Leofwine_draca TAXI! TAXI! is a broad comedy from Singapore about the misadventures of a couple of taxi drivers and the family commitments to which they find themselves tied. It's a big step down in quality from the last Singapore film I watched, the excellent drama ILO ILO, and for a comedy film I have to say that I didn't laugh once. If you like exaggerated laughs and a brattish kid crying and screaming throughout then perhaps this is the film for you.Me, I wasn't convinced. None of the characters ring particularly true and unlike, say, Cantonese humour, I found that the laughs didn't translate well to the west. They seem very obvious and unfunny to me. The main character is a sad sack who failed in his previous career as a scientist so who is forced to make ends meet as a taxi driver; this gives him a bitter personality. Eventually he sees the error of his ways when he befriends a rival driver. A lot of the humour is based around language barriers and the like, but as I said, it's not really for me.
