these are cinemas most thrilling
high-octane pursuits welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we will be
counting down the top 10 movie car
chases just to keep this list grounded
the entries can involve any motor
vehicle regardless of how many wheels
those vehicles have number 10 the
getaway
drive jump-starting our list is the
opening scene from the film where Ryan
Gosling plays a stunt driver by day and
a getaway driver by night by calmly
gripping the wheel of his silver Impala
he monitors the police while chewing on
a toothpick cunningly dodging capture
not be nagging in mine of course
speed has its place too
gripping chase this one is unique for
not relying on excessive danger or
massive damage but stealth and patience
instead here we automate our contract as
well as a brilliantly time to skate plan
number nine freeway chase the Matrix
Reloaded seeking an exit from the matrix
Morpheus and Trinity are pursued by
killer glitch programs police and agents
in their desperation they do what
they’ve always been told not to do and
venture onto the freeway you always told
me to stay off the freeway yes that’s
true said it was suicide and let us hope
that I was wrong
the result is a ton of slow-motion
broken glass and killer penis as no real
freeway was available for the
three-month shoot the production team
built a 1 and a half mile long stretch
on an old runway doesn’t look real well
that’s just the extra CGI number 8 mini
heist The Italian Job in this flick 3
Austin Mini Coopers were chosen to
nimbly transport millions of dollars of
stolen gold I could a the host ha shot
in Turin resulting scene made stunt
coordinator Remi GaN an industry legend
overall this chase required 18 mini
coopers and involved rushing through
pedestrian areas downstairs over a dam
through a sewer and into a truck not bad
considering that that much gold should
technically way more than the vehicles
themselves number 7 briefcase pursue
Ronan this chase stars Robert De Niro as
a mercenary tasked with recovering a
briefcase racing past Paris landmarks
and into a tunnel his pursuit causes a
brutal pileup before he’s hastily forced
to enter another tunnel in Reverse what
makes this pursuit stand out aside from
the lack of a distracting soundtrack is
that the chase placed actors in the real
cars and relied on practical effects
despite the availability of CGI
number six train chase the French
Connection when a fleeing hitman escapes
on an L train the detective in pursuit
refuses to give up getting behind the
wheel of his beat-up Pontiac he races to
catch his man
production from another era this iconic
high-speed scene was shot without a
permit or extras this meant that all of
the bystanders are real
while it looks like it was meticulously
planned it actually benefited from
countless happy accidents
they really don’t make them like they
used to number five the aqueduct
Terminator 2 Judgment Day this
pulse-pounding and deadly chase the
t1000 uses an 18-wheeler to pursue a
dirt bike riding John Connor committed
to running the boy down the chase ends
up in a 40-foot wide Los Angeles
Aqueduct fortunately a stuntman posing
as Arnold Schwarzenegger shows up and
saves the day preventing John from
sharing the same fate as all those
abandoned shopping carts
last chance Murray number four the Paris
chase the Bourne Identity miss em
easyacc spy thriller a what is now
vintage Austin Mini Cooper is used to
evade the police and CIA by hightailing
it through the traffic heavy streets of
Paris along the way five different
vintage minis had to be used for the
stunts with only one surviving ride we
got a buff coming up this high-speed
spectacle included side streets tight
passageways stairs and sidewalks it was
made all the more immersive with its
gritty handheld style number three
mission from God the Blues Brothers
they’re not gonna catch us we’re on a
mission from God when a recently paroled
convict and his brother take on the
quest of saving an orphanage from
foreclosure they end up in big trouble
we on high-speed pursuit northbound on

high-speed chase around a parking lot
you want out of this parking lot okay

blues movie
disco pants America
ultimately they managed to send every
police car flying into a ditch with a
total of 70 cars destroyed during the
shoot
number two the convoy Mad Max – the road
warrior in this post-apocalyptic chase a
gang of filthy Marauders chased down a
convoy led by Mel Gibson who’s
supposedly escorting a precious fuel
tanker to safety
fighting atop moving cars motorcycles
and trucks this scene is 20 minutes long
and is considered one of the most
outrageous and hectic ever felt it
includes Molotov cocktails grappling
hooks crossbows flipping cars and
assless chaps also it’s awesome
number one the Mustang chase bully
taking the lead in our list is the
grandfather of all modern high speed
chases a pursuit between Steve McQueen
and a pair of deadly assassins it starts
on the streets of San Francisco and ends
up on the highway
the scene lasts ten minutes and is ultra
realistic gritty and featured stunt
