    ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES!!! Kids today need to see this film, one of DeNiro's all time great performances, I love Martin Scorsese in the bit part he puts himself in. Every character is memorable and most of them have gone on to have incredible careers. Robert DeNiro, Harv...( read more)ey Keitel, Albert Brooks, Cybil Shephard phenomenal. and this has one of DeNiro's most quoted lines "you talking to me?" and the amazing thing is the subtlety of the performance, of a man craking at the edges. Intense, but not over acted. Martin Scorsese is the man.

    Travis is such a monstrous man, and to see him snap is at once sad and unforgettable.

    Taxi Driver is a haunting and gripping drama.The story is about a lonely cab driver. After losing a friendship with a beautiful woman, he becomes angry and embittered. This causes him to slowly lose his mind. As he begins to feel more insecure in his job and surroundings,he buys ...( read more)guns and knives. He then sets out on a personal mission to change his society, using violent means.The film is involving because of its character study. It is a chilling narrative of how loneliness and despair can lead to insanity. But the film is memorable because of Robert De Niro's performance. He is skilled at acting with facial expressions and without too many words. In this role, he is frightening.The film is another classic directed by Martin Scorsese .

    I thought this would be better. I just didnt really get the flow of the film's plot, but everything else is superb. It builds with a menacing promise of a non-cheery end for all or some of Travis' foes. You can see the influence of this film in so many other films. I have seen th...( read more)e bits and odds of this but never the whole film till now. Kind of made me feel dirty in a similar way that 'There will be Blood' did.

    in a sick sick world, travis bickles mentality makes more sense.
  • October 21, 2009
    One of De Niro's absolute best movies... All look so damn young in it too xD
  • October 19, 2009
    the powerfull charater and gripping movie
  • October 18, 2009
    Totally, Totally *Hands Up* Underestimated this movie the first time around. There's a reason it's a classic, even if like me... you don't see it at first. Turns out... it's actually a pretty fucking cool movie!

    Even from the opening its raw. It's powerful. It makes a statement...( read more). I feel like people could study this movie forever and then it'd still only be the tip of the iceberg in terms of the vast content and range of interpretations this movie has to offer.

    Both De Nero and Scorsese shine in creating and representing the trials and values of one man's search for connection, meaning and validation in an incarcerating society. Set against Hermann's musical score is just intoxicating!

    "Listen, you Fuckers, you Screwheads. Here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the Scum, the Cunts, the Dogs, the Filth, the Shit. Here is a man who stood up."

    It's sad to think of how this movie lost out at Academy Award time to other contenders such as Rocky, All the President's Men and Network... but equally I think we can all recognise how this movie on it's own merit has stood the test of time.

    Always wanted to see this movie and finally did. I was very good movie for all the actors in the movie. Now I know what movie the mirror seen came from (You talking to me).
  • October 11, 2009
    A really perfect film. Everyone who has felt lonely at some some stage can relate to this masterpiece.
  • October 9, 2009
    For this to be a movie made before I was born, it was pretty interesting. I do think it was a movie made just for the sake of making it because there really wasn't any 'point' to it. De Niro was concluded to be a hero, though, he was truly only crazy and his life just went on. En...( read more)ding reminds me of American Psycho. Main character did something bad but didn't have to pay for it. Lastly, I really don't care how crazy De Niro portrays himself to be ... I love him ... I'd definitely get with him...unstable or not.
  • October 5, 2009
    A very pivotal film.
  • October 5, 2009

    One of Scorsese's best. That's all I can say. Excellent.

    95/100
  • September 12, 2009
    wow....De Niro is a bad ass
  • September 11, 2009
    Robert De Niro at his very best.

    Travis Bickle: You're only as healthy as you feel.

    Travis Bickle: You talkin' to me?
  • September 9, 2009
    This was an excellent movie. Robert De Niro is an excellent actor, and this was another great film of his. Jodi Foster's small part in this movie was great as well. A must see!!! :)
  • September 9, 2009
    This movie is a long drawn out descent into madness. The first time I saw this film I was shocked by how the storyline progressed. This film is the antithesis of predictable. I can honestly say that after watching this film I was utterly speechless, I rewinded the tape and watche...( read more)d the film again, after the second viewing of this film I knew that I loved it. The pure and utter method to Travis Bickle's madness was incredibly confusing but at the end of the film his redemption is apparent yet is still quite bittersweet. You as the audience member know that despite his progression as a person he is still doomed to the dark and bleak life of a New York Taxi Driver. This is one of the best films ever made, period.

