Just like the other BMW short films, this one also has its fair amount of nice action sequences. These are easily the center of the film. Owen's and Chaykin's meeting early on is a solid thriller sequence, but everything afterward just doesn't really develop the drama plot until its expected outcome, but offers the viewers something that is nice to watch, but shouldn't be thought a lot about.
A man needs to save a woman from drowning in the trunk of a car her now-dead kidnapper put her in. On his way to heroism, he shows us why BMW cars are apparently the best thing to drive. It was nice to see Darius McCrary, even if it was just very short, as his Eddie Winslow was a crucial character in one of my favorite childhood shows. This film was made briefly before people were looking for the next James Bond to succeed Pierce Brosnan and Clive Owen was one of the most likely candidates. The BMW shorts certainly added fuel to his name being in the mix. All in all it was an okay movie, but nothing I'd be particularly interested to watch again, especially the second half.
