Amazon.co.uk Review:
Taxi Driver is the definitive cinematic portrait of loneliness and alienation manifested as violence. It is as if director Martin Scorsese and screenwriter Paul Schrader had tapped into precisely the same source of psychological inspiration ("I just knew I had to make this film", Scorsese would later say), combined with a perfectly timed post-Watergate expression of personal, political and societal anxiety. Robert De Niro, as the tortured, ex-Marine cab driver Travis Bickle, made movie history with his chilling performance as one of the most memorably intense and vividly realised characters ever committed to film. Bickle is a self-appointed vigilante who views his urban beat as an intolerable cesspool of blighted humanity. He plays guardian angel for a young prostitute (Jodie Foster), but not without violently devastating consequences. This masterpiece, which is not for all tastes, is sure to horrify some viewers, but few could deny the film's lasting power and importance. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - One of my favourate films
I had to study this film twice in college once for a postmodernism class and the other for film. Studying it has only made me love it more. It's a great film with great shots and just has so much. I could write an essay about it and if I go on too much I probably will. Just look at this film closely look at the way the camera moves and the edits. Also look at the main characters development his isolation, inability to relate to anyone and delusions.

- A Very Overated Film
This film is very overated, I dont understand why it gets the praise it does. I found it very boring and no way near as good as other scorcese films such as Goodfellas. The scene thats most memorable of Robert De Niro the famous "Are You Looking At Me", I thought was going to be said to somebody else but its just him in the mirror talking to himself very disapointing, I expected a lot from this film but it gave very little. I recommend you to watch the film but please dont regard it as a classic ... Read More
Rating: - appearences as a bad haircut are important
I like Travis, this Taxi Driver. I understand people which wants to maintain so pure as him is a little suspicious (and when not, he invites Cibyll Shepherd to a pornographic movie!) This man isn't centred, as that woman is herself a pure temptation he doesn't know how to profit.
Travis is a very good worker, a busy taxi driver and a fundamentalist criminal but at end, candid and innocent, this is, very dangerous in actual society. He shots and kills several times, but we are speaking of ... Read More

- Taxi Driver
'Taxi Driver' is a dark film looking at one mans alienation from society and life around him. It looks at how he gradually descends into his own form of madness and you really get a sense for how he feels through De Niros chilling portrayal. The lack of sleep and night shifts Travis (the main protagonist) works only serve to isolate him further from reality and life. When he meets a young political campaigner and a prostitute, both of these relationships spur him into dark action against the scum ... Read More
