- There is more to this story than this review lets on. It reflects all different facets of society over one driver's shift. As he starts out, he seems cold and ignorant, but his character develops as different Chicago riders come and go. His character shows through when he tells a woman the truth about one of the guys he has in his cab. One highlight is the amount of cameos by well-known faces who seem to be doing this film for the craic (fun, "kicks"). The cab driver reacts well to the madness surrounding him, and by the end of the shift the viewer might share his weariness. This low-budget film deals with crackheads, stoners, posh randy lawyers, irate Pakistanis, and the high and lows of the working day.—Michael A Hunter <thewaas@yahoo.co.uk>
- An examination of 14 hours in the life of a Chicago cab driver as he picks up fares from the good and bad parts of the city and emotionally connects to many of his passengers, including a depressed rape victim whom he longs to help, but knows there is nothing he can do. Other fares include a drug runner and a manic race to get a pregnant woman to the hospital. Little is shown of the cabbie's own life, so the viewer has no real emotional connection to his life.—John Sacksteder <jsackste@bellsouth.net>
