I was wondering what everyones favourite chase is in a film, be it car, boat, spaceship, on foot?

A couple of mine are....

1. Neo being chased by Agent Smith on foot in the Matrix
2. Car chase in Ronin
3. Car chase in Bourne Identity

River Phoenix as Indiana Jones (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzqJkdRK2To)

North by Northwest Cary Grant's plane scene (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g458w2X9uHc)

Mills chases John Doe - Brad Pitt actually injured himself doing this scene for real (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXuK0b_yM5M)

The stunning foot chase that opens the 2007 'Casino Royale', probably the best Bond [chase] sequence ever.
The car chase in 'Bellman + True', a little known but quite exceptional film. The film that made me understand what the term 'edge of seat suspense' really meant.

got to be the one in the blues brothers:)

The parallel good guy/bad guy downhill high speed run through the hillside drug factories in Bad Boys II, and the boat-dodging, car-flipping road sequence in the same film.

The BadBoys II chase through the factories is simply a copy of a more impressive Jackie Chan film sequence from 1985. A common tactic in hollywood.

The Crane chase/street demolition in Terminator 3 is similarly very impressive in it's sheer destruction. Especially as it also appears to be done for 'real', i.e. no CGI.

Don't care, it was still fantastic :D . It also had the added bonus that I didn't have to sit through several interminable hours of martial arts nonsense to get to it.

The chase in Wanted, the current James McAvoy film is pretty good.

I can never remember car ones.

Mad Max 1 or Mad Max 2 - any of the chases.

It's not so fantastic if you saw something better many years before.

You're still annoyed from the 'what films don't you want to see?' thread, aren't you? :hihi:

That's a very foolish assumption. The facts about bad Boys II and my opinions about the film are nothing to do with that thread.

Forgot about Terminator 2 that is an ace one.

*gets coat*

Surely the foot chase in Point Break should get a mention?

French Connection for me!

The car chases in Ronin get my vote.
