Taxi



Jimmy Fallon (Saturday Night Live) and Queen Latifah (Barbershop) team up in this silly, silly, silly movie. It is funny, they both do admirable jobs with what they've got. Ann-Margret pops in as Fallon's lush mother - and she is very funny.

There's not alot to say about this movie. Queen Latifah drives a super souped up taxi and Fallon is a detective that loses his license due to poor driving. He hops in her cab to get to a bank robbery and they take off together and stay together through the movie tracking down the bad guys. If you love car chases, this is your movie. Lots of car talk, car engines, cars and some incredible driving.

The opening scene is the most incredible stunt riding we've seen on a bicycle! There is not enough poetic license in the world to tempt us to try to believe that it's Queen Latifah on that bike ( puhleeeese) but the stunt rider did a GREAT job!

Pueblo Tinseltown was the theater - popcorn was fresh. This one is a 3 for Fun!
