Okay, I have very much respect for the genius of Martin Scorcese, but I really can't see what this movie is all about. I have seen it only once, but I feel that that is enough to get the overall view of this particular flick. "Taxi Driver" should have been called, "The Psychotic And Detrimental Effects Of Living In The City And Actually Caring About The World In Which We Live." Now, I know that this is exactly what this movie is about, but I don't see the genius in making a movie about it. The classic scene with DeNiro and his gun ("Are you looking at me?") is just that...classic. It shows the level to which his character has descended...he is now in a world where nothing else really matters...his revenge against a world and a system that has screwed him and everyone he meets and sees over too many times. I got a tad bit lost towards the end and I thought that I was watching a documentary about the negative effects of working in a postal office too long. I don't know, maybe if I watched it again I could find the hidden qualities and secrets that I seem to have missed on the first viewing. But for now, I would have to rate "Taxi Driver" with Scorcese's other horrid movie, "U-turn." But that is another paragraph or so. Ciao, Clyde.
