37 Of Film's Best Foot Chases | Carlito's Way
Carlito's Way

Released: 1993
Director: Brian De Palma
Starring: Al Pacino

If you’ve seen The Untouchables lately you’ll know that things get pretty hairy when Brian De Palma gets anywhere near public transport. Not content with picking up a newspaper and some Chewits like everyone else, Al Pacino’s ex-hood Carlito Brigante finds himself chased through Grand Central by a gaggle of vengeful (and slightly gormless) Mafia types. With salvation in sight, it’s suddenly quick-and-the-dead territory for Carlito – and the quick just boarded the nearest train.

The one in Insomnia between Pacino and Robin Williams is a underrated one. More

22 Where the hell is Seven?
"Plus, got to leave one out otherwise there'd be nothing to talk about, right?" You don't leave out Seven, that's nearly as bad as if you'd left out Point Break. Shocking!!!! More

23 Death Sentence?
Where's the chase through the car park from this? Whatever you think about the film (for the record, I think it's pretty good), it's a fantastic sequence. More

25 Bottle Rocket
Surely the scene from Bottle Rocket where Dignan is chased by the cops. With Rollings Stones '2000 Man' it's pretty gripping and emotional. More

26 Quantum of Solace
So people don't like this one as much because the name is too confusing, or something. But it might be my favorite Bond, and his chase of Mitchell is great. Chase through the sewers all the way through the streets and onto a bell tower? amazing. More

27 Heat
Heat is, of course, a fantastic foot chase but I decided not to put it in because it had too much shooting (see also Lethal Weapon and Gibson vs. Busey) and not enough running and suchlike. Definitely was in our longlist, but was cut out. Sorry about that! As for Se7en, well, Se7en should be in there but honestly I couldn't find my goddamn DVD of it anywhere. Plus, got to leave one out otherwise there'd be nothing to talk about, right? Right? *cough* More

29 WHERE IS HEAT???
Long time reader, but never felt the need to comment before. Really like the list, but this is a massive miss. Heat is an iconic chase, and its amazing! Big miss! More
