Taxi 2 (also called Taxi Taxi) is a French film directed by Gérard Krawczyk and released in 2000. It is a sequel to Taxi written by Luc Besson and directed by Gérard Pirès in 1998. It was followed by Taxi 3 in 2003.

A Japanese minister of defence is traveling to Paris to sign a weapons contract between Japan and France, but first, he is visiting Marseille to view and rate the city police's anti-gang tactics (using fake attacks on him). During the visit, however, he is kidnapped by a group working for the Japanese yakuza. Emilien (Frédéric Diefenthal) is determined to rescue the minister and detective Petra (Emma Sjöberg), his girlfriend who was also kidnapped, and restore the honour of his department. Once again, speed demon taxi-driver Daniel (Samy Naceri) is called upon to save the day with his high-speed driving skills.

Taxi 2 was released on Playstation several years after the film that was about the Marseilles and Parisian tribulations of Daniel and Emilien, the two heroes of the full-length film.

The title takes some sequences of the film and transpose them in tests of driving the white taxi. Note already that there are only nine missions and only one playable vehicle. The levels follow the chronological order of the film. You will start in Marseilles where you will have to lead a pregnant woman to the hospital, then it will be necessary to lead Emilien to see Petra, arrive at the hour at Lily, to lead his father to the airport, the ninjas which captured the Japanese minister, etc
