Highly Overrated But Still Good
Good concept, poorly executed.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Warning: I'm not going to spoil anything about this movie, but I will mention things, that happened in the previous installments! With some issues resolved from part one (and two), most famously the cop and his now girlfriend, new problems had to arise. Unfortunately they didn't quite fit the bill. Or in other words: They weren't funny enough.With this movie it seemed that the Taxi franchise died out. It wasn't the lack of any plot (the first two didn't have any either), but the lack of good jokes and especially new ideas. The likable character remained, but you can also watch them in part one and two. And although it was a brave decision Emma S. took, by playing in this movie in her condition, it didn't really help the movie (quite the contrary).
Interesting. As much as I liked Taxi II (I haven't seen the first yet), I was very disappointed by this movie and barely laughed. Most of the time I had the impression that I was as bored as the actors seemed to be throughout the movie and that they never enjoyed the movie either.The whole story is very unimaginative; the jokes are lousy; the action scenes are poor (a show-off of what is technically possible as stunts leaving the viewer mostly indifferent); the characters have deteriorated to bad parodies.In all, a movie you should try to avoid watching to preserve the good memories of the first movie(s).
Taxi 3 is a movie for 12-year old kids who like cars. They will enjoy this movie from beginning to end. But I only enjoyed two jokes: the smoking scene in the car and the drugstore owner's daughter. But the rest...average.
This movie is very entertaining with lots of comedy, car chase, and amazing stunts. I have seen the first Taxi and it is equally entertaining. I was expecting the sequeal would have to be bad because most of them the sequel are. Well, suprised, suprised it wasn't bad. It is very funny and entertaining to the amazing stunts. Although, I am a car guy so I loved all of the car chase scene, there are a little of romance in there as well. Here is a short summary of the story. It is about bank robbers that whose dressed up as santa claus.
