I was reading about a web-site put together by BMW and it has action movies with some cool chase scenes. They are made by real directors (Crouching Tiger-Hidden Dragon) but I am at work and cannot load up on my POS PC. THe address is www.bmwfilms.com. Is it as good as it sounds? Madonna appears in one of them, but I don't know if it's released yet.

Judging by the fact that 159 people viewed the post and only 3 responded, it must take forever to download. I haven't even seen it yet myself.

I can access the site using QuickTime at 300k at my desk but I don't have privacy at the moment. Just getting into the site and seeing the short intro looks very promising!

That movie Ambush is directed by the same guy who did Ronin, and I should mention that I have NEVER seen a movie with better chase scenes than Ronin.
Rent it TODAY.

Without a doubt!!!! A definate must own DVD.

They've been running a commercial for the site on TV at night. Looks awesome, but alas, my POS machine can't do anything and my 28.8 connection hurts too much. I tried DL'ing the player, but it crashed after %99 completion. Tell me that doesn't suck!

Yeah, they started running the commercial a month ago during the F1 race. I tried to access it for a week, but it always had an error message, so I sent an e-mail to the webmaster, and then it took another week for 'em to fix it. I guess it works now.
