Ok, best and worst movie chases?
Alright, here we go! Let's see everybody's opinions here. What do you consider Hollywood's best chase scenes? List your top picks, up to three. Also, let's throw in the worst ones. The total flops.
My BEST picks:
(1) the 1974 original "Gone in 60 Seconds" No CG animation, no multiple stunt cars. A '73 Mach1, and a 45 minute spree of sheer, testoterone pumping destruction. The director/star/driver beats the dogshit out of that car, and 90+ other cars. Horrible acting, godawful dialog... but if you havn't seen this flic... SEE IT!!!
(2) "Bullit" Yeah, they pass the same VW Bug 4 times, and the Charger loses 8 hubcaps, but still an awesome chase.
(3) "Ronin" A really good movie, and a kickass chase? Very rare.
My WORST picks:
(1) "Transporter 2" Oh God. The first movie was actually pretty good, but the sequel was a travesty. Everything about this movie bit ass. And the chases were CG'd to death, over the top unrealistic. Yes, I know, it's a movie. But you have at least a touch of believability.
There's a bomb on the bottom of the car... what do you do?
He jumps a curb... barrel rolling as the car flies through the air... passes, upside down, under a lightpole... clipping JUST the bomb on the light, removing it from the car... lands on his wheels... and continues on his way. Um... WHAT??? Come on.
(2) "Tokyo Drift" Where do I begin?
