Review of Taxi

Taxi (I) (2004)
2/10
Sucked
11 October 2004
If you want to see a movie for the only reason of getting glimpses of hot chicks and completely far-fetched car chases then "Taxi" would be your calling. However if you're looking for a film with any substance whatsoever then avoid this film like the plague. It's allegedly a comedy yet it lacks comedic performances. The only time anyone in the theater laughed was during the nitrous oxide scene and Ann Margaret's performance as Jimmy Fallon's mother. I swear that if you've seen one Queen Latifah movie you've seen them all. She is exactly the same in each and every one of them. She seems like a decent enough actress too which is why it's a shame that they need her to keep playing the same role over, and over, and over again. I'm sure she has some sort of acting range but I'm willing to say it's a safe bet that she'll never be able to utilize it. As for Jimmy Fallon, well he's basically the poor woman's Adam Sandler and I'm surprised as hell that he ever left SNL because I don't think he has what it takes to make it in Hollywood. Lastly, yes, Giselle Bundchen and Jennifer Esposito are hot but neither one can act to save their lives. This was a bad movie!

Final Lashing:

Movies: No way in hell!

DVD Purchase: You've got to be kidding me?!

Rental: If you say so.
