It's a powerful film about male depression and isolation. It's politically incorrect...which works and feels authentic. I could totally relate to this character in my twenties. I love the shot of when he puts the alka selzter in the glass. The slow motion towards the bubbling water shows the boiling rage. Also, he only sees women in two ways...madonna or whore. The sting at the end shows nothing will change for him. I also drove a taxi cab...so I understand it even more the older I get.
I really dug it for 75% of the runtime. And thought the last 25% was ok. All in all, good film and a very raw depiction of what you said about depression and isolation. I think my expectations of him going full mass shooter and then it not happening is what through me off. Not the films fault though. Thanks for watching!
