The people who worked on this commercial should get a cookie, love it

[ashisfine]

This ad is a masterpiece. Dark humor has never tasted so good!

Dorian and Daniel, I brought this up in a meeting with a car client yesterday as my favourite car ad made in the last decade (and I stand by it). It still gets a reaction. It still stands out. It's superb.

[maricelagomez]

B is for brilliant which you happen to be.

[Gambit]

Great job guys... I know it's really not easy making something original and fun but you guys did it!

[dragpalace]

I´m watching it over and over again. Very clever made. And absoutely hilaric.

[w.antenbring]

Amazing but I don't see this on TV anytime soon

[iThink]

Creative Genius At Work! This advertising jewel deserves an Oscar!

[elwindewitte]

I absolutely love it! Thanks guys, awesome work!

[Mohsenmusicpoetry]

The clip was impressive. I was impressed by aging and death. Thank you to the creator of this clip. Youth clearly showed aging and death. The length of a life in thirty seconds.

[Dalloden]

Glad to see new work out of you guys! This is gold

[b.]

This will go down as an immediate classic.

[ЛёхаЛис]

That's correct! I've tried that myself being a passenger of such Volvo car. It really stops itelf automatically in front of the obstacle if driver doesn't use brakes.

[douglaswhite]

Love it well done really great. I gotta watch this again.

[greghutchison]

The value of this ad is that it helps us forget the terrible reliability of new Volvos, momentarily.

[rakeshpendre]

A is for Amazing!! What an advert you guys!! Well done!!!

[videolabguy]

Loved the punch line! How did so many miss it?
