Heineken great escape ad

unclejunior

Am I the only one who doesn't get this ad? I'm not sure whether it's directed at men or women but what I can make of it is that the guys are trying to escape from a retreat after being sent there by their partners. What I dont get is why they are trying to escape? I mean if they didn't want to be there they could just leave or am I missing something?
Is the ad trying to portray a female desire to mother their spouse or something along those lines?

You probably didn't get it as it was Carlsberg, not Heineken.

I'm surprised it is heineken?! or not carlsberg, rather. Forgive me for never paying attention to it for I hate the great escape theme like I hate theme from cheers

/it is carlsberg.

Urgh. It's a moronic ad. I liked the movie but the references turn up so often that I can barely watch it now.
Plus, none of the overgroomed pretty-boy detainees are anything like as handsome as Steve McQueen...
