The Story
Rainbow Taxi is no ordinary transportation company. Formed to offer revenge where the arm of the law failed, this group of vigilantes work together to bring their own brand of justice. Through a series of heartbreaking cases, the team finds closure for those who have been marginalized by the corrupt law system and the wealthy politicians who support it. But when a savvy prosecutor starts to make guess their game, their company and their mission are in jeopardy. Can she look the other way when the company’s lawless behavior brings about the justice that the law can’t?
Should I Watch
“Taxi Driver” is a dark, gritty action drama that features an amazing cast and interesting stories based on real life cases. It begins as a more case based crime drama before moving into a more over-arching theme for the second half of the series. There is a focus on fighting and action scenes, so if you don’t enjoy watching an invincible hero take down 12 of his opponents in violent and creative ways, you probably won’t enjoy this drama. Also, the violence suffered by the victims is heartbreaking and touches on some sensitive subjects if you are triggered by those kinds of situations. “Taxi Driver” never pretends to be a light, fun drama. But it is a thought-provoking look at the legal system and those who fall through the cracks of true justice. The Rainbow Taxi crew each have their own tragic backstories that lend themselves to interesting character development and give insight into each members’ strengths and weaknesses within the team. I give “Taxi Driver” a 9 out of 10 ramen.
