love that move

and FWIW, the movie is flawed (and too long), but the highway battle in Matrix 2 fucking rules

 

[MajestikMøøse]

It's one of the greatest movies ever, am I right?

you are correct.

I need to watch that movie again sometime. It is damn excellent.

my dad just got that movie. (professional)
I was really expecting a sequel with portman being a badass.

sorry to be an ass, but it's "Bullit", not "Bullet"

Anyhoo, Ronin's chase is better, but the Matrix 2 highway scene tops 'em all for me. It's got cool car chase and cool kung fu battle at the same time!!!

yeah, I'm a jackass for saying it was "Bullet." oops

I agree about the Matrix scene (obviously, since I'm the one who posted it! ha!)

lurch, you're SO WRONG here

one of the best car chases I have ever seen besides the obvious ones mentioned above is in Striking Distance with Bruce Willis ... where he is some water cop ...

"WHO'S THE BEST COP, HUH?!! WHO'S THE BEST...?!" Striking Distance...damn.

"The Professional" was really good. Kinda dismal but in a good way. Oldman totally fucking owned on that one, I agree.

But "Ronin" is definitely a better movie. Awesome car chase scene and one of DeNiro's last great movies before he started churning out true Hollwood garbage.

Jonathan Pryce was really good as well in it.
