I don't have time to grab screen captures at the moment but I can guarantee with every ounce of my soul that you will have 3-7 closeups of the gleaming Chevy logo periodically throughout the flick. When you remember that nothing in a movie nowadays is accidental, these shorts really start to get on your nerves. |
not entirely true. VW would not allow them to use the new beetle. Something along the lines of VW not wanting their brand associated with war/violence.
