Best Detroit Movies

[Motor City Sam]

For a cheesy, silly, but still entertaining 80s buddy cop movie, check out
"Collision Course", which was filmed entirely in Detroit. It featured the Grand Prix, the Hotel St. Regis, the Majestic/Garden Bowl, and other unique Detroit locales. It starred Pat Morita and Jay Leno. Leno was drag racing a guy on Michigan Avenue near Tiger Stadium in one scene.

"Narc" looked and felt like a Detroit movie, although only a small portion of it was actually filmed in Detroit. There were shots along Woodward and on Belle Isle. It was an excellent movie, too, although very dark.

I was watching them film the scene on Woodward in from of the old Hudson's. I also saw them filming in Trapper's Alley during a foot chase. I don't Leno has moved that fast since.
