What Movie is this ?
I am trying to find the title of a British movie from the 2000s, and perhaps the last decade, set I believe in London, about a tough taxi driver, played by someone like Craig Fairbrass or Ray Stephenson, who witnesses drug dealers assaulting someone, I believe, setting fire to them, and he attacks them, then ends up with his wife and daughter in police protection. I believe the daughter's boyfriend finds her, but because of him, so does one of the crooks, who is shot dead by female police officer.

 * I can't be sure this isn't "Capital Punisment", which has a tough taxi driver, drug crime, and things going badly for the protagonist after a murder. Plot information beyond that is lacking. Card Zero  (talk) 13:00, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank You for Your help here, but this is not the movie. I have an idea it was made at least five years later, but certainly the taxi driver was a tough sort, who would not lie down for anyone. I have a photo of the one who played his daughter, as she appears in another film, but I am not sure how to put a photo onto here. Chris the Russian Christopher Lilly  23:28, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * If it's an image file, you could upload it at tineye and possibly find out who she is or what film it's from (which is what I'd do with it). Card Zero  (talk) 00:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Here it is here.

 * This is the girl who played the daughter of the tough taxi driver in the movie in question, and here she is in another film, and in the picture was a boy with her, but I was not interested in keeping his image. She is about the same age as when she made the movie I am looking for. I figure the film was made between about 2010 and 2018, but I cannot recall how long ago I watched it, so she is at the very least twenty five now. https://tineye.com/query/5cf7d3f700e1696bac6068b22f76febf06386b9f?size=160 Chris the Russian Christopher Lilly  03:09, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Huh, 0 matches. You can't remember what this other film was? Going from one title to another with the same actor should be easy. I've ruled out every post-2003 feature film on imdb with "taxi" in the plot (about 400 of them). Should we consider made-for-TV films, and episodes of TV shows?

 * I believe it was a feature film, and it was certainly a movie. The taxi driver was one of those tough type British or Irish actors like Vinnie Jones, Craig Fairbrass, Vincent Regan, Ray Stephenson, but I have checked them out in particular. There are other actors that are similar to them, born from say the late fifties to late sixties, so he would have been from around forty to fifty - I just cannot think of any other actors that were in it - but I shall keep trying.
