Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

It's a very good movie! I recommend it for a family night, but there is a scene, where Vanessa (one of the robbers) "touches" Marta's (lieutenant's) breast and butt (not naked). There are some cures too. I hope there will be a second one! It's a combination between a mystery and comedy. If i would put a min age, i would put 14+.

Taxi (2004): Dir: Tim Story / Cast: Jimmy Fallon, Queen Latifah, Jennifer Esposito, Gisele Bundchen, Henry Simmons: The taxi may be a metaphor for support as Queen Latifah seems to be cop Jimmy Fallon's only form of transportation after losing his driver's license. He is a bad driver and she is a taxi driver who dreams of racing. Her taxi is equipped with every gadget one could ask for but her love life is falling apart with every missed dinner plate. Plot centres around a series of bank robberies performed by four models. This opens the door to much senseless sexual screen time with no point. Latifah and Fallon are the new duo to play off the buddy film comedy and what they deliver is just a series of dreary chase scenes. They will bicker and fight just like others before them, and they will solve the case and become stronger buddies. Director Tim Story does his best. He had success previously with Barbershop but here the script is about the same use as toilet paper. Jennifer Esposito as the Lieutenant is basically there to be body searched by one of the female criminals. The screenplay is about as terrible as Fallon's driving record. In the 1970's there was a classic sitcom that regarded taxis and their drivers. Watching several episodes of that would be superior viewing to this. Perhaps the best idea would be to place this film on the ground and see how many taxi cabs swerve to miss it, or appropriately do it in. Score: 2 / 10

Despite all of the bad reviews, I found this movie to be funny! I love Queen Latifah's sassy and sarcastic humor. Jimmy Fallon is also a goof ball in this movie. The best scene in this film was when Andy is trying to pull out of a parallel parking space, but fails to do so and continuously keeps crashing into the cars in front and back of him. However, other than those two, there weren't many other well-known actors in this film. Some of the chase scenes were also very slow moving in my opinion. I also noticed that the city location changed frequently throughout the film. While it may not be hard to notice, at one point they are driving through New York and then another point they are driving through Los Angeles (you can see the palm trees and the traditional California traffic lights.)

This movie is the poop standard for bad movies. In fact I've frequently referred to it as one of the worst movies of all time. Bad acting from bad actors telling bad jokes with an even worse plot and then some. Now if I were a movie critic I would say something like, "I would 'steer' clear of this movie." Because every movie critic has to start their critique of how bad the plot is by writing the worst pun they can think of.. OK I'll just say this "This movie is awful."and a couple more lines to pass the IMDb standard for reviews... which is kind of a joke anyways because 5 of my friends and I got up in the theater and walked out because we'd rather walk around town than watch the rest of this movie (I ended up finishing it later on DVD, which I regretted immediately.. sad story, back then I thought I had to watch movies to the end..). Anyways, so IMDb makes you write 10 lines, but their "weighted average" on movie titles are so far removed from what the public thinks about them it's sad.. but here you go, I wrote your 10 lines so accept my review now. sorry for anyone else who kept reading this review. I just wanted to warn people to stay away from it..
