Taxi Driver is without a doubt powerful, effective movies ever made. De Niro plays Bickle, a NY cab driver with stark reality. All actors are dead on target, including Jodie Foster and Harvey Keitel. Bickle gets sick of the people he sees around him and takes it upon himself to rid the world of these people. The climax of the film is one of the most intense in all of film's history, as well as one of the most brilliantly filmed. Taxi Driver is not only an aestetically pleasing movie, but also one of those that will have you pondering about it well afterward.
