It's held up awfully well over twenty years, especially for a TV ad that was aired exactly once as a commercial (although countless additional times as an advertising icon). See it here, in your choice of screen sizes. Shows what a good director (Ridley Scott) and an unlimited budget can do.
And if you want to see an analysis of the advertisement that I'd say easily goes way beyond excessive, check this out. It starts out with the easy comparisons with Metropolis, 1984 and Stalin, and branches out to David and Goliath, the Wizard of Oz, and the Garden of Eden. Entertaining.
