Here are a few more worth checking out if you haven't already:
- Thief - 1981 - Michael Mann crime thriller.
- Sorcerer - 1977 - William Friedkin crime thriller (one of my favorite movies of all time)
- To Live and Die In LA - 1985 - Another awesome William Friedkin film
- Driver - 1978 - Walter Hill crime thriller and one of the best getaway films ever made with some awesome cars, awesome chase scenes, and a really cool main character.
- The Getaway - 1972 - Sam Pekinpah crime thriller that was straight to the point and quite entertaining.
- Le Mans - 1971 - A very realistic racing film starring Steve McQueen. One of the best ever made, and expertly captured.
- Robbery - 1967 - I believe this was based on a true story? Can't remember, but Peter Yates did a fantastic job weaving this one together. The opening chase sequence is still one of the best chases put to screen.
- The Day of the Jackal - 1973 - I absolutely adore this film. Fred Zinneman did an unparalleled job constructing this international espionage thriller that was basically the inspiration for games like the Hitman series. It's a brilliant film, but I wasn't too keen on the ending.
- The Professional - 1981 - Not to be confused with Luc Besson's film, this espionage thriller is a sleek little film with beautiful women, an interesting plot, and a lot of unpredictable outcomes.
- Billy Jack - 1971 - This film definitely isn't for everybody, but I loved Tom Laughlin's no-nonsense portrayal of Billy Jack as a stoic badass. The fight scenes are pretty cool in this, and the ending shootout is interesting. But Liberal-leaning politics of some characters can definitely be grating.
- Le Samouraï - 1967 - An interesting French crime thriller from Jean-Pierre Melville. Alain Delon plays Jef to perfection, and it's a well paced film that will leave you wondering what happens next.
- Grand Prix - 1966 - An absolute technical masterpiece from John Frankenheimer. There has never been and likely never will be a racing film captured the way this one was. Very scary. Actually realistic; and unmatched by anything that has been produced by Hollywood since.
