How about "Against All Odds" the Ferrari and Porsche race down the hills and through suburb streets, how could you forget that movie? |

I preferred Charlie's Angels watching Cameron Diaz drive 200 mph through the streets. Now that was some fine acting. |

I like the part in "Driven" when Sly is driving 200 mph through the streets! Although the acting was superb....NOT!! What a total piece of crap movie. |

I find it incredible how a movie can generate $100M + in sales, yet not one person I have spoken to liked it. Must be the worst movie to gross $1MM

I used to think that Bullitt would never be knocked off of its "Best Chase Scene Ever" throne until: RONIN. Not one, but two of the best chase sequences put on film. |

To Live and Die in LA is a great movie. The chase scene is as good as any, but Bullit will always have the trophy. Anybody remember The Seven Ups? Seems to me there was a great chase scene in that. |

The best car movie was made in 70's, starring Barry Newman, driving a Charger Hemi from Utah to San Fran, in 14 hrs....forgot the name of the movie |

I think Driven was the worst race movie ever! I love Grand Prix. One of my favorite car scenes in a movie was the chase scene in the movie "To Live And Die In LA". It's not with any sports cars but the filming will blow you away. Oh, and there's a black 308 in the movie for good measure. Check it out. |

The Fast And The Furious was ment for the Tuner market. Tons of coporate sponsorship gearing towards kids who believe that with $15k plus car, you can have a land rocket. For the most part the movie does its job. Move over ladies and gentlmen, the kids are coming through.
My concern is with street racing. I hope my daughter and I are never in the path of an out of control street race. These things should be left to the track. |

The special effects must really have been bad if you thought they were F1 cars. Driven is about CART! |

I have seen a few minutes of Driven too. I stopped really fast when I realized the F1 scenes were really bad 3D work comparable or worst than modern videgames.
Driven is definitely a car movie to avoid.

What ticked me off about FnF was the stereotype of the Ferrari driver when in actuality it's the ricers that have the attitude.
And I don't even own a Ferrari! |

Oh, and I watched a half hour of "Driven" the other night, what a terrible race movie. For my money, "Le Mans" takes the cake. |

A sequel, unbelievable. Must be all the kids who have those kinds of cars, I suppose. |

I agree that the movie is not even worth the rental fee, total crap. However, the Supra in the movie sounds exactly like a Supra.
Complete waste of time though... what is sad is that they are already working on the sequel.

I just watched five minutes of the movie FnF and changed channels. What an absolutely stupid f@$%in' movie. Why is that everytime they show a car in the movies irregardless of displacement they pipe in the sound of a V8? |
