Albert comes to town with a dream of starting his own cab company but needs to motivate Harold's employees to want to make something out of themselves. It is only when Albert is kidnapped that the cabbies must decide whether or not they are loyal to Albert and his cause. D.C. Cab is neither fun or memorable to say the least, the acting was pretty damn bad and the storyline even worse to say the least. Definitely skip it for your own health. (0/10)
dworldeater DC Cab is a wildly hilarious and totally unpc comedy classic from the 80's. Adam Baldwin(best known as Animal Mother from Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket) he heads this ensemble cast that also includes Max Gail, Mr. T, Gary Busey, Bill Maher, The Barbarian Brothers and more. This comedy classic has great performances and totally off the wall, colorful characters. They certainly don't make them like this anymore. The pc police would certainly have a fit if something like this was released in today's market. There is plenty of pure insanity and laughter to be had here folks. While DC Cab is raw and unhinged, the characters have a lot of heart. DC Cab comes highly recommended and is one cinematic experience you won't forget.
ReelCheese They just don't make 'em like D.C. CAB anymore. Many filmgoers will see that as a good thing, but this blatantly '80s ensemble comedy is surprisingly entertaining. The lesser of the Baldwin brothers, Adam, stars as an ambitious young southerner who journeys to the Capital in hopes of breaking into the cab business. He's greeted by a memorable cast of zanies, including future notables such as Mr. T, Gary Busey and Bill Maher. It's not exactly Oscar calibre stuff, but the plot takes interesting twists and turns as the film plows along at a brisk pace. True, some of the humor is crude, yet the movie has an undeniable, cheesy charm. Directed by Joel Schumaker, D.C. CAB is lots of fun, but not necessarily lots of funny.
tygrkhat40 D.C. Cab is one of my favorite "stupid" movies. By that, I mean you just turn off your brain and don't think about what you're watching. The cast of D.C. Cab is a hoot; Max Gail as the loveable goof, Adam Baldwin as the earnest young man, Mr. T as the strong, moral force and the young Bill Maher, Paul Rodriguez and Marsha Warfield. And Gary Busey steals every scene he's in with his non-sequitor dialogue. Very little of what he says makes sense, but it's funny. But D.C. Cab does have a moral, that if you really believe and work hard, you can make your life better. It's a fun movie, a good way to spend a rainy afternoon. And stick around for one final scene after the credits are over.
