The Hire is a series of short films made by BMW together with some of the worlds best directors. Ambush - starring Clive Owen and the BMW 7-series. Directed by John Frankenheimer.
Is that true? Well this is a masterpiece. I still judge actions scenes based on this short film I watched 21 years ago. Everything about it is so tight and perfect.
The dealership I work for wound up with this car after this video came out. The bullet holes and damage are real and we displayed the car on the front lawn for people to gawk at as they drove by.....
I ever want an E38 ,have a 540i E39 and i love that car,have to sell It like a year ago N i miss that car ASF, now waitin for an E 63 645 CI lol cant wait
That car was once the worlds sportiest limousine... To see a legendary piece of German engineered art go through such carnage... It hurt me to watch... Poor beautiful machine... 💔💔💔I still feel nauseated... I didn't know they created horror films too!!! 😱😵😫😨😵😭😭😭 May she never see a *gasp!* scrap yard (throws up everywhere, moans from agony, and passes out)...
"Wow the safety features and brakes on a BMW are so good, honey, even if we get shot up by bandits our children will be safe! Come watch this movie! Can I buy a BMW please?"
This guy's business model makes no sense. The tiny stack of cash he got handed at the end of the job is nowhere near enough to pay for the replacement of the car. He is not even breaking even on these jobs...
After Pierce Brosnan times there were few actors considered for the role. Christian Bale (after American Psycho preformance) said it is a story about an old Englishman and the series is 'too British'. Hugh Jackman said he was X-Men so didn't want to do more heroes. Henry Cavill was way too young, now he is to famous (Superman, Man from U.N.C.L.E, Mission Impossible) so I do not think he will be chosen. About Clive, producers refused to offer gross profit points for any movies Owen made in the role. (!!!) All 007 actors were unknown before they became secret agents. Also it is a commitment for + - 20 years, you need to accept and do lots of things (commercials, interviews etc.). I am not sure how many actors would be happy to do it. Will see who will be after Daniel is retired! :-)
@Matthew Caughey the 460 in few configurations produced around 365 HP to almost 400 hp. It's not something to laugh it, both the e38 and Econoline weigh very similar. I simply hated my 460 only because it was hungry for gas, I personally prefer the 351w myself, or the 300 six if going smaller
@Matthew Caughey I wouldn't describe a 460 as overrated, I've owned many different engine setups and the 460 has serious power, the MPG was just so terrible no matter what I did, used almost 4x the fuel of my 351w
My friend works for an autopilot company. An interesting fact. Men who do not include turn signals before turning are prone to passive homosexuality, smokers drivers to extreme oral sex, exceeding the speed are sexually preoccupied

Golden era of BMW
2:49 Love how all these cars are boxy old 70's, 80's and 90's cars to make the BMW look so cool and modern
In his prime, Owen would have made a fabulous James Bond.
absolutely.
He was considered for the role.
thats what i always thought too, bmw's and owen always fit like a glove!
ь
I like to call him Clive (please make me James Bond) Olwin lol
This series is why I drive a BMW today. Flawless marketing, awesome films.
same though!
What are the other series besides the follow and star
The Ambush, Ticker, Hostage, Beat the Devil, Powder Keg, The Follow, Chosen Star@@bag2963
To me this was the beginning of a viral video. I had to mail into BMW then got the DVD eventually, this was a masterpiece
That was when I had a 740il year 1998. I miss that car and that year even more
Khalid Sahar i drive a 750il from 1998

These videos were originally released in 2001-2002, I had the DVD until it got damaged.
@@ii-ti9xt С 26-летием, я тоже скучаю по 90-м, хоть и родилась в 80-х.
BMW’s are the ultimate driving machine
John Frankenheimer's last film. No one could shoot a car chase like him.
Is that true? Well this is a masterpiece. I still judge actions scenes based on this short film I watched 21 years ago. Everything about it is so tight and perfect.
Every single one.
I Liked His Movie "Dead Bang" with Don Johnson.
@@GlennDavey what was that short film?
One of the best classic scenes of driving action
I drive an E38 every day it's such a cool car.
The dealership I work for wound up with this car after this video came out. The bullet holes and damage are real and we displayed the car on the front lawn for people to gawk at as they drove by.....
pics?
How can the bullet holes be real, you don't really think that they use real ammunition in movies, do you kid?
0:00 A legend was born 🙌
I wish... Clive Owen should have been James Bond
Clive Owen a great actor.
My typical drive home in Chicago.

