But is the product any good? Will I get to pull girls as good looking as he does.

I just thought that Ewan probably didn't NEED to do the ad, so maybe the fee was for charity or something.

I didnt think the advert was all that bad, the locations look good and the music sets the tone of what hes saying, what he dose say is a little cheesy tho

The string instruments could be taken as ''what is that noise all about?" reminds me of Babel(film from a couple of years back) all stringy and well kinda different.
Cant say watching the advert makes me want to call him a C*** or lash out at the TV....each to their own and all that!

exactly what i think when i hear/see the advert!
Turn around and think he's talking about long way down or something like that - then realise he's advertising some shitty aftershave,
didn't think he was that type lol

It's a cheesy ad as said but no way the worst. I think that Muller lick the lid of life advert beats it easily.
