Neither chimps nor humans should be subjected to such shabby mediocrity.

On a technical note: The word "disconnect" belongs here somewhere. No way that configuration of three idiots would resemble a chimp.

It would be nice to see an actual configuration that did seem to create the shadow depicted. As Billoughsby noted, it doesn't seem as though it would work the way they're standing. Too bad.

Yup, this would have been pretty cool except there's no way that shadow matches up with 3 people.

Yes. agreed also. That was a excellent ad. It had a high degree of precision back of it.

This, on the contrary, is a sloppy throwaway execution that feels, comparatively, like a 30 second ad for a car wash opening with a couple of local celebrities. Awful.

newsflash: Devolution of humans to monkey shadows matched only by regression in creative power of agency.
