Intense thriller with Fishburne as the undercover cop trying to bring down the big boys and Goldblum excellent as Fishburne's lawyer-turned-dealer partner. As Fishburne realises what a political pawn he has become, he has to re-examine his past to establish his motives. Utterly absorbing filmmaking with a hip hop soundtrack to match.

Taking little more than the car and the n find out more...

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.
