A football advert for non-fans of football.

I've gota hand it to Nike, they commission amazing adverts. The one directed by Guy Ritchie last year was amazing as it was, but for the 2010 World Cup, Nike have really raised the bar. This time the director is Alejandro González Iñárritu (he even enlists good friend Gael to cameo in the advert), and such is the level of pop culture referencing that even Homer Simpson bungs up, with a good "Ronal-D'oh!" line. Goddamn, this is a fine, fine piece of filmmaking, as good as any film I've seen: -



Become a Fan on Facebook! (My sorry little group has presently just three fans, if you join, I'll love you forever =D))
