Well there is Vanishing Point for one. The original, not the horrendous re-make.
As much as I like Bullitt, I've watched VP over 20 times. A very impressionable movie on a young dude that watched it in the theaters.back in 1971. It's one reason why I own an R/T today. Mustangs on the other hand I have always enjoyed, movie or not.
Kowalski lives!

Pontiac Trans Am Makes a Good Show in Hooper, Thunderbolt & Lightfoot a Supporting Role in Corvette Summer and Of Course the Blockbuster Smokey & the Bandit Series! Everybody Wanted a Trans Am in the Late 70's at Least For Awhile! I had a 78 Myself & a Cowboy Hat to Boot!

"War of the Worlds" with Tom Cruise 1966 Shelby 350H



And what old guy here didn't love this pic of Farrah sitting on her 1977 Cobra II in "Charlie's Angels".

Thread topic is related specifically towards "Hollywood Action Movies" rather than television series

Here's an example!

Speaking of Mustangs in movies, this is in MY TOP 5. It checks all our boxes here at home. SciFI, RomCom, Road Trip.

Which movie was that from? I saw that from a long time ago, but forgot the name... I thought it was from one of the Jeepers Creepers movies, but I'm not sure... I remember the original "Jeepers Creeper" featured a "59" Chevy Impala sedan

I know it wasn't a "star car" of the movie but being a Mustang nut, I always remember the movie Tommy Boy, where they're traveling and I think it's around the time they're singing with the radio, and there's a fox body Saleen coming down an on ramp. It always stood out to me because there weren't a lot of those.
