I’m here with a rundown of all the best Super Bowl commercials, as curated by my personal taste. I’ve got write-ups on my three favorites, plus links to my honorable mentions.

Best Super Bowl LIX commercials – runners up

Jeep: Freedom (w/ Harrison Ford)

Harrison Ford doesn’t do too many voiceovers—or at least not enough for folks who find his voice to be enchanting, like myself—so seeing a long form ad in which he’s the leading man was captivating from the jump. Throw in some meaningful reminders about heroism and courage, a bevy of takes on what freedom really means, and a play on words with Harrison’s own last name’s conflict of interest with the brand of car he’s advertising, and you’ve got a clear winner here.

Michelob Ultra (Pickleball with Willem DaFoe, Catherine O’Hara)

These two don’t often lose, but they don’t ever lose in the 2020s. And that’s sort of the point of the commercial, no?

Pringles: Call the Mustache

There’s just about nothing that Adam Brody can do these days that I can’t get behind. And his deadpan, world-weary cap to the commercial—”I’m just gonna go to the store.”—is absolutely reminiscent of his fantastic performance in Kid Detective. One of the most underrated movies out there in the last five years.

Best commercial of Super Bowl LIX

Ritz: Salty (w/ Aubrey Plaza, Michael Shannon, and Bad Bunny)

Watching Michael Shannon gruffly chastise a Ritz cracker for being a “buttery, salty showoff,” is all this commercial needed to automatically catapult it to an early and commanding lead over all over advertisement eventualities from the game. I believe this one aired during the second quarter.

Aubrey Plaza calling herself “the human version of Monday” aligns perfectly with her singular joie de vivre, no?

I don’t think this would’ve won outright without Michael Shannon’s ridiculous hair.
