the car chase in bullit is sooooooo shit...
basically cos it's no more than a montage of stunts with no continuity. if in doubt then count the hub-caps lost and the number of times we see the same (blue?) vw beetle... my point is that it has no credibility.
check out "fear is the key", starring barry newman, from a novel by alistair maclean (i think). the film is basically pants (pale blue nylon y's) but the car chase is certainly one of the best and far superior to the one in bullit. you can actually trace how each bit of action further destroys the stolen car, bent chassis and all!
i know this sounds like heresy BUT (and that's a big but) don't forget i'm critiquing the car chase and NOT the coolness of the main man!
