Uma Thurman Drives Gallardo Spyder
The first Pirelli film titled “The Call” was more of a satanic, tire-smoking standoff than a forum for promoting tires. But it was artsy, very well photographed with plenty of cool special effects and intriguing; a thinking man’s endorsement of Pirelli tires.
The next film called “Mission Zero” is a no-holds-barred action film with Uma Thurman driving a yellow Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder trying to evade assassins shooting at her from an old Mopar B-body with a fake supercharger. The conflict stretches from Beverly Hills to the Los Angeles port and is action for the sake of action.
Very little to think about in this short film, which was directed by Kathryn Bigelow (Point Break), except why a Lambo can’t outrun a sled from the late ’60s in a 20-mile chase. The action isn’t limited to the asphalt. There are knives, machine guns and a shoulder-fired rocket; all of which sometimes feels like a bad homage to the “Kill Bill” series.
