Movie Reviews of Classic Commercials
Movie Review: wide array of commercials
Summary: 3 Stars
This two disc set is worth it for those interested in old advertising, jingles, popular culture and nostalgia. The quality is lacking, of course, some of the animated adverts especially suffer as you can't see the product or labels. But I have a decent set of eyes, and this is acceptable when you take into account that these are ads that weren't expected to be around even a year after they were produced.
Ideally I would like a set like this to give a little background on some of these ads, as you hear a lot of the same narrators (or similar sounding). Obviously, due to the relative low production value of the the set, there are relatively few (or none) of the "big" companies like Coca-cola, Kellog cereals, beer companies (you get a few Hamm's and Black Label ads but only one Budweiser ad, for example). But still, this set has a great array of ads. And this is definitely going to be rewatched.
