Product Description

"Come out and take it, you dirty yellow-bellied rat ." Independent cabbie Matt Nolan is primed to let his fists and handgun deliver payback after a big taxi firm uses intimidation and violence to squeeze out small-timers. James Cagney plays Nolan, a role suited to his pugnacious, post-The Public Enemy persona. Ramming rival cabs that have hemmed him into a too-tight parking spot, slugging the hoofer (George Raft) who bested him in a dance contest, tracking down the killer of his brother, Cagney shows why he was the era's "terrier of the screen" (Mordaunt Hall, The New York Times). Loretta Young costars as the femme who tries to tame Nolan. And Roy Del Ruth directs this swiftie as if his cab were waiting and the meter running.

Dated

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 16, 2022

Verified Purchase

This movie—about tough-guy cabbie Cagney whose explosive temper takes him to the brink of murder—is dated and dull. Sure, Cagney is brimming with charm, life, and energy. We even see him enter a dance contest and we get to enjoy his grave and power as a dancer. And we see Cagney speaking fluent Yiddish to a customer who apparently wants a ride to Ellis Island. But the recurrent “joke” of Cagney threatening his young bride with violence, and even slapping her and pushing her down, quickly wears very thin. Loretta Young, ethereal and with a posh accent, seems to come from another world, and we wonder what this nice-mannered young woman can see in this rough, impulsive, threatening young man.
Ah well. Such was the Hollywood version of a Dead End kid all grown up and his long-suffering woman.
I’m donating my copy to the library.

Good movie with Jamrs Cagney & Loretta Young! Loved hearing him speak Yiddish!

"Always thinking of getting even . . . can only ruin both of our lives"

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

Taxi! is a good crime melodrama. James Cagney, Loretta Young, and George E. Stone (“the Runt” in Boston Blackie movies) are excellent, and David Landau plays a good villain, as always. I’m not bothered, as some are, by Leila Bennett’s portrayal of the ever-chattering waitress at Goldfarb’s Fish Grotto who says “I don’t like fish.”

But Cagney’s supposedly loveable hot-head falls a bit short of loveable and Young’s character is way too forgiving. Bad decisions are normal in crime films, but here they’re sometimes unconvincing.

The dance contest, featuring George Raft, gives the stars a chance to dance and shows how easily Cagney’s character loses his temper, but it might have been given further significance in the plot. The cars are historically interesting, as are views of Times Square, such as one showing the large neon advertisement for Pepsodent toothpaste, which was there from 1930 to 1933, and Loew’s State Theater, there from 1921 to 1987 in various forms. Unfortunately, a performance by black singers and musicians is staged in a plantation-like atmosphere at the “Cotton Pickers Club,” a fictional version of the historical Cotton Club.

Not a restoration if that's what you're looking for

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 24, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'm not commenting on the move, just the DVD quality.

Well, a little on the movie. It's a typical James Cagney film, which means if you like him you'll like this. Not one of his best, in my opinion - personally I am partial to "Strawberry Blonde" and "Yankee Doodle Dandy" - but I'm glad I own it.

Just note that this is not what I would call a restoration. Image quality is fine, comparable to what you'd see if you watched it on TV. But, having recently watched restorations of "Key Largo" and "Casablanca", I couldn't help but be a little disappointed. The restored films jump off the screen - they are so sharp and clear they could have been made yesterday. It didn't diminish my enjoyment of the movie, but it didn't enhance it either.

early Loretta Young

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 14, 2012

Verified Purchase

If you don't appreciate looking at life in the early 1930s, if you don't like the music from the early 1930s, if you don't like the snazzy cars from the early 1930s, if you don't like seeing the feminine clothes and pretty fluffy soft & shorter hair on women in the early 1930s, if you aren't interested in seeing movie stars long dead who were very young and appealing in the early 1930s, don't buy this dvd. My parents were a really good-looking couple with 2 kids and one on the way, but they lived from hand to mouth during this period known as the Great Depression. In many respects this movie reminded me of them. I loved this movie the first time I saw it on Turner Classic Movies. When it became available on Amazon.com, I had to own it so I could view it every few months and think about my pretty mom. She looked so much like Loretta Young in the early 1930s - - not so much in later periods. Now you may understand why I gave it 5 stars. There are many other early 1930s movies with Loretta Young I already have and enjoy; most notably, "Midnight Mary" "Employees Entrance" and "Man's Castle." She was quite a good little actress for being only 19 and 20 years old in 1932/1933.

A Hidden Treasure for Cagney Fans

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 31, 2012

Verified Purchase

Looking for something to watch on my new ipad I came across this early Cagney flick, watched it in one sitting, very entertaining as a story and fascinating from the standpoint of Cagney's career. He plays a cabbie for a small company fighting the dirty tactics of the dominant cab company in NYC. As always he is the compelling character in every scene. Tough sometimes, charming sometimes.
Beautiful Loretta Young holds her own as Cagney's "girl".

A little "fun fact": Cagney speaks fluent Yiddish in his opening scene. I lived for many years in Switzerland where "Swiss German" is spoken. Well I was shocked to hear Cagney speaking what I thought was Swiss German! Who knew? But found out it was Yiddish which is very close to Swiss German.

Cagney also displays his dancing talents with a mean Foxtrot, and a short tap dance.

Enjoyed the story and acting. One of the few Cagney movies I didn't see on TV as a kid.

Worth a Watch - Once

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 19, 2021

As good as Jimmy Cagney was as an actor he couldn't save this miscast, misdirected, less than mellow mello drama of pre-code Hollywood, but if you're a fan of his and of Hollywood movie history and of unbelievably lame stories that are pulled off like live chicken feathers, and you have an hour of your time you want to waste, please, be my guest and give it a look.

Glad I was able to get a DVD of this movie .
