welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
getaway drivers and movies before we
begin we publish new videos every day so
be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’re focusing on
the most efficient and memorable drivers
in cinema who flee the scene of a crime
let’s do it my way
number 10 Randall Memphis Raines dawn in
60 seconds a getaway driver doesn’t
always need help but sometimes it’s
necessary in Dominic’s anus hi split the
legendary Randall Memphis Raines
utilizes his talents to keep a British
gangster away from his family we’ve got
the addresses on all 50 ladies scout
Memphis is a quirky old pro but he’s
smart enough to organize a 50 car heist
that will save his younger bro with so
much experience
Memphis naturally reflects on his past
jobs which sometimes affects his
decision-making but let’s be clear
Memphis Raines knows the tricks of the
trade and he knows what makes people
tick okay let’s run so when it’s time to
go to work it’s just a matter of
executing the plan while minimizing
collateral damage you take care of me
security number 9 Toby Howard hell or
high water where is Sam from you were
soon from the bank and David McKenzie
neo Western thriller the end justifies
the means
furthermore it’s a family affair for
getaway driver Toby Howard ad teams up
with his brother Tanner to avenge the
wrongs done to their late mother see you
boys Cato’s bastard back with their own
money well if a tank takes and I don’t
know what it is on the road it’s not
about sharp turns in big city
maneuvering it’s more about anticipation
and knowing the surrounding country
while Toby is plenty of charisma and
charm he’s not a getaway driver that
seeks attention he’s looking for justice
as a matter of principle and so Toby
must be taken seriously because he’s got
little to lose and everything to gain
hopefully here you believe it I did all
of it
number eight
your chance to live and die in LA I’m
gonna bang masters and I don’t give a
shit how I do it this man is not your
traditional getaway driver in fact
Richard chances and even the
prototypical batting William freaking
film that honor goes to Willem Dafoe’s
Eric Rick masters but chance does have
something going for he’s simply a
reckless individual so when he puts the
pedal to the metal
you better believe that it won’t be a
smooth ride do I have a choice but
despite his unpredictability in personal
trouble chance doesn’t necessarily have
a death wish
and so he’s cool and collected while
navigating the LA Street even if
everything around him is complete
madness going this way number seven
Roger the Italian Job
while he’s certainly not the only driver
in this film Roger would probably fit
the bill for what you’d call the strong
silent type
there’s no denying he’s an essential
part of Charlie Croker scheme when they
set out to steal four million dollars in
gold and he’s present in many of the
caper flick scenes and yet instead of
making his mark with word he does so
with his driving skills as well as his
readiness to do whatever it takes to get
the job done including disguising
himself as a football fan wait one dimly
meanwhile for the 2003 remake handsome
Rob conveys a little more grit it is
also someone that can multitask under
pressure once drove all the way from Los
Angeles we could set the record for
longest freeway changer number six
Carter Doc McCoy the getaway plunge it’s
80
whereas some getaway drivers are hired
specifically for their skills this man
is a true Texas outlaw in Sam Peckinpah
split doc breaks free from jail but he’s
not a lone wolf he’s a married man so
with his wife Carol riding shotgun doc
has quite the incentive to stay on the
tracks so to speak that’s what I want
this getaway driver is representative of
the classic American outlaw a man that
doesn’t play by the rules but still
needs love furthermore doc knows how to
handle a gun making him even more
dangerous to his enemies at the end of
the day doc survives through a versatile
skill set and a major chip on his
shoulder difficult number five CW Moss
Bonnie and Clyde I spent a year I spent
a year my foam Atari here’s a guy that
won’t exactly school you with smart
unless it comes to cars based on the
real-life feral gang member WD Jones GW
Moss has major value because he’s always
ready to prove himself especially when
challenged by Bonnie and Clyde like many
outlaws he’s a flawed young man and
perhaps not the brightest of the bunch
yet his knowledge and naivete make him a
crucial asset he didn’t seek out his
position as the opportunity presented
itself and though cwz maturity proves to
be quite problematic the kid gets the
job done when given the opportunity yes
I guess I do number four the driver from
the driver get in this nameless
character is a legitimate master of his
craft not only does the driver
understand how to navigate a metropolis
like Los Angeles he also knows his
enemies most notably a hardened
detective known as well the detective I
really like to see you he’s a man that
enjoys the danger and psychology of it
all he keeps his composure in the most
crucial of moments whereas some cons can
just flat-out burned the driver paints
the town with strategic moves and
unfathomable efficiency better get new
plates if you plan on taking it out
again in fact he’s so brilliant on the
road that law enforcement must respect
it even if they despise what the cowboy
stands for
[Applause]
number three Dominic Toretto
The Fast and the Furious I live my life
a quarter mile at a time
as a former street racer this tough guy
most definitely has street smarts but as
a getaway driver there are few others
that can operate like Dominic Toretto
he’s not only an ambitious criminal he
also understands the human element and
how to manipulate situations to his
advantage with that being said DOM is at
his best when his loved ones are at risk
a concept that fuels the entire
franchise as a whole
great for Harlow to connect for the 2001
original though
Dominic jumps off the screen with his
immense confidence and bravado and he’s
always one step ahead both on and off
the road on Green number two Frank
Martin the transporter little water
never change the diesel personally and
professionally this man doesn’t
necessarily play by the rules yet Frank
Martin does live fire code and he’s
completely fearless he’s a stylish
fellow and image is most definitely a
part of his getaway driver persona but
Frank isn’t begging anyone for work nor
does he have time for people that
disrespect his simple request and so
it’s this type of life structure that
allows him to stay focused under
difficult circumstances transportation
is a precise fit it’s not that Frank
Martin is smarter or more talented than
other getaway drivers its bet he’ll take
extreme measures to accomplish his
mission
this for example tourists I’m not a
tourist before we unveil our topic here
are a few honorable mentions
[Applause]
right
you’re pretty good thief number one
driver drive then while you’re running
it down okay we have gun drive at first
glance this guy looks like just a
typical Hollywood stunt man but he’s not
a driver that gets worked because of his
charming personality nope this driver
succeed because work is his primary
focus and he does not appreciate those
who disrupt his planned shut your mouth
I’ll kick your teeth down your throat
with regardless of the drivers
personality issues he’s mostly calm
mostly and when the pressure is on he
blocks out the surrounding noise he’s a
man that communicates through his
actions and some of them are indeed
disturbing but for movie getaway drivers
there’s nobody more focused and
committed than the driver and despite
his behavior he’s a sympathetic figure
perhaps because he’s more comfortable at
work than with actual human beings and
you want to see something
