The WORST Movie chases.....

I've talked before and a lot of people have asked about the best movie chases feturing musclecars and weve talked et al- about "Bullitt" "Vanishing Point", "Gone in 60 Seconds", "White Lightning", "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" etc. But some people have asked about the worst, most unrealistic ones, and I feel compelled to oblige.  Here's the worst in my opinion. # 1. "Wanted". Even a breifly naked Angelina Jolie couldn't save this stinker. Her and James Macavoy are driving a Dodge Viper, and the bad guy can miraculously keep up in a UPS truck. Not a real UPS truck-but you know what I'm talking about. A GM Box van. Puhleeeze. A Viper would leave that in half a block.  # 2. "The Driver" This is actually one of Quentin Tarantino's favorites, and I have to admit I liked it up until the finale. Ryan O' Neal is a Getaway driver who drives criminals away from crimes eluding the cops. There's a lot of good automotive action, but the finale sucks. O' Neal is chasing a 1976 Pontiac Trans-Am in a 1976 Chevy Pickup!! For argument's sake, if the truck was a 454 it would be competitive in a drag race; but there's no way a truck could corner or brake with a Trans-Am!!!  The T/A would lose him in three blocks!!  And the Ironic thing is-earlier in the film O' Neal was driving a '77 or '78 Firebird.  Now if he was chasing the T/A in that, that would have been believable.  # 3. "Marked for Death" This Steven Seagal stinker is almost as bad as "Wanted". Seagal and Keith David are chasing a BMW 633CSI in a Dodge Ramcharger. If you don't know- A Ramcharger is a 4WD Chevy Blazer / Ford Bronco type SUV.  One of the slowest, most Ill-handling vehicles ever built. A BMW 633CSI is one the fastest, best handling sport sedans ever built. The Bimmer would lose the Dodge truck in two blocks. And-earlier in the film, Seagal was driving a sinister looking black '73 Mustang Mach 1!!  Why didn't they have him chasing the Bimmer in that??  That would have been cool, and beleivable. # 4. "Basic Instinct" Most people remember Sharon Stone getting naked a lot and the famous leg-crossing scene in the police station. I remember Michael Douglas ripping Jeanne Tripplehorn's clothes off and bending her over the couch as much hotter than any scene with Sharon. Anyhow-even though Douglas' Detective character drives a '92 "5.0" Mustang throughout the film- in the one chase scene he tries to stay up with Stone-who's driving a Lotus Esprit-on a two-lane road in a Dodge Diplomat 4-door cop car. The Lotus would have smoked him in under a mile. Puhleeze. Again-why not the Mustang?  # 5. "Fast&Furious". There's two stinkers here. One, Paul Walker and Vin Diesel completely smoke a Ferarri 360 in a drag race in an '89 Toyota Supra. Riiiggghhhttt. I know, the Supra was supposed to be all pumped up. Even if the Supra had 500 hp, ( They had about 250 stock ) the Ferarri-that stock did 0-60 in like 4 seconds flat and the 1/4 in like 11.8-according to Car&Driver- would still have given it a helluva race. It wouldn't have been the ass-whippin they showed. And the end-where Walker driving the same Supra stays dead-even in a drag race with Diesel's 6-71 Supercharged, 426 Hemi powered 1970 Charger!!!  I don't think so!!!   Mastermind
