Ok, maybe I'm a little bias, but I love every minute of this ten minute commercial (except maybe the minute where they show the cars.)
The reason why I love this short is the cute star, Tad Tadlock. It's fun watching her reactions to the new cars and the Kitchen of Tomorrow. She even gets the opportunity to perform the Dance of Tomorrow. This woman could sell me the goofy looking Firebird 2. It's a real shame that she didn't appear in any feature films at this poin in her career.
The singing is very good in this short. The woman singer has a cute voice and it complements Tad's character.
Some people criticize this short. This film shouldn't be taken so seriously. The story takes place in a dream. It's suppose to be a fantasy! The Highway of Tomorrow is neat, even if you can tell what it is. The film was made to sell cars, but it's a lot of fun to watch.
I recommend this film and the similar yet inferior "A Touch of Magic".
