Week 5 EOC: Super Bowl Commercial


Looking through a lot of Superbowl commercials, this one in particular stuck out to me. It's a commercial entitled, "Halftime In America" narrated by Clint Eastwood. Clint talks about a speech relating to both teams in the locker room and how they can make a comeback in the game, whether they are losing or how to finish the game for the championship. It's not just "halftime in america" during the Superbowl, but literally halftime in america too. "And we're all scared because this isn't a game". Many people are without jobs wondering how they will make it through their lives and striving their best to provide for their family. But despite all the trials, we all come together as one and look to what is ahead of us. "This country can't be knocked out with one punch. We get right back up again and when we do the whole world is going to hear the roar of our engines" - Clint Eastwood. This commercial is very inspiring and motivating enough for many people to make a change in their lives. Most importantly, it gives us a boost or reminder that we can make the world a better place when we all unite as one. Another story behind this commercial is that Clint Eastwood talks about the city of Detroit and how Chrysler lost their business earlier this year. With the company struggling, as well as many Americans, he says "But after those trials, we all rallied around what was right, and acted as one."
What i really liked about this video is how it was made, showing supporting details with various actors acting through difficult times. It relates to the average men and ones daily life struggles. All in all i consider this as one of the best Superbowl motivating commercials.
