    I pity the fool....

    It's vulgar, sexist, racist and extremely stupid in several parts. Perfect family picture.

    Any film with Mr. T, Gary Busey and Barney Miller's Det. Wojohovitz as cabbies who try to foil a kidnapping plot, find missing violins and learn all about self-worth is a solid rent, especially when mixed with the "Animal House" slobbery that makes this crass crew so likeable.

    Don't go in expecting Preston Sturges. Maybe Laurel and Hardy....

    Three stars. And if you want a cabbie to drive you to Hell, travel light.
