    Very good story line, the escape from the helicopter by spinning around was great! Enjoy this clip very much! Certainly 100000000 times better than the Nissan 350Z's.

    You can get this videos on the BMW official DVD, called The Hire (2004) which you could order online for free and pay only for the postage charges which is 7USD all over the world. I don't know if it's still available now.

    You have reknowned directors who produced these short clips including one guy from HK. My favourite clip was most definitely the one which he conjured up the sand to create a blanket over the car to escape.

    karheng,

    there is 2 HK director, John Woo and Wong Kar Wai, which WKW did a romantic version of the series, Adriana Lima was the main cast. Ang Lee did a concerto version, dancing cars. A.L. story was about a chosen Dalai Lama, and it previewed the HULK which was released shortly after his BMW work.