  • September 5, 2009
    I Can't say much for Taxi Driver that it doesn't say for itself through the years and years its had to reverberate through the annals of film. Whether you like it or not, it's a classic, something other films will be inspired by. Maybe there are some that do it better, may...( read more)be not. What I got out of it was Scorsese doing a decent job for a change. He finds his hook and sticks with it, that hook being one Robert De Niro and his various assortment of revolvers. Now, I liked this film. Yeah, social commentary, violence, what not, a bit of this and that. But, I have to admit that those 3 1/2 stars are for Bickle's .44 magnum alone. WOW!
  • September 4, 2009
    Something of a masterpiece. Certainly not like anything I've ever seen before.
  • September 4, 2009
    What a violent movie! De Niro his just trully asome in is taxi driver.. Love Harvey Keitel too, what a good actor!
  • September 4, 2009
    The impact this film has had on cinema has been vast. A film true to its time, a social commentary on the public's lack of faith in politicians and the possible extent their paranoia could lead us. Plus you have three people on top of their game, Robert DeNiro, Martin Scorsese an...( read more)d Paul Schrader, all masters in their professions.
  • September 3, 2009
    Can't believe I've spent half my life driving a hack and never seen this movie
  • September 2, 2009
    good movie but the ending was bad and brutal.. long and so boring to watch at first but it make sense at all. its worth the wait.. robert de niro was soo cute. the fact that he was here in this movie was a beautiful thing. robert character here was weird really weird to the point...( read more) that he became murderer. i just saw this last year. better late than never. this is a classic masterpiece you should watch this.
  • August 30, 2009
    Shallow. De Niro does a good job, but the story in itself gives a rather narrow perspective on the anxietys of Mr Bickle and the people he meets. Not enough depth to keep me interested. Although the cinematography does look quite convincing in itself.
  • August 30, 2009
    Scorses's masterpiece; an unflinching glimpse and meditation on the post-Nixon era in New York City where the political climate is as tense as the neurosis of it's inhabitants. The film's technique in bringing the viewer into the mind of Travis Bickle is effective in creating a v...( read more)iscereal experience while watching it; it's as though you are morphing into him, but not really. It's a great psychological case study of madness with the eventual redemption of reclaiming one's sanity as the footnote to vigilante prediliction; a hero is but a saint whose fall from grace is as tragic as the victim whom he saves.
  • August 23, 2009
    Who knew shaving your hair into a mohawk and wearing a gun strap shirtless can be so inviting? De Niro looks like he's ready to snap on any passerby. He can obsess with the best of them, but with much more grace. Bulletproof vest? No, he doesn't need it. He can absorb bullets and...( read more) live to imagine a beautiful woman in a taxi cab.
  • August 21, 2009
    Increible film by Martin Scorsese, his second masterpiece (the first being Mean Streets), Robert De Niro is as brilliant as ever in his role as an insane taxi driver who slowly goes over the edge.
  • August 17, 2009
    Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster and the director: great!
  • August 16, 2009
    i seen this movie a long time ago, it has allot of voilence in it and blood in a few parts. actor rober Dinero street vigalanti saves young actor Jodie Foster playing the role of 13 year old prostitute, Deniro faces her slimy pimp and kills him. this occurs in many inner cities s...( read more)till to this day.

    Look at me not giving it 5 stars. My reviews are so controversial.

    A true, entertaining classic.

    OMG how come i didnt see that movie:@:@:@
  • August 5, 2009
    Outstanding film. One of Scorsese's best and the second best film of 1976. The story is amazing when it describes how New York is and how the people are. The acting by De Niro, Foster and Keitel are incredible and is one of the best performances of their careers. This film also h...( read more)ad one of the most creative endings, is it real or was it a dream, if it was real how will Bickle act in the future?
  • August 5, 2009
    Maybe I didn't get it, but this movie is IMHO just boring !
