Ten months shy of a 40th anniversary. The realism — crashing car metal, wild sideway skids, flying hubcaps — is awesome. The superb hand-held camerawork and knowing it’s absolutely real (as far as that concept goes) is half the fun. That even the high-level fakery that David Fincher used in Zodiac (which you can’t spot) isn’t part of it. Seen it 20 times; ready for another 20.
