O/T - No SVX's in this movie, but . . .

you gotta see it regardless.

"Ronin" with Robert DeNiro and Jean Reno. Total guy flick, but my wife really likes it too (I think she has a thing for DeNiro - he's got hair, as well as talent [sigh]).

Car chases aside, the relationship and bond that develop between DeNiro and Reno is an excellent portrayal of the relationships and respect that can develop between people engaged together in risky endeavors.

A little shoot-'em-up, a little zoom-zoom, and some bushido thrown in - it's a great flick.

I've seen it several times, for some reason it just popped into my head today (maybe because of the S8 I followed into town) and I just had to share.

That's the kind of guy I am.

John Frankenheimer's comment track on that DVD is, for the most part, totally useless.

But listen to it during the car chases - he says some interesting stuff about how they pulled off some of the stunts.

another good movie (for crazy car driving) is "The Hidden" - not TOO bad '80's sci-fi movie about bad alien who steals Ferrari's and good alien who chases him in a 928 and my favorite chase scene....the Blues Brothers.
