Do not hail this 'Taxi'
"TAXI" (20th Century Fox Pictures, rated PG-13 for "language, sexuality and brief violence"), no relation whatsoever to the old TV show, gets my vote as the most ridiculously unbelievable movie of the year. From unreal start to unsatisfying finish, the fatuous film has enough holes to drive through a whole fleet of cabs. Oscar nominee Queen Latifah ("Chicago") and "Saturday Night Live" ex-member Jimmy Fallon (in has first major feature film role) star in the highly unlikely buddy comedy. It's the wrong vehicle for both of them.
