Chicago Cab is a 1997 American drama film directed by Mary Cybulski and John Tintori.

The film follows an unnamed taxi driver (played by Paul Dillon) over one day in Chicago, shortly before Christmas.

[2] The film received criticism for having unrealistic taxi passengers, since all of the characters have an exciting story.

[1] Roger Ebert, however, gave it three stars out of four, saying "Drama is always made of the emotional high points.

"[1] Emanuel Levy also gave a positive review: "A compassionate portrait of a lonely cabbie is at the center of the serio comedy ... [the passengers] highlight perceptively the funny, scary and dreary moments in a typical working day of a city cab driver.
