Just wodering, what are some opinions on this film? I watched it not too long ago for the first time in a while and just thought it was average. I want to know, why does it stand out as one of the greatest films of all time? What's really that memorable about it?
 
To be honest with the exception of Goodfellas. I have wondered this about all of Scorsese's movies.

De Niro's performance alone is enough warrent to consider it a classic; not to mention everything else.

Normally I don't insult people for their tastes, but...yeah, if you don't like Taxi Driver, you don't like movies. Period. :cmad:
 
Great flick, didn't like it one bit the first time but it grew on me big time the 2nd time I saw it. DeNiro is brilliant ofcourse.
 
De Niro as a loner is fantastic. Love the movie very2 much ;)
 
A CLASSIC! Jodie Foster portraying a 14 years old ****e was priceless

Not only was his performance in RB better but I also consider it a better film.

I mean, Raging Bull is an all time favorite. But I think Driver is just..decent.
 
TAXI DRIVER? CAPE FEAR? CASINO? GANGS OF NEW YORK? THE AVIATOR? THE DEPARTED? Good call on Goodfellas though.:yay:


Cape Fear, Casino, Departed, Goodfellas, all great.

Gangs of NY, NY NY, Aviator all mediocre.

Leo was great in Aviator but it bored me to death, he was it's only saving grace.
 
Liked it, but I prefer 90s-2000s Scorcese over 70s-80s Scorcese.
