...witty, charming, rigorously unsentimental and fair to all its characters. Though none of the principals are professional actors, the performances are acute and convincing. The film, made in 16-mm for about $50,000, is handsomely photographed and edited with precision. Frank Ripploh is not simply a gay exhibitionist; he is a film maker of promise and achievement, and Taxi is a big step toward liberating the screen...
