"Gone in 60 Seconds" stars Nicholas Cage as a retired master car thief Randall "Memphis" Raines. In this action suspense film, Raines' brother's life is threatened. Memphis comes out of retirement to pull a massive car heist involving 50 cars on a single night. He assembles a crew of fellow car boosters including Angelina Jolie who plays Sara "Sway" Wayland. The crew attempts to boost all 50 cars in an effort to steal all the cars before Kip, Randall's brother, deadline is reached. Despite a few snags in the crew's plan, things go fairly smoothly until the last car which Raines tries to steal. As might be expected, there are many car chases featured in this film....

Notes
Goofs:
Continuity: Directly before the chase in Elanor, when the camera is zoomed in on Memphis, Dectective Castlebeck and Dt. Drycoff's black BMW is seen pulling into view for a few seconds. When the camera cuts back to a less zoomed view, the car is seen pulling into view again. (more)

Trivia:
The scene where Sphinx, Vinnie Jones' character, takes out a knife to cut the dog open after they found out it ate the keys to the cars is a play off of the scene in Snatch where Vinnie's character, Bullet-Tooth Tony, is told by another character to cut a dog open after they are led to believe that it swallowed a diamond.
