Review: Taxi (SPOILERS-ENTER AT RISK)
#1
I actually just saw this film last night, but it was fantastic. I am a humorous kind of guy; I have an immense sense of humor. And that isn't bragging, when you know you have a special trait, you might as well share it with the world, no? Anyway, this film was hilarious - Jimmy Fallon, recently left SNL and this was his first major film. Queen Latifah also stars, and both are equally hilarious.

By far, the quote that made me laugh the most in Taxi was by Washburn after inhaling nitrous oxide intended for his woman enemies:

Quote:I sound like Barry White's illegitimate, white grandson!

You have to see the movie to know the exact context: but it was laugh your ass of funny for me. Another quote that made little to no sense for me was when Washburn said:

Quote:Men are like cats, ya know? Sure, we'll play with a ball of yarn, unless you want us to play with the ball of yarn. Trick is, hide the ball of yarn.

But don't hide it where you can't find it, ya know? Like, 'Hey, what's the ball of yarn doing in the fride?' Whatever. Ya know what I'm saying?

That had me laughing because it makes almost no sense. The storyline basically involves 4 sexy woman robbers who have planned out several bank robberies. Jimmy Fallon (Washburn) is forced to take action after his vehicle is revoked and he believes he must redeem himself. Queen Latifah's character (Belle Williams) gets unwillingly involved, but feels compelled to help Washburn in order to get her prized cab returned back to her.

I recommend that anyone that hasn't seen this film, should.

DE's Rating: 9.5/10 for humor and casting.
