A two-minute parody commercial on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" has created a lot of controversy, and some are saying it was in poor taste.

The clip is a spoof of a Toyota commercial, "My Bold Dad" that ran during Super Bowl XLIX. The father in the spoof (played by Taran Killam) drops off his daughter (Dakota Johnson, who gets into a truck covered with ISIS flags.

The clip was received with criticism (and some praise) on social media.
