Best car chase in a movie - NOW WITH POLL

[jEnus]

If anyone has seen it, the original Gone in 60 seconds made back in the 1970's. I love that version, I think it puts the one w/ nicolas cage to shame. The GF would disagree though.

 

[poopaskoopa]

The last one to make an impression on me was the sequence from the Bourne Identity.

 

[pyonir]

Those mentioned are great. I'm gonna throw out another one i like, Jade. David Caruso is in it, so the movie sucked, but the car chase was awesome.

Just watched bullet a couple days ago. gotta love seeing that same green beetle 3 or 4 times. and a few other cars. For sure one of my favs.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Nah, that was the most boring car chase. A white Ford Bronco driving down the freeway at freeway speeds...whoo hoo...

I remember that! Made me miss an episode of Full House . . . Know that I think about it, I never fully recovered from missing that episode.

Yep, one of my all time favorites, I wondered if anyone else would mention this one.

Other great ones as mentioned:

Blues Brothers
Bullitt
French Connection

Bourne Identity, not because it was cool but the sound was some of the best surround material ever produced.

Yep, that's my nomination for favorite car chase scene.

:beer:

 

[Boogak]

Ronin... I was so inspired I bought a European sport sedan.

 

[Apex]

Ronin, definitely.

The chase scene was the best scene in the Matrix Reloaded.

 

[preslove]

Is the Italian Job mentioned the old or the new one? I haven't seen the old one, but the new one is by far THE WORST CHASE SEEN EVAR!!!!!!!!!! It is the fakest looking POS I've ever seen.

Blues Brothers > Ronin >*

 

[tboo]

My favorite was the tank chase scene in Goldeneye.

Oh yeah, :beer:
The first one only though. After that Bullit gets my vote.

T3's was horrible. In fact, the whole movie sucked.

The Bourne Identity had a pretty good one, as did The Transporter

This is what I love about the internet. Someone, somewhere, is thinking exactly the same thing you are

Bourne Identity was nice because he had some beat to hell mini instead of a mustang or bmw or some other fast car like in most other chase scenes.

 

[jdiddy]

Number 1 is definately Ronin followed by but not to closely, Matrix Reloaded.

It's got to be Blues Brothers. They actually drove 120mph down the streets of downtown Chicago.

^Agreed^... followed by Bullit a close second!
