Taxi 1: Former pizza delivery guy Daniel is speed crazy. Embarking on a new career as a taxi driver his specially modified car is so fast even police radar can't spot him! When he unwittingly gives a high-speed ride to police officer Emilien he is forced to accept a deal to keep his license: a stint as Emilien's police car driver. Now on the other side of the law Daniel becomes the unlikely mastermind behind an investigation into a gang of German bank robbers. Aided by his girlfriend Emilien's mother and a whole squad of pizza delivery boys Daniel and Emilien join forces with hilarious consequences to foil the robbers on foot on scooters and of course in Taxis. Taxi 2: The Japanese Secretary of State for Defence is visiting France on a special mission to invest in French anti terrorism expertise. At the end of his trip he will sign a contract worth several billion dollars to the French government. However he is kidnapped by a group of Yakusa. Against their better judgement Daniel the cab driver and Emilien his friend the policeman become involved in a string of adventures in order to rescue the diplomat and ensure the contract is signed. Packed with excitement and energy Taxi 2 follows Daniel and Emilien's adventures in this all action sequel to Taxi.
This high-energy Dirty Harry in Japan stars Jean Reno (The Professional) as a maverick Paris cop with sledgehammer fists and a short temper. Promoted to sudden fatherhood when he "inherits" a spunky Japanese daughter (Ryoko Hirosue) he never knew, he becomes her droopy guardian angel, protecting her from an army of yakuza gangsters. Written and produced by Luc Besson, the former fashionista director of Euro-sleek shoot-'em-ups, this colorful B-movie blast is as gritty as an oil slick on a water slide but packed with explosive action. Director Gerard Krawczyk punctuates his gunfights with the Hong Kong school of recoil (bullets blast victims across the screen) and an undercurrent of humor. As long as you don't lean too hard on such niggling details as logic, legality, and the laws of physics, this silly, splashy, family bonding bulletfest is a spirited good time.
A gang of thieves calling themselves the Santa Claus Gang are wreaking havoc and the police can't keep up... More high-octane automotive thrills from the pen of French producer Luc Besson!
