Banlieue13 (?) has an excellent chase scene.

That would be "it" or "It".
And, if memory serves me... involved kids running from a clown...wow. Great chase scene there.

Nah tom and jerry for the winner?

The best car chase scenes are in the film called "RONIN". They`re class, real normal road cars not like feckin ferrari`s/lambourgini crap.
Anyway, theres a couple of scenes with chases, involving a Bmw, a class Peugeot 406 and an Audi A6. 1 chase is through little narrow streets and the whole scene is just class. I bought the Dvd just for the chases but the actual film is class itself, its about the IRA sort of.

Anyone know it?

See post a hocht. Great chases alright and if memory serves me correctly, one of them was teh wimmen driver?

Road Runner ftw

FatherTed

The Italian Job (original)
Gone in 60 Seconds
Smokey and the Bandit
Ronin

Manic Moran

I have to say, I find myself in agreement with Father Ted, there...

Italian Job (Original)
Ronin
Smokey and the Bandit (One big long 1:30minute car chase!)
The Blues Brothers. "You want out of this parking lot? OK..."
Bourne Identity.

I'm not actually so amazingly keen on Bullit. Though it is a nice car...

I was in a car chase once.. I was chasing an Opel Kadett... in my tank. I think he was very surprised at how fast I could go...

NTM

DMC

The Blue Brothers from the point where Elwood says "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses" until the Daley Plaza.

Held the record of the most cars crashed in a movie until the appalling sequel.

FTW.

joseph brand

Blues Brothers and French Connection (Popeye Doyle). Who wants an angry 'Hackman' after ye in full sprint. Leg it!!

monkeyfudge

Yep it would have to be the Blues Brothers for me too.

Jackie Chan's Armour of God had some great scenes in it too....

pvt. joker

Don't forget The French Connection, the original Gone in 60 Seconds from the 70's, and i agree with Ronin and The Bourne Identity

Terry

what's that bond film where he's in paris and his car gets cut in half and he drives the front half down some steps and stuff?
or the one where he drive onto train tracks and chases a train?

cyrusdvirus

Blues Brothers.

No doubt about it. All the way to the SWAT Team at the end..

HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT

Goolay

French Connection FTW

onemanband

Blues Brothers has to be No 1 for me. RONIN was a close second. The AUDI was an S8 quattro. I actually bought a second hand one after seeing the movie. Best car ever IMO!!!

whiskeyman

Surprised Duel hasnt been mentioned.
Ok, not really a chase... but a whole film where an evil trucker (never actually see his face) is hunting down and scaring the bejaysus out of businessmans little car.
T'was Spielbergs first big film too.

I think it was one of the Timothy Dalton ones. I think Roger Moore was in one that was partly in Paris (the one that ends with the brilliant climax on the Golden Gate bridge) but I dont think this is the same one. Mind you, that Moore one has pretty good chase involving a fire truck.

Not exactly a chase per say, but Speed always has the oul palms sweatin, even though Ive already seen it a half dozen times. Great action film.

Terry

the bond one with the speed boats was fairly good too. (nobody said it had to be cars).

It was an Audi S8 not an A6 and racing a Peugeot 406 against a BMW M5 is a bit unrealistic tbh but a great car chase all the same. Another great car chase was in the Bourne Supremacy, better than the Bourne Identity.

radiospan

Duel for me too.

Black Swan

For a sci fi fantasy chase scene, I would have to agree with R0ot. But you might also want to check out "Transporter" (the first one), which, of course is fiction too, but appears real (except for the jump onto the back of the car carrier, which was cool but a laugh).:D

I completly forgot about The Blues brothers!!!

monkeyfudge

I thought the Matrix chase scene was terrible... it was very obvious that the truck was driving really slow.

Hobbes

Best chase scene ever is the South Park episode where Cartman is driving to the Family Guy studios to get them shut down.

Terry

nah. the high speed chase with him and kenny in the battery operated car is better. (cartman's hate crime is the name of the episode i think).

Yeah that's what I was going to mention. There was something very menacing about that truck. Love the fact you never see the drivers face.
That scene in the diner is classic!

I second that. Great chase scene.
Although I think the Peugeot was a 605 instead of the 406?

that's what you noticed? nothing bar the sword in the side of the truck annoys me in that chase sequence tbh...

(sword refers to morpheus sticking a sword in the side of the truck near the top, cut to the next scene and the sword is much lower so morpheus can stand on it, later on the sword is back at the top)

No, it was a 406 alright, I know my cars.;) I've watched it loads of times. There was a 605 in The Transporter, maybe thats the one you were thinking of.

Hmm. I was sure there was a 605 in Ronin.

Damnit. I'm going to have to watch it again now. :-)

I'm taking bets if your interested.:D You can try Google'ing it if you like.:)
Check out www.varaces.com for more car chase videos.

Just checked. I'm confusing the 605's that are part of the convoy. (first car chase, rocket launcher etc) and the actual proper car chase later on in the film where they are indeed driving a 406.

So both right (kinda) :-)

S.

Dirk Gently

Bullitt and Ronin.
Duel was a great film but not sure if I would throw it in the "best car chase" category. It was a different kind of film where the whole thing was about a road chase as opposed to an action scene in the other car chase films mentioned.

wingnut

Not a car chase but Apocalyto has a pretty cool on foot chase scene.

Sad Professor

The whole last act of T2, especially the bit where Arnold rides the overturned truck like a surf board Greatest chase ever imo.

Pigman II

Probably The Asteroid sequence in Empire Strikes Back.

2nd place would go to Bullitt

3rd would go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxtzR-SWQMk

Schlemm

Even though I hate Greyhound racing, there's an awful funny car chase in that movie 'Man About Dog'.

Endurance Man

Ronin..

johnnyrotten

The race in Kilinaskully

CathyMoran

Ronin - for the locations as much as the car chases - one of my favorite movies.

junkyard

I loved the locations in Ronin too. The French do the best car chases as far as I'm concerned.......its a pity about their cars though.:rolleyes:

A few years ago, when a neighbouring lad (17 approx) got caught with his pants down in his girlfriend's living room by her father arriving home early from a weekend away. Cue normally ultra-respectable father chasing him for half a mile waving a 3 ft. long yellow and purple golfing umbrella, and yelling that he was going "to shove it so far up his arse he'd need a dentist".
