This movie is not as good as Taxi or Taxi 2, but it has a different feel and charm to it, which makes it yet another great Taxi movie. There is alot of comedy in this movie and there are no bad guys in fancy cars who daniel has to beat in a race, instead this film shows a maturer Daniel and Emelien facing fatherhood, but not before saving the city from a gang of robbing Santa Clauses. Its also different in that its set in winter time and that Emelien and Daniel realise they have to change and grow up to become good fathers. There is one scene in particular which was fantastic and that was when the car converted into a sort of snowmobile and drove down a mountain. This is something i have never seen before and as always with the Taxi movies, it was real and there were very little special effects involved. The fact that all the stunts are real is what makes it so good.

This is not an action packed adventure like the first two films, which is why i think it is good. Its takes a different approach instead of taking the risk of boring us with the same old car chases as the previous two films have. This is a nice film, its funny, has some amazing stunts and brings the Taxi adventures to a happy and mature ending. I would recommend this film to anyone who has seen the first two and loved them. Again its not as good as the first two, but it is still a great film that i enjoy watching again and again.

Rating: 5 / 5

I am writing this as a massive fan of the first Taxi and the soundtracks to all three films. However, I felt compelled to review this realistically after seeing the 5 star rating it currently enjoys.

On every level, this is an incoherent rehash of the first two films, with even less plot. That is arguably also the case for Taxi 2, but that remained watchable thanks to some great car chases, and the return of familiar characters such as Commissaire Gibert. However, this final effort to make some cash from the success of the first film is an embarrassment, lacking any plot, wit, action, or charm.

Anyone new to the series should definitely buy Taxi 1, (memorable for the spectacular car chases round Marseille) and possibly the sequel, if they fancy watching the same film set in Paris. But please leave it at that!

I loved Taxi, a superb ballance of action, plot and comedy. Taxi 2 was such a great dissapointment as the plot was weaker, the jokes poor, the action overly scripted and often badly shot, leaving just the driving to keep it together. So now we have 3.

The first thing to do on watching this is forget about the first movie. This is a fun romp where a series of jokes have been linked together by a thin plot. Once you take that attitude it is rather fun. The opening sequence is worth the rental cost alone (if you go that route), and there are other gem scenes (Daniel driving Lilly and her father).
