I know someone that worked on this, It's unbelievable to think that this whole film was shot in London..

·I thought it was Ronin, but I just checked and it's different cars.. anyway if anyone doesn't know the car chase in Ronin, it's right up there with the best, with no comical CGI !!!, stick it on a big screen and crank it up real loud:
and shots almost certainly influenced by:
Ronin is indeed awesome but I'm afraid there is some comical CGI in there. I can't recall the exact scene but there's some tyre smoke when a car pulls away which is the most horrendously bad CGI ever committed to film, and once seen cannot be unseen!
It's also very optimistic in terms of how matched the cars are in real life pace. But... Still a great film and great fun. Just... Not very realistic!

·“Fast and realistic” doesn’t necessarily equate to “fun on film”, we’ve established 😎

·So it was really thinking about the amount of time and effort that I would put in to something that wasn't going to be original, at best it would be mildly interesting as a homage...

·Crazy, I actually had a 2001 Audi S8! Would have been awesome to ship it over and create our own OF Ronin homage 👍
epically understated sleeper, that S8.

I've never actually driven an S8, but I understand it's a bit of a beast in the right hands.. The closest I've ever driven was a road-going semi-race spec Audi Quattro from the 1980s, it belonged to my boss at the time and he would track it ..it was incredible, but completely bonkers.

·I am not sure how well known this film is. The actors playing the main characters certainly are, but I never heard much about the film. Its six years old and its a good laugh, here are the films bad guys for starters.

As a child of the 70s/80s, the Ur-Quattro is an absolute grail car for me. But these days I live in an environment where car ownership makes zero sense. While I miss the shopspace to be a gear head, it benefits my watch budget greatly 😎

Thats right, Michael Pena is one of two main characters, the other one is the blond guy in front of him in this picture.

·Totally admit I didn’t know this movie… I’ve looked up the answer on IMDB to keep from going bonkers, but will leave it for someone else to know/solve 😀

·War on everyone (2016)
Just rewatched this tonight, so thought I'd kick start the thread again with a screenshot. Not too hard, I think.
