Many things can make an action movie memorable, but one of the best things to include is an exciting car chase. Real-life car chases are stressful and can make onlookers worried for their safety. Still, there’s something incredibly satisfying about safely watching someone zip through traffic or try to evade authorities from behind the wheel. Whether it’s just one person being pursued or a whole group of individuals trying to outrace the competition, movie chase scenes are an art form all to themselves, and their success depends on the hard work and coordination of multiple teams working together on each film.
