Took my 4-year-old son to Cars yesterday. If you're a car enthusiast and you liked Pixar's pervious movies, you'll definitely enjoy it. Two thumbs up.

Both Cars and Ronin should be on any "best cars movies" list.

I think Ronin has the award for "longest chase scene in a movie that isn't about cars".

Good chase scene tho.

I agree except for the order they are in...
Bullitt is number one (for me)
followed by Vanishing Point and Madd Maxx...

No one mentioned:
The Italian Job (the Mini Coopers were cool)
The Blues Brothers
The French Connection

loved Ronin. There also was a pretty decent car chase in the PeaceMaker and the Borne Identity...

I saw that one. A lower quality movie ripoff of a low quality movie (Cannonball Run). I wanted my $2 (Better Off Dead reference) back from the movie rental.

Gumball Rally was great. A cross country race between a Ferrari Daytona and an AC Cobra!! My favortie scene is where the Italian driver snaps off the rear view mirror and proclaims "The first rule of Italian driving: What is behind you is not important!"

Transporter has some pretty intense chase scenes through Paris.

I remember seeing Grand Prix when I was 9 years old on a full size Cinemascope screen. The in car footage is amazing.

Tow-lane blacktop-1971

Damn! I haven't seen that movie since it came out in 71! I saw it at a Drive-In, the way all good old car movies should be watched and had a girl under my right arm :kiss: while eating popcorn, palm palms and drinking an ice cold coke. Thanks DOMINION for the flash back. :)

I'm renting it this weekend if I can find it.
