This world exists with two types of people. People who can’t stand this movie, and Liars!
Joker definitely took A LOT of inspiration from this. It was an okay film; definitely a hot take. The storyline between Travis and Betsy went nowhere; I didn’t care for it. It jumps storylines a bunch. Trying to kill the president, why? A 2 hour film that could have been shorter.

A pretty good movie, but a movie with no flaws doesn’t mean it’s great. A movie that is great deeply affects me after watching it. But this movie has no major flaws except the lackluster plot. Probably has a lot of hidden meanings that I didn’t pick up. But a very good film. 8/10
I think this is pretty objectively a good movie, but a lot of it just didn’t work for me. To start with the good, I think Robert De Niro was fantastic in this role. He plays this character so well, and you completely buy into the mentality and emotions of this complex character. Everything from a…
It’s a freaking classic !! Martin Scorsese directed it back in 76 and Robert De Niro plays the lead character Travis Bickle a lonely taxi driver who’s a little bit off his rocker. He’s becomes obsessed with rescuing a young prostitute played by Jodie foster from her grimy life. X

Taxi Driver is a disturbing, frightening film, but it has the desperate excitement that goes with its vision of the city. Scorsese's verminous New York is a descendant of Baudelaire's anthill Paris, Eliot's unreal London, the nightmare Berlin of such German films as Fritz Lang's M. In this vision the great modern city is the crossroads where fenced-off forces break loose and collide. The overworld and the underworld embrace each other in a dance of mutual lusts that can only lead to violence. [1 Mar 1976, p.82]
Scorsese’s direction always keeps us uncomfortably close to Travis’ subjectivity, whether we’re prowling night time Manhattan or gazing into a glass of Alka-Seltzer until the whole world disappears into the healing hiss.
Hitchcockian unease permeates the film, but so too does a Godardian use of space and a Bressonian focus on obsession heighten the mounting sense of dread. These elements are groovy for film buffs but are mere icing on the proverbial cake; you don’t need to be in the know to relish Scorsese’s mastery of the form, and what may astonish even more than the creative prowess is how compulsively entertaining the results are.
