French Connection.
Bullit is overrated.
None from the original 'The Italian Job'?
To: Ghengis
...For comedic efforts, Blues Brothers and Raising Arizona (car, truck, foot and dog chases all wrapped together on that one) are the best... Comedy - What's Up Doc
Action - Bullitt is the best. The Seven-Ups was good too.

like William Shatner's piece on that old TV episode of The Twilight Zone. Which one? He was in a couple....
So was Dennis Weaver. Heard him pushing his hydrogen car a year or two before his death. He credited his Twilight Zone appearances with breaking him out of the "Chester" typecast.

In a world long ago, Steve and a bunch of riders would
cool off with a beer underneath a tractor trailer out at the Greenhorn enduro in the mojave desert, I drank a coke. He was
my hero.

Which one? He was in a couple.... The airliner one; I think its episode title was something like "Terror at 30,000 Feet" or something like that.
To: decimon
Bullitt, Bourne Identity...and Batman Begins. Maybe Blues Brothers.
(notice that they all start with a B...could it mean something?)

Ronin is tempting. The actors were not the cool, calm and collected types but looked more real.

Vanishing Point is a great flick—and so is the original Gone in 60 Seconds—if I recall its big chase scene was at least partly shot illegally on open public streets!
