Default Best movie car chase ever...?



Let's aim for a Top Ten
1. Bullitt (Mustang vs Charger)
2. Mad Max 1 (The opening scene)
3. The Italian Job - original ("we are the self-preservation society")


Don't even think about adding the remake of Gone in 60 seconds - it was SH1TE!

Sadly a lot of more modern movies tend to use CGI, or at the very least WET roads!!!

Look at TV shows pre the 1990s nearly all were driven on dry roads with real stuntmen.

I recall that the car chase in Ronin was filmed in one sequence (live action).

"Drive" has some pretty good sequences and no wet roads in sight!

But i have to agree with the three you listed there.... specially madmax for some reason lol

Lets not forget the original Blues brother's movie, the end chase is epic.

H.B Halicki's original Gone in 60 Seconds springs to mind.
Ronin gets my vote for something special though!
