I had seen parts of it as a small child but remembered nothing. So many car chases, crashes, shootouts...and music legends. Plus a 120-mph run under the el. Fantastic movie.

It's my all time favorite. There are so many little things in it that you catch with repeated watching as well.

Very possibly the greatest car chase ever filmed. Aykroyd and Belushi at their finest.

"It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?

My daughter and I get together only rarely. She lives in Michigan.

When we do, we always watch that together. Great movie.

TTYYMMNN grabbed my quote first.

Great cameos and music.

Definitely one of my favorite movies ever. Plus, it was set in Chicago, and back when I first saw it, Chicago was by far the most popular piece of american geography here in Brazil (because of Michael Jordan and the Bulls. We had Bulls themed shirts, jackets and caps long before sports clothing became a fad by itself)
