The world of our distant future is a veritable utopia, thanks to the lyrics of two simple-minded 20th Century rock and rollers, Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted "Theodore" Logan. However, a would-be conquerer threatens to throw history off-track by sending "most non-non-heinous" evil robot Bill and Teds back to kill their good counterparts. Finding themselves dead, the boys must outwit the Grim Reaper and traverse Heaven and Hell to return to the land of the living, rescue their "babes" and have a "most triumphant" concert at the all-important Battle of the Bands.
Leave your thoughts about Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey.
| VarietyVariety Staff[The] filmmakers might have gotten more mileage if they'd rooted their adventure a bit more in reality. |
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfAn anarchic motion picture, but reveals triumphant originality -- a sublime daredevil of a film that authentically assumes a great deal of risk. Not many sequels can lay claim to that. |
| Washington PostHal HinsonThere's nothing bogus about this locomotivated follow-up; it's a truly excellent adventure, hilariously inventive, greased-lightning paced and dumb-bunny brilliant. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA riot of visual invention and weird humor that works on its chosen sub-moronic level, and on several others as well, including some fairly sophisticated ones. |
| Juicy CerebellumAlex SandellEXCELLENT! (But not quite as EXCELLENT! as the first.) |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonA most excellent sequel, funnier and livelier than the original. |
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrBill and Ted have a guileless, immediate way of dealing with the world that makes them both very likeable and highly entertaining to watch. |
| Filmcritic.comKeith BreeseThe plot is awash in weird humor and outlandish gags. |
| EmpireLloyd BradleyOne of the most worthwhile sequels of recent years, maybe funnier than the original as it intelligently expands the potential for the surreal and it ties up all the loose ends managing, quite remarkably, to give pointlessness a purpose. |
| The New YorkerMichael SragowIn the middle of this confident retread, the director, Peter Hewitt, and the writers, Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon, sandwich something far more free and funny--a slapstick version of "The Seventh Seal" in which Bill and Ted play games with Death. |
