Best car chase? Discuss, with poll.

[Wheezer]

Bullitt and Ronin.....seems like everything I watch I compare to those two.

 

[Kadarin]

OK, I am watching the Ronin chase over again.
I had forgotten how baddass Jean Reno and Robert DeNero are.

Those two make a great combination.

 

[Linflas]

Elwood: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it.

Going with this one.

Also, I had forgotten how good the 2nd chase scene was, when Bobby and Jeano chase down the mick chick.

 

[JulesMaximus]

It's Bullitt, not bullet...and I voted for this movie in your poll. It is such a great movie and that car chase scene stands the test of time.

Blues Brothers IMO,

With Vanishing point, Bullitt, Mad Max, French Connection, and Bourne Identity all close behind....

 

[Schadenfroh]

Blues Brothers

 

[JasonSix78]

Can't pick just one, they all have great chase scenes.

Blues Brothers IMO,

With Vanishing point, Bullitt, Mad Max, French Connection, and Bourne Identity all close behind....

I forgot about Vanishing Point but the first thing I thought of was the naked chick riding the motorcycle not the car chases, although they were good as well!

How the hell is The Rock not on this? Ferrari + hummer = Amazing

[grrl]

Ronin, but French Connection was good as well.

The tank/car chase scene in Goldeneye. Where else do you get to see a T-55 doing 360s & smoking its treads.

[FoBoT]

Bullet

MotionMan

so, yeah, that isn't the movie we are talking about, what are you , twelve?

Steve McQueen drives up Marina Towers' West Tower's parking spiral and jumps off into the Chicago River

 

[Sureshot324]

The Road Warrior

All the Mad Max movies had awesome chase scenes though. I'm still hoping they'll make a 4th.

 

[Evadman]

Didn't Steve McQueen's charger in Bullitt lose like 6 hubcaps in the chase?

 

[judasmachine]

I think it was the movie Jade, or some such crap, but the movie blew bad, however the car chase was second to none.

 

[zinfamous]

definitely not Matrix. that was annoying as fuck.

I'd have to go with the one I saw on police chase videos where the dude in white suburban actually made it through the Mexican border!

dude got away!!!

haha; that was the terrible David Caruso flick, right? He left NYPD Blue right away b/c he saw himself becoming a huge star after that one....then it bombed, b/c he sucks.

At least 5, you could be right about 6.

 

[thegimp03]

Definitely Ronin, Bullitt, and Blues Brothers are at the top of my list. I still find the chase between the Ferrari and the Hummer through the streets of SF at the beginning of The Rock to be pretty exciting and comical.

 

[KeithTalent]

Three that came to mind immediately were:

Death Proof
French Connection
Ronin

KT

 

[joesmoke]

Cant believe nobody has mentioned Live and Die in LA. Saw it recently and it has an amazing and intense chase scene through the "LA River".

Aside from that Ronin, both bourne movie chases, and bullit are the ones that come to mind for me.
