CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Annie (Sandra Bullock) successfully jumps the bus over a gap in the freeway.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
If you don't think Speed is the fastest-moving adventure film ever made, we challenge you to find a faster one. Keanu Reeves stars as an LA Bomb Squad specialist whose principal antagonist is elusive bomber-extortionist Dennis Hopper. Seeking vengeance after his latest ransom scheme is thwarted, Hopper presents a personal challenge to Reeves: A wired-for-destruction city bus, which will detonate if the speedometer drops below 50 MPH. Playing the reluctant civilian who is pressed into service as the bus' "substitute driver," leading lady Sandra Bullock became a major star in her own right. Once Speed gets to the meat of its story, the excitement never lets up--not even after the boobytrapped bus is out of the picture.

[@joeblowe5813]

@@Biscuit1973 Even if the bus had no passengers, just the driver, it still WOULD'NT have made it-not could'nt, WOULD'NT. I used to drive buses, interestingly enough, for the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (locals just call them Metro). Transit buses (and many other types of buses as well) have their engines in the back of the vehicle. The weight of that heavy diesel engine would have plummeted that bus to the ground the instant it hit the edge of that freeway gap; it would'nt have made it even half that distance. Yes, I know, it's a movie, and in movies everything is fictionalized. I understand that. I'm just saying that in real life, it would'nt have mattered how fast that bus was going, 70 or even higher. It would have been a physical impossibility for any bus to pull off a jump like that.

In August 1994 my family moved into a new house that wasn't fully completed yet. We had no cable or tv antenna on the house, and the small tv top antennas didn't work well for us. The internet was dial up and we would get nagged to get off right away whenever we went on. It was hell. Then for Christmas we got Speed on VHS. It was the one thing my sister and I, both teens, and our little brother could always agree on. We watched it everyday, sometimes more than once a day, for a whole month. Then my parents got the cable hooked up. My mother said she couldn't listen to the Speed theme music anymore. This movie will always hold a special place in my heart. ❤️

I wish for the sake of the plot the LAPD had at least made an attempt at a halfass ramp of some kind. I remember at 14 in the theater thinking "no f***ing way" 😂😂😂.

Speed is full of thrills, tension, soul and tons of heart. The chemistry between Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves is the driving force that keeps it going because as an audience member, you genuinely care about the characters and hope they make it through. Speed is still my all time favourite action movie!

[@jp3813]

While making Jaws, Peter Benchley complained about Steven Spielberg's decision to have the shark explode via a compressed air tank in its mouth. The director simply said that if he can make the audience commit to the story all the way to that moment, they wouldn't care about how unrealistic it was. By the same logic, Siskel & Ebert acknowledged the implausibility of this bus jump, but heavily praised it for being so much fun. That's how excitement in movies work, folks!

[@Wyzzkyd]

Well typically women, children or old people are the ones we see being protected or consoled in these action movies. But Jack was showing concern to a guy not much different from him. And the guy despite acting kinda suspicious didn't turn out to be a hidden villain in the end, he was really just scared. What makes this even better is that it was Keanu who advised them to make Jack more earnest and polite, because originally he was a John McClane type with a bunch of forced one-liners that made him kind of a smartass.

They did a pretty darn big jump for the scene. Read it on imdb in the trivia section! you will be surprised. The bus even jumped bigger than the crew expected, thats why the top of the bus is not shown in the jump, because it was out of the cameras views, it was so high haha

Alan Ruck’s reaction and acting here is underrated for me. He’s expecting to die, like I would be. He’s probably just saying a prayer and expecting the end. When he realizes they’ve made it and that he they’re not dead, I feel like he starts thinking “well maybe we can do it.” There’s gotta be a situation you’ve had before where you think everything’s over but it isn’t. You can still come back and win. All of that without any words spoken.

Had that happen when I was on the 210 freeway construction zone. Had no shoulder and it was at a blind curve. I had to hit the brakes behind this car that had stalled on the right lane. I thus had to wait for the left lane to clear to get out. Then I saw it an 18 wheeler coming up behind me fast. It got to a point where I gave up and just closed my eyes waiting for the 18 wheeler to crash into my car. I braced for impact. It did not happen. The 18 wheeler last second passed on the left. I cried and laughed in joy just like the Speed passengers.

The bus was on an empty highway and drove up a ramp at 70mph, and achieved a jump of 50 feet. CGI removed the actual highway (shadow is still there) and they removed exactly 50 feet from the highway. However, even though they physically made the bus jump and spliced the effects together, there is no incline in that situation so the bus would have fallen through the gap and crashed.

The engine on a bus is at the rear. In a car its at the front. When u get air in a car, the front end comes down like a sack of shit, hitting the ground first. If a bus was to try it and was accelerating hard, the rear would drop first. So i believe anyway. Im not an aviation expert however lmao. Just a theory 👍

[@tomlopez6042]

John Slack No, because there is no turning effect once the vehicle clears the end of the road. The front will always fall once the front tires clear, and then it will stay like that once the back tires clear, no matter where the centre of mass is.

FakeAceDisgrace the point is not in how implausible it is. The point is how much tension it creates and how much you like the characters.

I still get chills when I see the police cars fall back and stop. It says," They are in God's hands now."

“Everybody Hold On!”, just in case you’re not paying attention!

[@Adamdow95]

The number 1 movie of 1994, the year before I was born. Still one of my favourite movies of the 90s.

[@williamhicks7736]

This scene is hilarious! The build up shows the speedometer pressing to 70 mph, the unfinished highway, with gap and a sign saying “road ends” which is when Keanu Reeves’ character tells everyone to “hold on”, and that’s when you see them all react and scream, as if they don’t have the ability to see what’s coming down the line! Oh my, what campy fun!

[@Spacemonkeymojo]

You forgot the part how the bus magically shoots upwards when making the jump lmao.

[@heddalee]

The movie shows us that the gap isn't visible until they're seconds away from it.

[@ZiggyHernandez]

They landed it! And the few passengers who aren’t dead have severe spinal injuries! Victory is ours!

[@scatcat1994]

In the UK this movie was release under the name: "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down"

[@stringsnare]

seriously? why! LOL

[@leetownsend278]

@@stringsnare: he is yanking your chain. I used to live in England and saw the movie when it came out at the cinema and it was released as "Speed" in the UK.

[@spaea2062]

I was 4 when this masterpiece came out. 90s kids memories.

[@LiquidusSnakeX]

can't believe I never noticed you can still see the bridge shadow at 0:09.

[@imranbecks]

Lol.. They forgot to remove the shadow with CGI

[@PRClimbStudio]

I have seen this movie multiply times and i still get tension when i see this scene. The whole movie is just great and the soundtracks are everything!

[@borisjohnson2606]

And the whole time there wasn't actually a bomb on the bus... " You know what a bomb is that doesn't explode Jack... It is a cheap, gold, watch"

[@borisjohnson2606]

Yes because it hit the plane, if you listen closely Dennis hopper explains there wasn't a real bomb on the bus...

[@MUDSWAT]

Lol, that bus would drop like a stone. Instead, it jumped up in the air and flew across the gap. Like the kid in ET!!

[@Pana79]

Remember taping this off the TV and this entire sequence was replayed so much by my sister and I the tape wore out. Mark Mancinas score was absolutely epic. I reckon this movie and Basil Polidouris score for Hunt for Red October is what made me love film scores so much today.

[@courtgizzle]

This is a symbol of taking a big leap of your life. If you want to take a leap, don’t look back, clear your mind, focus, and keep looking forward.

[@NA-or8fn]
