Taxi to the Dark Side doesn't tell us anything new about the growing use of torture in US foreign policy; in fact, the film plainly credits the New York Times as its primary source. But this is where moving pictures really do come in handy — director Alex Gibney (Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room) never sacrifices detail in his reports of torture cases from Guantánamo to Afghanistan, taking time to connect the individual events so that it's nearly impossible to dismiss the atrocities as the work of isolated maniacs. Be forewarned: a neutral documentary this is not.
