Editorial Review: Description: Sassy hip-hop star Queen Latifah brings hilarious attitude to this hard-driving, high-octane comedy action blast! Latifah plays Belle, New York’s fastest cabbie, whose taxi-driving expertise – not to mention her loaded-to-the-max vehicle – comes in handy when a fumbling young undercover cop (Jimmy Fallon) must crack a bank robbery plot hatched by a gang of supermodels! Don’t miss this tire-squealing, stop-on-a-dime comedy with a topflight cast of stars, including NYPD Blue's Henry Simmons, Ann-Margaret and supermodel Gisele Bundchen! Amazon.com: Bumbling cop Washburn (Jimmy Fallon) is a terrible driver who loses his license and so recruits reluctant Belle (Queen Latifah) and her souped-up mega-cab after he stumbles onto a team of supermodel bank robbers. Several klutzy encounters and high-speed car chases ensue. If this sounds to you like the obvious result of a Hollywood pitch session ("Hey, let's pair some guy from Saturday Night Live with a tough-talking African-American and set them after babes on wheels!"), you're right; it doesn't mean, however, that you won't get in a few decent laughs before director Tim (Barbershop) Story's amiable time-killer falls into a steaming pile of would-be blockbuster buddy film cliches. The ever-ingratiating Latifah has long since proved her star charisma, and Fallon does an amusingly offhand parody of failed machismo. They're clearly having a good time together, and you could do worse than their company. There isn't a frame here that isn't cheaply recycled from some other lame action comedy, but if you grit your teeth for the very bumpy ride, you'll come out without too many scratches.--Steve Wiecking Average Rating:
 Rating:  - "Buckle for safety mother F**cker"I thought this movie was very good, and funny. Queen Latifah played a wondferul part. Jimmy Falllon, I really didn't know his work, so I can't judge him, but if your a Queen Latifah fan, this movie should be in your collection Rating:  - TaxiGreat order and delivery service. Recieved the DVD in new and excellent condition. Thanks Rating:  - WORST MOVIE EVER... ok maybe not, but still god-awfulWow, histerical. Another black-meets-white comedy, full of ridiculously cliched jokes and plotlines. This movie is so lame, the writer should've punched himself in the face the moment he even considered it. Bang your head against a wall for 2 hours rather than subject yourself to this crapfest. Rating:  - "The Queen Is Back In This *SPEED CHASER*"The Movie was okay it had it's moments. Could have been better though. Rating: - Taxi - Queen LatifahThis movie is such a hoot! The plot has several levels of insanity and all of them are delightful, with the solution to the "crime" a subtle, "only in NYC" surprise. The obligatory "chase" scene is hysterical. Queen Latifa and crew at their joyous best. Browse for similar items by category:
