Taxi zum Klo treats sex seriously without sacralizing it; throughout the film, Ripploh reveals a wry intelligence about the eternal dilemma of monogamy versus promiscuity. Full Review

This is a film about joy, despite its gloomy moments. It is furthermore a time capsule of the 1970s on a budget -- design, morals, food.

A milestone in the history of both free speech and the representation of gays in the cinema. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Three decades ago, this was seen as a challenging "issue" movie. Now it looks more like a daring, acid black comedy filmed on the hoof. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- A refreshingly non-judgmental and amusing portrait of homosexuality in the pre-AIDS era...

Rating: 4/5 -- This isn't a moral tale: it's rather a frank and open appraisal of the German gay scene of the time, sometimes roughly made yet invested with humour and irony.
