User Reviews. This is an offbeat, often funny film about a taxman who is investigating a crime when he meets a Russian family and eventually begins to care about them. There are twists but it is mostly a character driven film. Joe Pantoliano is (as usual) great as the taxman. Elizabeth Berkley does a good job as the Russian daughter.
Taxman: Directed by Avi Nesher. With Joe Pantoliano, Wade Dominguez, Elizabeth Berkley, Michael Chiklis. A tax investigator chasing a tax evader stumbles over a series of bloody murders and gets involved in an investigation with a rookie cop despite his boss' orders to stay out of the way.

Sep 17, 1999 · In TAXMAN, a state tax investigator in New York City must gain the trust of a lovable Russian Jew to nab some Russian mobsters running a multi-million dollar tax evasion scam. Joe Pantoliano plays Al Benjamin the taxman, and Michael Chiklis of TV’s THE COMMISH plays the Russian Jew, Andre Rubakov.
Aug 5, 2019 · “As good as paté from Zabars.” Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz. Taxman is a wonderfully played cynical, offbeat, low-key thriller with comic undertones, also exhibiting plenty of local atmosphere.
An odd, unexpectedly interesting little movie. Writer-director Avi Nesher and co-screenwriter Roger Berger -- upon whose real-life investigations the film is based -- deliver on the hard-boiled promise of this low-key thriller with plenty of gritty twists and turns.
