9. The Matrix Reloaded
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBWOnPI7j5s Easily the most outright bonkers car chase on the list, and the only one that fully roots itself in non-reality, what with the various spawning Agents and also the Virii twins chasing Morpheus, Trinity and the Keymaker for the entirety of it. This 17-minute chase along a treacherous freeway cost roughly $40 million to shoot alone, but it's clear to see where the money went with this barmy, exhilarating scene, which cements itself as one of the most brilliantly insane car chases ever filmed. Though this sequel had its fair share of critique, this car chase sequence received pretty much universal acclaim, with the highlights including Agents diving on cars and pancaking them, a fist-fight inside a car, a swordfight atop a lorry, a head-on collision between two of them, and of course, Neo showing up to take care of business. The fantastic score by Don Davis and the likes of Juno Reactor also accentuates the thrill factor considerably. It's unapologetically soaked in CGI, and this is one instance of filmmakers doing it right; it's totally excessive and utterly, utterly brilliant.
