foster the 12 year old prostitute. Bickle is an anti-hero, because his methods are not solely for the saving of the girl. He kills the low lives of society and is glorified for it by media. He actively plans out and trains his body for these killings, to satisfy the rage he has toward the miscreants of society. The editing is very good and Scorsese does a wonderful job directing, mainly because of the ambiguous ending of the film. But the true thing that makes this movie grate is its script and the excellent performance De Niro gives as the lead.
