The humour in this frenetic film spanning human myth and history isn’t massively sophisticated, but it’s elevated by sharp writing, nice production values and very enjoyable performances. It’s a rare piece of commercial video I’d genuinely like to see extended into some kind of TV-length work.
As for the campaign’s message – yes, it’s a bit facetious to dismiss the genuine problems phone and social media addiction are causing society. But as the brilliant podcast proves again and again, we’re hardwired to look for the dangers in new technology, and don’t spend enough time celebrating its obvious benefits. So hats off to Three for doing so with aplomb.
