Besson revealed a knack for dry humour in Leon, with Jean Reno's
unforgettable asssasin who loved to drink milk and tend to his plants.
Taxi has a wickedly sharp script, full of brilliant one-liners.
Reverting to his native tongue, this is a world away from the stilted
and cliche-ridden dialogue of
The Fifth Element.
The laughs come thick
and almost as fast as these vehicles tearing around Marseilles. Any
thoughts of the French lacking a decent sense of humour are well and
truly banished. This is probably the funniest film you are likely to see
for a long time.
In terms of extra features, the disc is admittedly threadbare. Nothing
from Besson, Pires or any of the cast. Standard filmographies are all
that's offered aside from an obligatory trailer. However, it looks and
sounds terrific - despite being only Dolby Digital 2.0 and a 2.35:1
Letterbox ratio that's non-anamorphic. The subtitles are clear and easy
to follow, and allow the essence and flow of the dialogue to be
conveyed.
Confident, colourful and utterly cinematic, Taxi stands head and
shoulders above the competition. After the almost-as-exhilarating Run
Lola Run, it's clear that European cinema is putting both Britain and
America to shame when it comes to producing this type of film. Only the
lack of extras blight an otherwise excellent package.
