Fun Stuff

Trivia:
This film is edited entirely by cuts except in two instances. The first occurs when the jazz club scene dissolves to a shot of Steve McQueen lying in bed. The second occurs after the Dodge crashes into the gas station and burns, when the shot of the two dead villains dissolves to a scene at the police station. more
Goofs:
Continuity: During the chase scene, while driving through the streets, what appears to be the same green VW Beetle is passed by the Dodge Charger four times and the Ford Mustang twice. Both vehicles pass what seems to be the same white Pontiac Firebird six times. more
Quotes:
Pete Ross: This is Pete. We lost him.
telephone voice: He's your brother, Ross. If you can't find him, we have people who can. And YOU'RE paying for the contract.

It was unbelievable in the theater ..., 8 January 2003
8/10
Author: Brent (beam_er) from California

I'll never forget the first time I saw this great car chase sequence in the theater. You felt the seat go away from you as you rode with Steve McQueen in that awesome sounding Mustang. The Plymouth don't sound too bad either. Very memorable.

When that bad guy puts on his seat belt, You just know Sh** is about to hit the fan. I just love the way the music cuts a way and all you hear for the next few minutes are engines roaring, tires squealing, and metal being customized by close calls that missed. I just saw this again yesterday. The film in DVD with the wide screen ... well worth the rental, IMHO.

Ok granted, the blood is a little lame, and the editing could have been a bit tighter, but that chase scene ... gave me goose bumps all over again.
