Haven't seen the American one but I can't see how it could be good, other than the addition of hot chicks.

DO NOT go see this unless you have seen the French movie Taxi first.

Gotta love the dismount the Vespa rider does at the start of the French Taxi... That opening scene is one of the best in the movie. The French one was a good movie. I can't see how this one would be anything but a lame arse American POS.

Americans have taken action to new lows. I mean sure the story is unbelievable so its meant to be a thrill ride and fun and purposely over the top. But I have some questions; Why is Queen latifah in it?... why is she driving a riced up taxi that can jump 120m bridge gaps. Why is the lead cop that comedian who isnt funny.

Better casting wouldve made it good imo.

Queen Latifat in a taxi trying to jump 120m = massif unbalanced car and certain disaster. Hmmm, perhaps it is worth seeing

If you have seen and are a fan of the French Taxi movies, I'm sure you won't need to be told to avoid this like the plague. I refuse to watch it! Razz

From what I've seen from the trailer, the only similarity between the Hollywood Taxi and the original French one is that there's a crazy taxi in the film.

i dont think the French one is in stores, you have to watch it on SBS, or on Foxtel (international movie).

I don't think its a 406 in taxi in the euro version its a 405 cos its square 406's are very rounded. The other similarity is the whoele plot, ie the police guy doesn't have a licence and how they trap them at the end on the jump. I refuse to watch the hollywood version but have seen enough from the ads to rulle it off as trash. Taxi is regularly on SBS, and its damn cool. Gotta love the way he smokes the mercs.

No its definitely a 406. In Taxi 2 and 3, I'm pretty sure they use the series 2 406 whereas in Taxi 1 its a series 1 406.

I got Taxi 1&2 off Amazon in a box set, you can't get it here and you need an all region DVD to play it.

I'd swear it was a 405 in the 1st taxt and 406's in the 2nd and 3rd. couldn't find a ref for it in any reviews. Someone needs to check the release dates for the cars vs the movies.

I've got Taxi 1 & 2 also. Smile

Oh, and I'm pretty sure it's a 406. I remember the scene where he got clocked doing 306 when driving his gf's father to the airport.

i havent seen the french one, all i am saying is that if someone offered me $100 to sit through it again, i would rather pimp myself out as a gay prostitute, and i dont have any intentions of having someone ram me in the poo hole any time soon. Rolling Eyes

Sorry for the rant but people must be warned, it is a fucking shithouse movie
