Re: Best movie car chase ever?
Gone in 60 seconds(1974)was THE car chase movie.
Everything done in the movie is real. No handbrakes, no oil, no stunt cars, no stunt drivers, no bullshit car setups except for a roll cage in the mustang. The 1 car was used throughout the entire film. 45 minute chase scene, 94 cars wrecked. One hell of a chase- The acting is a little cheesy, granted. But that's because there were no actors- the cops were cops, the firemen were firemen, the mayor was the mayor, yadda yadda yadda. Pick up a copy- they re-released it when the one with Nick Cage came out. You won't be sorry

I gotta go with Vanishing Point. The whole movie is ONE chase scene!!! With excellent visuals, camera angles, the car wasn't mod'd all up like todays movie cars. It was an off-the-lot 440 Challenger that took all the abuse it was given, and asked for more.

Re: Best movie car chase ever?
Bullit was good, Vanishing point was great as well (remember when he changed the tire to the spare, do you really think that came out of the trunk?) The italian job, original, was awesome. And though not necessariky a car chase, Gran Prx the movie had some awesome real life driving as well a Leman.

I'm so glad that other people mentioned Ronin. It is my favorite action movie of all time and I think those car chases are the best too. I've heard repeatedly that Bullitt is the best, but i haven't checked it out yet.

I no that its a dodgy film, and its not a chase scene, but ive always liked the race scene at the end of the fast and the furious, between the supra and the 1970 dodge charger

Re: Best movie car chase ever?
Wow this is an old thread - but since it's back I gotta add The French Connection and The Seven Ups to the list. The French Connection won all kinds of Academy Awards including Best Editing (very important for a good car chase scene). The Seven Ups was directed by Philip D'Antoni, who also produced Bullitt and The French Connection.
They didn't win any awards for sound effects, because you can see most of the cars involved in the chases are automatics, but you hear sound effects of a manual transmission changing gears. |
