My Favorite Chase Scenes in Film #MondayMovieMeme #atthemovies
Or shall I say.....my favorite chase scenes that I remember at the moment. This week, Smurfdok at Smurfin’ the Web is hosting the Monday Movie Meme while it is on tour between his blog and mine as The Bumbles has some alone time with little Samuel. The topic is “Ooo Chase Me!” – What are your favourite chase scenes from the movies? so, here are my picks for this week’s theme.
Bad Boys II
There are a few chase scenes in this Michael Bay film but my favorite one started it all off as Will Smith and Martin Lawrence play Miami detectives who intercept a drug deal gone bad. The chase scene lasts for a long time and causes major car wrecks on the highway, ending with a shootout between the DEA, Miami Police Department, Cuban drug smugglers and street thugs.
Terminator 2: Judgement Day
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Edword Furlong have their work cut out for them while trying to escape from being targets of the T-1000 (played by Robert Patrick), an upgraded version of Schwarzenegger’s character with a relatively invincible structure and fearless attitude that stretches from indoors out onto the road.
The chase scenes from “Terminator 2: Judgement Day” could not be embedded, so the one where John Connor is being chased during the daytime is here and the scene where he, along with his mother and The Terminator (played by Schwarzenegger) are being chased at night is here.

Without a doubt my favorite chase scenes come from the movies Ronin (this movie set the gold standard for car chase scenes) and the Jason Bourne series.
I used to think that the car chase scene in Bullitt was the best, but looking back on it now it seems so tame. But I guess with improved technology, cars got better and so did the stunt driving! :-)
2 very good choices there. Cheers =)
Too many to name...I like your picks in this post:)
So many great movie chases. One that I was thinking of the other day was the one on the freeways in To Live and Die in L.A.. It's the first chase that I recall that went against the traffic. It really blew me away when I first saw it.
