Really Cool Bond Chases

Fifth Gear Top 5

There have been some really good Bond chases across the franchise history from car to boat and foot to plane but here are the best of the best.

Goldeneye- Tank

How about starting with the favourite choice that I have, the tank scene from Goldeneye. Although slightly unbelievable Bond was behind the wheel of a Russian tank for this one. Was this the first time that Bond had actually gotten behind something like a Tank, something that had the potential to kill a lot of people. The only real reason that this one is my favourite is because it was the film that I grew up watching however I will say that Sean Connery is easily my favourite Bond and I never had a liking for Moore.

Casino Royale- Madacascar

The reason that this was done was to show off Craig for the first time, they did this well and it turned into a great film. This is one of the best Bodn scenes simply because it is actually a bit realistic although that crane jump was pretty far fetched. Just after Bond gets his 00 status he makes a bit of a mess by blowing up an embassy, M then regrets giving him the license.

Goldfinger

This is the classic and another great Bond chase scene. This one is great as it features a machine gunner franny, a metal hat throwing guy, smokescreens and of course the ejecter seat! Surely these things alone make it a fantastic chase scene! This was a great scene for a old movie and Bond is close to death in this one.

The World Is Not Enough- Thames

Although I really liked the film, many Bond fans didn’t think ti was very good at all and thought that this scene was the only decent one. I have to say the only film I didnt really like was Die Another Day, that was just stupid and was very badly written. However the Thames boat chase was really great and featured everything a great chase should have in it, machine guns and a diving boat.

I am almost certain that the next Bond chase scene is going to be a good one with the CGI effects coming into play along with the big budgets thanks to the success of the first two Daniel Craig movies.

So although it isn’t likely that we are going to see bond go out and get Luton van lease the next Bond chase could be a cracker. Surely he must have bad credit car leasing.
