Good Car Chase Films

[Cigar Lover 101]

I love a good car chase movie now and then. Here's some all times classics in no particular order.

Bullitt - Classic chase, beautiful actress Jacqueline Bisset, great film score, memorable lines. What more could you want?

Vanishing Point - Good B movie. Cleavon Little is amazing as the blind DJ. Good soundtrack. I hear this film had an influence on Quentin's new movie "Death Proof".

The Seven Up's - Directed by the producer of Bullitt. Well acted and great surprise twist ending.

The Driver - Another B movie feel. The parking lot scene is the best!

Gone In 60 Seconds - Okay, the acting is pretty bad, but the last 45 minute car chase is stunning! The original I'm talking about not the remake.

Dirty Mary & Crazy Larry - Fun is how I feel when I watch it if that makes any sense. Another film that had a big influence on Tarintino.

Magnum Force - Okay, it's not really a car chase film, but the chase near the end of the film has some cool jumps.

That's about all I can think of. Anyone else share my passion of car chase films? What's some you like?

Heat comes to mind, love that movie.

Ronin - Robert De Niro. Awesome car chase through narrow european roads.

Another one I hear is good is the following:

Duel - I caught the last fifteen minutes of the film on cable TV. I should watch it at the begining.

Two Lane Blacktop - Never seen this but I hear it's pretty good.

Ronin

Oh yeah. The backwards car chase was pretty cool.

The Italian Job had a great car chase.

I don't know how the car survived but it was a great chase.

THE LIST:

Bullit
French Connection (Probably the best)
Ronin
The Grindhouse (there is a great one in the Tarrantino segment)
Blues Brothers (two classic chases)

Ronin pretty much is the end all be all of car chase movies.

You can't forget Steve McQueen's LeMans!!! Best racing footage ever.

Smokey and the Bandit

Ronin was great. The Bourne Identity had a pretty good chase scene. Mr & Mrs Smith in the mini van was cool, and Casino Royale when the Dbs set a new worlds record ( don't wanna spoil the scene for those who have not seen it ) and my favorite; OJ in the white bronco on the LA freeway

I will agree with that!

And maybe the funniest car chase scene ever was in "Raising Arizona"...that old man screaming makes me cry every time.