The E38 was one of the best cars of it's time.
I still feel sorry for not having mine anymore.
That was the best 7 series model of them all. The e38.

Love the E32 also!
agree.
I use to love these short films
What the movie name
That better be a tip and not what he paid him. You see the damage to that car
That was at least a grand, probably 2
In the 90s-early 2000s
Probably good enough

I've crushed quite a few of these cars, they all don't live forever, some prime examples should
When BMW'S where just all round the business
Most beautiful 7-series of all time.
This shows how you do small films that do the test of time for commercials
BMW E38 ✨✨✨
that 740 would leave that van like it was parked
It's an m5
Dinheiro Ricos Conselhos uhh nope! It’s a 7 series for sure.

"Wow the safety features and brakes on a BMW are so good, honey, even if we get shot up by bandits our children will be safe! Come watch this movie! Can I buy a BMW please?"
What I've learned:
BMW really liked to destroy their cars to make an ad
N also the BMW 740 is so slow that the van can chase up to it no problem
@@Rafiki_Mandrill you have never driven one!
Dora The Exploder bro its a joke, n i used to daily a e46 m3 until half a year back when i 2jz swapped it n now it is in pieces

Iam from india state of tripura.. This video is amazing
No body makes ads like the Germans. 😎👍🏻
I still miss my Z4
Just noticed the old guy in the back of the car is Tomas Milian.
Ma tu lo conosci Tomas Milian per altri film come la Banda del gobbo mi sai raccontare un po di lui vorrei sapere se lo conosci
My E65 would have walked away from the van like it was parked. That said, the 7 series are solid beasts at 4500 lbs.
Tim McNamara same, my e60 would have done the same
@@alexzhou7 The Bimmers are neat cars. I bought an '06 750i in July and I'm still discovering some of the gadgetry.
The 5 series are beautiful cars.
Weird flex but ok. Just saying it wouldn't work out that way
M8 this was 98.
Wow,,,,, that was awesome
Hi
Amazing video 👍
That van handled that severe U turn on the median surprisingly well
His payment maybe, just maybe, covered the outstanding lease amount for the car he just ruined.
Lease? He drove it like He stole it..
or he just stole the car
He's insured.

It's too late... he was the perfect age 21 years ago when this came out
BMW KING
Such a shame that John Frankenheimer never directed a Bond film.
fun fact, at one time he was supposed to PLAY james bond!
@@plasticweapon Yeah, I heard about that. I am glad he was never cast. A yank should never be Bond.
@@ricardocantoral7672 Why not, as long as he has the accent down? Brits play Yank characters all the time.
@@latinboy906 True but I think one should aim for the genuine article.
All the good directors are gone now. Only the children who grew up learning how to make movies by watching movies.
Amazing e38

Not really, 460 is a serious power house

@Matthew Caughey 2 of my E250's have 460's, the E150 was never offered with a 460 afaik but the F-150 could also be bought with a 460
I want that van.
I am a bit worried if he paid enough to help the "transporter" get a new BIMMER

Everything else is fine but after all this....why the air bag does not open... I'm just asking. ...😉
Фильм класс !!!

Anyone that owns an E38 knows that thing would have thrown a TRANS FAILSAFE error or at least a bad ABS module.
You still alive 😂
I would still like an E38
Nice van
БМВ 😡👊💥💯🔥
3:36 did he just pressed gas pedal instead of a clutch?
Yes😂
Fail !! It's a Steptronic !!
Wait. His car in the gear shifts its a automatic, but when it shows the peddles it's a manual

Clive Owen should have been James Bond instead of Daniel Craig. Still haven't changed my mind.
While I agree that Owen would have been a great 007, I can't complain at all about the movies with Daniel Craig.

Why was Clive Owen never James Bond?
Full Movie Name Please ??

one thing that always bothered me was, how come the airbags didnt pop when he took out the Van's headlights..
How to survive from killers.
