TAXI (1997)

Cast

Plot

Daniel, a taxi driver who loves to push his foot to the metal, gets caught speeding by the cops. In an attempt to keep his driving licence, Daniel offers to help a loser police inspector catch a gang of German bank robbers. Despite being scripted by Luc Besson (Nikita, Leon, The Big Blue) 'Taxi' seems content to be an average action flick. Despite all this, the film went down a storm at the French box office, the car chase scenes may have helped, and, at the time of writing, a sequel is well underway.
