Movie Reviews of Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey
Movie Review: My Daughter loved it
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie was in good condition and my daughter loved it. I think she watched it three times in two daysMovie Review: If there was ever a good a reason to pluck your eyes out on the spot this is it
Summary: 2 Stars
I loved Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. It's one of my favorite "teen" flicks. This however, I did not like as much. While the first one was brilliantly stupid, this one was just stupid. Believe me there's a huge difference between the two films. If you watch this, I promise you, you are guaranteed to have your IQ drop. The characters they meet, Station for example, are so stupid looking they remind me of kind of monsters you would find in a little kid's Saturday morning cartoon show. Only in this case, the creature is not animated so it looks million times more ridiculous. I still don't understand why it needed to morph into two little creatures. And the evil Bill and Ted were equally stupid. I mean what was up with them trashing the place for no reason? And why on earth were they detaching their heads? Was this scene really necessary for the general flow of the film? This entire film was ruined by stupid stuff like that. However, if I had found this movie in my cereal box, like some people apparently have, I probably wouldn't be complaining as much. The movie did have some funny parts. At least Bill and Ted's dialogue didn't become redundant......... or at least not in an unfunny way. Their comments were still almost as funny as the first film's, if not funnier in some cases. And the showdown between Death and Bill and Ted was also hilarious, but considering I rented the film and didn't get it in my cereal box, neither of these things makes up for the unwanted appearance of the Easter bunny. What on earth was the director thinking? this film reminds me of a blend of funny jokes with stupid situations. So in conclusion, this movie could have probably been good, if they had changed a few things. Unfortunately, however, they didn't. In result this movie for the most part is unbearable.
P.S. If you haven't seen Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, don't let your opinion of this film get in the way. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure was hilarious beyond belief.
Movie Review: Doesn't even come close to the original...
Summary: 2 Stars
Bill & Teds 'original' & definitely excellent adventure was a great movie - largly because it was such a simple movie, about simple character, but very original.But this movie, the 'bogus journey'wasn't aws original, funny or interesting to watch. Knowing that a sequel can't be surprising as the original, the team that created this movie tried being original, and ended up over doing it A LOT... For example: a Martian scientist (the best in the galaxy) that can split into 2 smaller creatures, and become one again. Or death as a raper, or all 'robot usses' - both the good and the evil or the futuristic fashions in pastel plastics imitating the 'good robot usses' clothes... There were a few recycled jokes like Missy (the boys peeping down Missy's shirt, 'She's your mom, Dude', Missy's marriage to...) which are funny more because of the context rather than the joke itself.
I bought this DVD without watching it first based on the fact I loved the original so much. This was a HUGE mistake...
Movie Review: Excellent Adventure, but way Bogus Journey
Summary: 2 Stars
This movie was nowhere near the original, so should you wish to watch it, don't expect to be in stitches the whole time. I honestly like it less and less each time I watch it, which to me is a mark of a bad movie. It does have it's moments, hence the 2 stars (it is after all Bill and Ted, it HAS to have moments!). My suggestion is rent/borrow it before purchasing it. If you love it--buy it. If not--don't.Movie Review: Nowhere near as good as the first one
Summary: 2 Stars
Bill and Ted are a little older now and so their naive, dumb personnas don't work as well as the first time around. The Station character is non-non-heinous and seems totally out of place. The Grim Reaper is great though and the scene where Bill and Ted battle with the Reaper via Milton Bradley games is one of my all time favorite cinema moments.
