Movies that feel likeGone in 60 Seconds (1974)

Insurance investigator Maindrian Pace and his team lead double-lives as unstoppable car thieves. When a South American drug lord pays Pace to steal 48 cars for him, all but one, a 1973 Ford Mustang, are in the bag. As Pace prepares to rip-off the fastback, codenamed "Eleanor", in Long Beach, he is unaware that his boss has tipped off the police after a business dispute.

If you loved Gone in 60 Seconds, the closest films we have are The Street Fighter (1974), Branded to Kill (1967) and In the Line of Duty 4 (1989). All three share Gone in 60 Seconds' kinetic and gritty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Battles Without Honor and Humanity (1973).
