i prefer the original 60 seconde way better. the best part is the end where he switches the cars, that is the most pro move in the whole movie.

My faveroites are scarface, SLC punk, american history X, vanishing point, return of the wildcats (snowboarding), and one that never gets old: out cold.

Vanishing point, there are two versions of it, I like the one with the blonde on the bike. I have seen one of the challengers here in Tennessee at the muscle car museum, dirt and all still on it, the shadetree mechanic's old rod is there too

carguy, it is funny how the two gone in 60 seconds are almost the exact opposite, one has all the action in the beginning and the original has it all at the end, what is it, about a half hour of car chasing. I liked the Mad Max movies as well.

any of the car/motorcycles/semi truck chases are great, I turn the tv up and it is like you are next to the vehicles.

I would say that Triple XXX has it down for the most action and the most outragous stunts. I will by that movie when it is released. I think it was why the new Bond movie seemed tame. Has anyone seen The Knock Around Guy's movie?

You get what you pay for with those cameras, I had one that was great for long distance shots, but up close it was lousey, it would not even give a shot of a licence plate that you could read.
