I really liked the movies, especially Star (long, spoilers)

How much can you trust a 6-paragraph review with so many mistakes in it? He shows no comprehension of the stories in the various movies:
First of all, Beemer is a motorcycle, Bimmer is a car.
In "Ambush" neither I nor my friends thought the accent of the diamond carrier was at all Latin American. Additionally, they aren't in New York, but in California, as evidenced by the plates on the cars as well as the name of the taxi company on the street.
In "Star" the driver doesn't get fed up and swerve all over town like a madman (and it's STILL not a Beemer!)--the star's manager hired the driver specifically to give her such a ride, as a kind of wake-up call/payback move.
Take all commentary you read (including mine!) with a grain of salt. This reviewer really didn't understand the movies or make too much of an effort to like them--I smell a hidden agenda of some sort of BMW-backlash in his efforts.
