Mini Retro Review: Taxi (2004) #badmovies

Taxi
2004
Action Comedy


Humourless, poorly casted, gags are unfunny, Taxi was a massive flop; a remake of the 1998 French film and one that was so successful it spawned 4 more movies. Written and produced by Luc Besson about a cop and a cab driver who, in this version, team up to bring down a group of female Brazilian bank robbers. Supposedly an action-comedy, the humour is non-existent with stunts and action propping up the movie. Queen Latifah and Jimmy Fallon, years before he became the host of The Tonight Show, are a total mismatch as a buddy pairing, it just didn't work. Most of it doesn't work, it's so inept, it is surprising it was penned by Besson himself. A laugh-free comedy, the misery ended after 40 mins when I stopped tuning in. 


Is It Worth Watching?

No
