I always found these old school 80/90s car chases more exciting and adrenaline pumping than Fast and Furious and Need for Speed. Real cars that could take abuse, not just fancy sports cars

Carey Loftin (stunt driver for Steve McQueen in Bullitt) was the stunt coordinator on this movie. He was like a father and was driving mentor to Cliff Cudney, my late husband, who was the limo stunt driver in this chase scene. Greg Elam was Gregory Hines' stunt driver in this sequence, as well as all the other stunt doubling for Hines in this movie. Those were fun times. It was also a blast to be in Chicago at Christmastime when the Bears were in the Super Bowl

R.I.P too Gregory Hines i like this movie

This is one of my favorite movie chase scenes of all time. I love when they drive on the EL tracks.

80s car chase scenes just hit harder! No crazy music, just big block engines and a drum track!

80s cheese. Love it. Classic vintage stuff man

Superb scene!! R.I.P Gregory Hines!

Danny: "IT WORKS, IT'S REALLY BULLETPROOF! Penguin: "Thank You Lord!" Ray: "THANK YOU ACE!"

"Hey Padre, you and your wife owe me $28.50."

Ohare to downtown in less than 5:58 minutes. GOTTA be a record.

The sped up track shots were dope!

Aww damn!!!!!!! The classic Chicago Car chase!!!!!!!

LOL "Thankyou Ace" next minute "You asshole Ace" LOLLOLOLOLOL, Legendary

Look at the old school taxi Caprice go. I miss when cars were like that. RIP that limo, though.

"HEY Father. U & your wife owe me 28.50"!!!

Truely the craziest chase i've ever seen.

My most favorite scene of the entire Running Scared Film! Right on the Subway Tracks, imagine if this had been on the 2/5 joint line from 241st St all the way down to 34th St/Penn Station!

Time to reboot it while Billy Crystal is still living R.I.P George Hines. Great film deserves a rewrite and reboot.

"Try not to scrape the 3rd rail. There's around 600VOLTS! in there"!

probably one of the best car chases, not only of the 80s, but of all time. shame this film bombed at the box office and we never go to see the planned sequel.

4:04 “It’s not the voltage that gets you. It’s the amps.” Word!

I love the D Body Cadillac Deville and the b-body Chevrolet Impala

Spooky thing is that people wouldnt blink twice at a taxicab warping thru traffic in such a fashion..

Excellent film and very good actors, just love this film ❤❤

Classic car chase, excellent movie

Thank you God...Thank you Ace! 😂😂

"Chicken Shit!" CAT POO!

Great film. This car chase scene was so intense.

This was and still is my favorite car chase in cinema history..

See, this is what happens if you don't give your limo or cab driver a tip...

- "Grrrrr...!" - You're scaring the passengers!

Terrific, underrated movie

When cars could go offroad.

Inredible car chase, Freebie and the Bean, had a crazy car chase too.

This movie is awesome

I just noticed something if you look very closely at ray driving he is really not turning the steering wheel

Awesome Chase Scene This Is!! Awesome Movie!! 😎👍

This s a bad ass chase.

Loved that phukn movie almost as much as 48 hours.

'A little present for you my friend...' Sounds like something Tony Montana would say 😄

Back when Detroit made some real cars with real character

When cars can take massive abuse lol

Wow, a race through the subway tunnel! THat's awesome!

"Follow that CAR"!!!

What the hell kinda tires could take that kind of punishment? :) Man, I miss the Impala.

4:40 I used to drive cars on the train track in gta 3

R.I.P. Gregory Hines!

Mike Wazowski vs. Bail Organa

This chase scene is great! I love it hahah! amazing!

"try not to touch the third rail" XDD LMAO

This is the same station that Neal Page came back for Del Griffith in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

Great chase, and the interior of that Cadillac looks quite cushy.

There’s a great scene when they first get the taxi/police car; Gregory Hines is looking it over and isn’t quite convinced it’s real enough, their rivals in the department show up and razz them for their car. Hines backs the cab into the other guy’s car and says “...NOW it looks like a taxi!”

Who looked this up cause you just seen the movie and wanted to check the comments. It's absolutely perfect but got a little weird when they were driving full speed on the train tracks lol

Ah, the old Chevy caprice! Now that car could take a punishment!

Pan am !!!!! Remember that airline

Reminds me playing GTA vice city, 4 and 5

Love this movie!♡

If you're from the area, you can point out several errors during this chase scene that are hilarious.

Hey father, you owe me $28.50.

Try that with a plastic cadillac and plastic chevy cruze of today they wouldntve made it out of the airport

At 1:30 behind that billboard is the st.stephens convention center where Wizard con happens in Aug. The bridge is the same just the signs on the bridge have been updated. But that off ramp is 2 blooks away from the convention center. Back then the front was open to the outside, it's now Its all inside with a roof but it's more of less the same. The hotels have been majorly upgraded. Super nice area now. Every year I go and I can feel Gregory there.

Penguin: Holly Julio Gonzalez: Shiiiiiiiiit!

Am I the only one who thinks the railroad scene was satisfying?

I wish they would have at least had a sequel to this this is such a fantastic movie now when you ask about running scared instead of the movie with the late great Gregory Hines it's a movie with the late fast and furious guy Paul Walker everybody talks about 🙃

These Sound is always so clean 0:21 0:08

Leia: Dad, what were like when you were young?

At one point while the chase is still on the highway, Hines is seen moving his hands on the steering wheel while in fact the steering wheel is not turning at all!

When the old car don't have ESP

2:35 funny. A Billy Crystal action film.

I have for my whole life believed the nun thought Gregory Hines said ants (enough to push a train)... I haven't found it referenced that way anywhere. I refuse to believe she does not ask about ants.

In the movie Octopussy, Bond is going down train tracks in a car. General Orlov sees him and says, "follow that car!" Now you have two cars going down the train tracks. When Billy Crystal says that line in this movie, he sounds just like the general. Even though the cars don't go onto the tracks until later in the chase, I think Billy was referencing Octopussy.

When they pick up the car after its yellow cab makeover and they say it doesn't look like a taxi, then they ram the younger cops' Trans Am and mess up their car; "Now it looks like a Taxi."

whoa1 that's gonna hurt! (george costanza)

That was a good one

And people wonder why the caprice is Classic. S/o Dawg for cuttin up innat Box Chevy thang ✊🏿👨🏿‍🦱

The same station would appear the year after in...

Classic Action comedy

1:25 that’s in Rosemont, right next to the Donald E Stephens center off of I-190.

How have I never seen this chase before?!

If you noticed he is not really turning the steering wheel

So fucking scary when the bastard's car got hit by a damn train at 5:26 but I still love this badass car chase on the train tracks throughout Chicago!

Nobody : Me in watch dogs 1 : 3:56

What it’s really like to drive in Chicago….

This scene was all visual effects. No CGI. But it damn looked like it!!!!!

So funny!

Happy days!

Il tassista che non gira mai il volante ma ci fa scivolare su le mani non si può vedere

Good tires..

if you hit the third, rail you'll be well done!

Where did Crystal get the police light from??

HEY!!!

Rip Air Japan Lines 0:53

Hey!!!

ORD to Congress pkwy in 5min lol

So how did they get the car out the train platform? The only way would be going all the way back where they entered the train track but that'd too far and dangerous.

What happened here? What is this blow?💥5:26

Wtf, do they not believe in seatbelts?

If the nun could only fly……

What line were they driving on during this chase???
