CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of terrorism, explosions, murder, bombs, bomb threats, car crashes, gunfire, police, death.

By all logistical rights, this movie shouldn’t exist, let alone be a massive hit. The director used a highway in construction to set up massive special effects sequences that quite often had to be done multiple times and reset in different locations to match continuity. And all of this is because the movie is about a bus. A bus that has to go faster than 50 miles per hour. Somehow, some way, Jan de Bont mustered up all of his filmmaking experience to come out swinging with a debut feature that redefined the action genre. And it doesn’t hurt that a slow-burn action star and a breakthrough comedic actress had some of the best chemistry we’ve ever seen, and they’re alongside Dennis Freaking Hopper. This is one of those movies that really makes you think of that term “movie magic.” Hold the remote real tight and don’t drop it as we discuss Speed this week on Macintosh & Maud Haven’t Seen What?!
