Not everything including bad guys chasing the good guys or vice versa is to to with parkour. It's just a simple fact that when the guy chased moves smoother and smarter than the people chasing him he's more likely to get away. And everybody know that when you include cool death defying leaps and breath taking vault it's quite a lot entertaining. They already knew that in the way before the 80's.

Amazing! the "grandpa" of B-13 and Casino Royale chase scene. The music selection fits nice!
