Synopsis: A mentally unstable Vietnam war veteran works as nighttime taxi driver in a city whose perceived decadence and sleaze feeds his urge to violently lash out, attempting to save a teenage prostitute in the process.

Review: Taxi Driver is a beloved cult classic film that has enthralled generations.  The post-modern tale of a working man driven to the edge by the insanity of the modern world.  The film is making it onto blu-ray for the first time in a fantastic new boxed set with TONS of extras.  The question in everyone's mind when a classic like this comes to blu-ray is how does it look?   Well, it looks AMAZING.  Taxi Driver has one of the best high-definition transfers I've seen for some time, at 6x the resolution of the DVD previous release!  A MUST for any fan of the film.
