Buckle-up for this classic Luc Besson produced high-octance thriller that takes car chases to another level. Speed freak Taxi driver Daniel is forced to make a deal with the police or lose his licence. His reckless skills behind the wheel are just what the bungling local inspector needs to catch a gang of serial bank robbers. Together the misfit pair team up for the heart-pounding, adrenaline-filled chases through the streets of Marseilles. (Second Sight)
