The Top 10 Movie Chase Franchises…
Now, to come up with a Top 10 ‘aint easy. But as a Franchise, there’s only so many. So, …here’s the BEST of the BEST according to this Fireballed opinion. See these one after the other, and in that way, you get to get as totally sick as possible… leading to taking the next day off from work …and watch the next franchise. (See how I just figured that out? I’m just so cool that way.)
What was I saying? …Oh, yea. Bar none, the best Action Genoirs of our time. Is Genoir a word? No. But I don’t care, so here we go…
NUMBER 10 – ITALIAN JOBBERS
Minis on a Mission. Fun to watch, (not so much Walberg). They used 90 MINIs in this film to catch all that action. And screwed up all 90. Yea, nice.
NUMBER 9 – GONE IN 60 SECONDS’EZ
Mustangs leaping. No sense whatsoever, but enough crashes and complete destruction to keep you re-filling you chip bowl. And her name was Eleanor. Nice.
NUMBER 8 – FAST AND REALLY, REALLY MAD
Young people ruining the city,… um, cities, in every way possible. Plus, girls everywhere. Oh, and girls. Did I mention girls? Nice…………. girls.
NUMBER 7 – MATRIXES
Dark, dreary, sexy, fast and rubber. Both on the cars and on Trinity. Plus, enough CG to have a Cardiac Arrest. A CG Cardiac Arrest, of course. Nice.
NUMBER 6 – TRANSPORTERS
Cars, Karate, a nasty girl with machine guns and no clothes. Yup, that’s a movie for us. Oh, and really silly over-the-top chases that make no sense. Nice.
NUMBER 5 – BOURNES
Gritty, fast, mind-blowing chases with hardcore brutal endings. No punches pulled here, just the raw real deal. Ouchy. Oh,…. nice.
NUMBER 4 – JIMMY BONDS
Every kind of chase in just about every kind of car. Fun, exciting and full of Bond. James Bond. Always leaves you shaken, not stirred. Nice.
NUMBER 3 – MAD MAXED
Lots of room in the outback to fully destroy any car, truck, bike or any moving object. Super cool cars, cool badass bad guys and dust. Lots of dust. Ni… cough, Nice.
NUMBER 2 – TERMINATORS
Metal grinding metal. Self aware Harleys, buxom Terminatrixes and yes, a badass Ford Pickup driven by Arnie. ‘Nuf said. Nice.
AND NUMBER 1 – BATMANS
The Tumbler. Nice.
So there….
