They need not have worried. Despite its more modern styling, the new cab, which was introduced last month and is known as the Metrocab, is at least equal in comfort to the older models.

Yet nothing seems exploitative. In a bravura opening, a wild chase ends with a shoot-out at the house of an anonymous family. After the carnage is over...
