Summary: Buy it!!
Review: This is one of the basic films of the last quarter of the 20th century and this DVD offers a good chance to own it in a version remastered both in audio and video under the control of Scorsese in person!!
Audio and video tracks are both pleasing. The images are faithful to the movie experience, while the DS audio track is more effective and involving than many DD tracks we're used listenin' to.

Summary: THIS IS THE BEST ENGLISH LANGUAGE FILM EVER MADE
Review: This movie created good modern cinema -- do the right thing & pulp fiction etc. It showed MacDonalds TV silly greeting cards --- it showed America as it was and how a lot of people live life.There is a documentary feel to it. The screenplay has a lifelike feel with surprises throughout. It takes its time and then expodes.The acting directing score etc all flawless. This movie was the template unfortunately rather then follow it for the most part Hollywood followed Star Wars/Jaws...And where did all those OSCARS go? I mean who has EVER done a better acting job then De Niro here?

Summary: Jodie Foster, Rob DeNiro, an awsome film. AFI top 100 film!
Review: In this movie, Travis Bickle(Rob) is a lonely taxi driver in New York City. He is very cynical af everything around him and is very lonely and isolated from everyone and everything because he fails again and again in his simple quest of human relationships and companionship. He becomes fed up with the scum and filth he encounters daily in NYC and becomes more and more isolated. His life changes one night when he runs into this young prostitute Iris(Jodie Foster) and dicides that he must help her, recue her from the scum of the city. I really dont want to give this movie away but it made it onto the American Film Institute's (AFI) 100 best american films list. It was put on that list for a reason. You'll wanna own this movie.

Summary: I loved it
Review: Great flick. If only Mean Streets was as good... I totally agree with A Viewer, the ending was perfect until they proclaimed Robert De Niro a hero, which crashed its impact. Jodie Foster was actually pretty hot in that for a 14-year old, with a good performance too. Great performance by De Niro, with also a young Albert Brooks that took me a while to see. I wish people really had the balls to go out and kill criminals like that.

Summary: Where is the masterpiece?
Review: I'm in the middle of those who say it is terrible and those who say it is a masterpiece. Certainly, 25 years of movies and (I assume) imitation can make it seem less of an impact film. But it is very slow. It has only one dramatic moment (the climax). The character is inexplicable many times. The script is so minimal that I sometimes wanted to yell- "say your line already!!"
Of course DeNiro is good but I don't see the part as one of his most demanding.
But Cybil Shepard is drop dead gorgeous!! Her eyes are worth the rental fee alone!

Summary: Classic but......
Review: I loved Taxi Driver . I think it is a classic. The only thing that has always bothered me about it was the ending. it would have made for a much better and grittier film if it ended with the last violent scene with Di Nero passing out and the camera panning from above. Instead it was "hollywood-ized" by showing that De Niro's character lives, sees Cyble Shepard and is proclaimed a hero. In my opinion, that last part ruins the whole film.

Summary: Scorsese's 70's masterpiece in all of its widescreen glory!
Review: One of the great things about DVD is the opportunity to collect great films and watch them in widescreen format the way the filmmaker intended. The image in letterbox is the image that was shown on the theater screen. Why anyone would want a full screen of less movie is a mystery to me. Oh well, I digress.In this Taxi Driver special edition DVD, we have one of the best films of the 70's on a great disc with one of the best documentaries out there. Travis Bickle, our antihero, is a cabbie who suffers from insomnia and wants to "work long hours". This is how he meets many of the strange characters he comes in contact with including Sport (a pimp played by Harvey Keitel) and a young prostitute named Iris played by Jodie Foster. Before that however, Travis becomes fixated by Betsy, who works in a campaign office. Travis, who is extremely lonely and shy, eventually works up the nerve to go into the office and tell Betsy that he'd like to volunteer. This is actually just a way for Travis to ask Betsy out on a date, which he does. However, that date turns out a disaster as Travis takes Betsy to a theater showing an X rated film and she is repelled by the entire experience. That causes her to avoid Travis and he eventually comes back to here office angry and looking for a confrontation. As to one viewer's criticism that this simply isn't believeable that he would take her to a porn film, I say to the contrary, he simply doesn't know any better. We're not dealing with a ladies' man here who knows what is and is not proper to do on dates. It is after this that Travis begins to slip further and further into his depressed, isolated world and he eventually feels the need to take Iris under his wing and protect her (as he sees it) from Sport who he views as pure scum. The final act invloves a presidential assassination attempt and a famous violent scene involving Travis, Sport, Iris and several others (I'm trying not to get to involved in the third act here) that I won't go into. More than anything, Taxi Driver is a character study of Travis Bickle and the isolation and loneliness that take their toll on him. This is a different world that director Scorsese and writer Schrader invite you to experience, if not really enjoy. In addition, there is one of the best documentaries here that I've seen. You'll learn more about the film than you ever knew before, unless your name is DeNiro, Scorsese, or Schrader.
