I went to see this originally because i'd read a magazine article about the special effects in this chase and a couple other scenes (the Mercedes jump, particularly).
Many critics hated this film, and it's regarded as one of Clint's worst movies. I actually like it. It's not a masterpiece, but it's enjoyable and it's not his worst (Pink Cadillac is his worst).
@GoblinGirl As an ardent Eastwood fan, I would agree that The Rookie isn't one of his best films, but not bad, either. It seems like it was too long and complicated, for some reason. And Charlie Sheen's poor acting didn't help.
When someone posts the scene where Sonia Braga "does" Clint please call me, lol...Sonia Braga was hot back in those days. Guess she still is.

Michael Bay must have liked this chase so much he did his own car carrier version for Bad Boys 2.
