The French Connection, hands down.

Ronin... http://www.youtube.com/watch...
- Michael Hocter
Bourne again has some good ones.
- Kol Tregaskes
Ronin for sure, follwoed closely by the fight/chase scene in Matrix Revolution.
- Admiral Anika
Surprisingly, for someone who likes car chases, I don't recall them too well. The most recent ones that come to mind are the racing scenes in Fast & Furious and the freeway attack/kidnapping in The Kingdom
- LANjackal
I like the Matrix Reloaded one.
- mridul
I'm being serious here, but BAD BOYS 2 has the single best car chase scene, takes place on the bridge.
- Roger @ CineVegas
BULLITT with Steve McQueen
- Billy Warhol
+1 ronin

Catch that Beast - insanely long "We need this movie to be half an hour longer, just ad car chases" syndrome

Blues Brothers

The ones in the Transporter movies.
- Rahul Das
The French Connection
- Nick
Gosh, can't remember Ronin very well, must watch it again.
- Kol Tregaskes
what mridul said: matrix reloaded, oh yes!
- esther ♥ ♫
The latest Matrix?
- Daniele Di Gregorio
I love the fact that the credits of The Blues Brothers lists 273 stunt drivers
- Mistletoe Glen
I'd have to say "Bullet" & "Ronin" are tide in my mind for best chase scene.
- Bluesun 2600
Mustang vs.Charger, with Steve McQueen as Bullitt, is tops in my book!
- CJ Guest
Just watched Ronin on Youtube, Umm!! kinda lacks action when compared to Matrix Reloaded but never seen that kinda driving before!! Hard to choose between Ronin and Matrix Reloaded though, it's girl on bike v/s girl on the wheel. I say Trinity (in that shiny leather outfit) beats the blonde.
- mridul
for the record: Ronin is REAL bad ass skilled driving, Matrix Reloaded is mostly CG crap! record book closed :)
- Marco
Matrix 2, followed by Bourne 2.
- Roberto Bonini
Ronin is #1, but the French Connection is a close 2
- Davis Freeberg
Ronin by a mile
- Steve
matrix

Ronin followed by the original Italian Job (http://www.youtube.com/watch...) Something about mini coopers jumping from rooftop to rooftop that is just awesome :)
- Robert DeBord
Sorry, but you're all wrong :). This is the best car chase ever shot http://www.youtube.com/watch.... 9 minutes, one single take, no speeding up, no special effects, no blocked street, excessively dangerous and perfectly illegal. It's also an amazing tour of Paris. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... for more.

every time this question comes up, i am the only person who mentions the jetcar/bike chase at the end of "THX-1138." :-)
- Karim
another vote for Ronin... either one of the 2 car chase scenes in that one edge out French Connection.
- Jim: Dead Like FF
If you didn't click my link, Jeremy Clarkson said C'était un Rendez-vous "makes Bullitt look like a cartoon". Now, go watch it and let me know your new opinion :) http://www.youtube.com/watch...
- Jérôme Flipo
clicked it. that is cool.
- Marco
Cool vid. Seen it before and still contend French Connection best, if only because of its back-story.
- James (!?)
one expects the driver to get out of the car at the end of "C'était un Rendez-vous" and pull some dead pigeons out of the radiator grille. :-D
- Karim
Taxi (French version)
- Keith Hollingsworth

yeah Matrix Reloaded, Ronin, and Bourne series all have some excellent chases. I haven't seen Bullit or French Connection YET. Hear good things.
- Nathan Chase
Ronin and French Connection.
- TVTechGrl
Bullitt with Steve McQueen
- Larry Roth
Bourne trilogy for me, Ronin was good also, maybe even the Italian Job.
- Travis Koger

The Blues Brothers.

Bullet

Ronin.

Gone in 60 Seconds. Eleanor. (surprised it took this long to get a mention)
- chrisofspades
BULLITT.
- Steven Perez
French Connection & Ronin tie for me.
- Pete Delucchi
Bourne Identity drive in the classic mini and the opening chase scene from The Transporter are very good.
- Alex Scoble
Bullitt, Ronin, French Connection.
- AJ Kohn
Gone in 60 Seconds and Matrix Reloaded..
- Varun "Maverick" Pitale
Bourne Supremacy>Orognal Italian Job> Matrix Reloaded
- Vemana Madasu
Ronin is the best because it is real! Matrix is nice too but it is special effects
- Amir
Another vote for Blues Brothers here!
- Mellissa Claus
Death Proof.

The Matrix - Reloaded and yes, Tarantino's Death Proof || I also love French Connection!
- Frank Da Silva
Terminator / L.A. River
- Marg Uerite
While 'C'etait un Rendez vous' isn't strictly a movie chase scene, it's a great drive. My vote is for Ronin though. It's pretty much what you think of when you think of modern car chases.
- Will Higgins™
Ronin, because it was real cars.
- Andrew Leyden
The Blues Brothers
- thinkQuick
Ronin and the Bourne movies
- Norbert Evenich
Dandy Dan and his gang chasing Bugsy and Fat Sam in Bugsy Malone.
- Mark H
Ronin without doubt.
- Faraz Mullick
Transporter
- Bora Mesut PALAS
Ronin by a landslide
- Bwana ☠
I hate to say this because the movie itself is absolutely terrible but.. The scene in Bad Boys where the cars are flipping over the Ferrari.. OMGWTFBBQ.. I think CGI is the way to go with car chases..
- Can Koklu
French Connection, Ronin, Bourne movie had a decent one.
- David J Lowe
The Bourne Identity had the best one IMHO, though the one in Bourne Supremacy came close to beating it. Ronin was fantastic too. Michael Bay puts together some entertaining ones, even if they are over the top - the chases in The Rock, Bad Boys, and Bad Boys 2 are definitely fun to watch.
- Eric P
The Dark Knight "prisoner transport" chase was pretty awesome.
- Steve Lynch
from twhirl
The chase scene from Bullit is great. The chase scene with the crane smashing through buildings from Terminator 3 is a fave as well.
- Jeremy Brooks
Great thread, gonna have to go back and watch a few movies. By the way, the horse chase in first Lord of the Rings was quite good :)
- jcunwired
Blues Brothers hands down. Winnebago in a lake, police car lands INSIDE a semi, 20+ police car pile-up, army helicopters, nazis, what else do you need?!
- Peter Ghosh
Blues Brothers & French Connection are tied in my mind for best, but I love the chase scene in "Day Watch" as well.
- Jennifer Dittrich
So which Ronin chase is better, the Audi / Citroen / Mercedes chase or the BMW / Peugeot one later in the movie?
- Andrew Leyden
RONIN.
- Zafer Yılmaz
Ronin
- Ahsan Ali aka. Slick
Ronin, for sure...
- DAL
Ronin, The French Connection then Bullitt
- David Monroe
