Taxi Driver Reviews
Memorable performances throughout, particularly from Robert De Niro as a man who's lost but through the depth of existence as an NYC cab driver traces an unforgettable route of realization and discovery. Scorsese's taught direction and the wonderful support of Jodie Foster and Harvey Keitel among many others assist in this riveting ride of a man finding salvation within madness. A must-see for certain.
A captivating story about a New York cabbie. Stories like these dive into a realistic day to day living in NYC, Robert De Niro demonstrates an incredible job doing exactly that. The plot of the movie is very realistic with a sudden twist that makes the story hard to navigate. The best part of that is that it really helps you realize by the end the way of thinking Travis was feeling. The overwhelming feeling of loneliness makes you long for purpose, and sometimes you live long enough that the purpose you long for can make you a hero
La vi un viernes a las 12 am, fue de las mejores experiencias de mi vida, peak movie.
A decent movie, with beautiful lighting, but an ultimately shallow story and characters that didn't hit me in any meaningful way. Travis is the world's biggest screw up and in the end nothing bad comes of it. The final few minutes also fall very flat. If the movie ended about 5 minutes sooner it would be a bit better.
Scorsese really hit this one right out of the park. De Niro truly shines here. Intrigue, awe, depth, action, enough emotion. Do not miss this one
Don't be afraid to get help, there is nothing shameful about it.
Ok, we all know that this movie is a classic. I would say everyone should watch this that's interested in Martin Scorsese and this genre of film. I've probably seen this 4 times throughout my life... I watched it last night, but didn't like it near as much as I've liked it before. There's really cool groundbreaking stuff that was new and shocking for the '70s. It just didn't hit me the same way as it has before. That being said, Travis Bickell is a character that will go down in film history! Definitely worth a watch.
Excellent performance by DeNiro. Not my favorite Scorsese movie but a classic nonetheless.

Feel good movie with great acting all around but felt there could’ve been more
An unequivocal masterpiece and a showcase for a director at the height of his powers. Aside from his technique, Scorsese's vast knowledge of movies presciently corraled the great Bernard Herrmann, and jt pays off in spades. I first saw it late night downtown LA, by myself, and afterward came out into the night transformed; I knew I'd just seen something special. Over 4 decades later, it's aura has only grown. See it, for sure.
Taxi Driver is an exceptionally well made motion picture. It was the first masterpiece in Martin Scorsese's young career. I love the camera work. I love the opening when the lights in the street look like a painting. Beautiful! This is one of the absolute best performances in the career of Robert De Niro. It's certainly in the same category as his brilliant performances in Raging Bull and Goodfellas. His performance in The Godfather Part II is his absolute career best, in my humble opinion. Jodie Foster gave a stunning performance as a 12 year old playing a 12 year old who is living a life that no 12 year old should ever live. This film is one for the ages. A perfect masterpiece. I highly recommend. 100/100
I personally think there are better movies and characters of those who are suffering mentally and on the verge of causing carnage. Seems that most disagree with me, but Taxi Driver is a tad overrated.
An awesome movie shows how a man from psychotic thoughts end up saving a little girl. A classic "you talking to me"??
Chef d'oeuvre tout simplement
One of the classics that many filmmakers nowadays take from. Awesome movie! “You talkin’ to me?”
Dark, gritty and amazing. Effectively shows the duality of man and the raw emotions of Travis Buckley.
Most re-watchable movie i have ever seen. The cinematography had me in a trance the whole time a MUST SEE.
You talking to me ??
