the first film have little ambition so nothing stick to the screen . it be a bad version of back to the future with zero charm . once accept that bill and ted be nitwit and the joke can only get hammer at the audience for so long before it break . this be a surprise . this be your only spoiler warning . by today standard and this be more fun . this be shun upon release and sad consider that more talent be involve than the first time . we get the photographer of face or off and the editor of fugitive and a production designer from burton early work and and the sound designer of matrix . the writer make up for their shallow first out with something deep . since this be shun by the fanbase and public and the director probably decide the style be too extreme . it not and it fit the material . like death become her and catch 22 and this dare to be smart and but we like our movie simple so we do not buy it . probably since this dare to be different be why it take 12 producer to pull it off . what so good . nice self reference towards keanu while from airhead to messiah . see also arnold schwarzenegger . joss hat his creation as much a he hat their counterpart and he make his own hatred . the evil b and t and the good robot usses have the same vocabulary a their original represent less copy and depreciation of language . the duality motif . nowhere else be this evident than in the photography style and lot of high and low angle . they even use roy brocksmith from total recall to emphasize the point . the choice motif . i do not know where this start in the genre ( maybe ghostbusters ) and but it use pretty well here . it even boil down to the 7 game against death battleship and club . film self reference and even present in the game against death ( clue ) . this be smart than tarantino or brook . notice the premier magazine cover at the end represent bill and ted represent the movie . ironic also how death and nomolos be villain in the die hard and lethal weapon sequel . i still have some minor nit and but nothing compare to the original . music and film be different medium so it make no sense why many script revolve around the former particularly in the teen market . carlin be a great comedian and but in these movie he waste . also and for all the dare this effort show and even crack gay joke and they can not kill a cat . so and despite look like a nickelodeon production and this be incredibly interesting . from this movie we get beavis and butt head . be in heaven and we just mug three people . final analysis equal equal midrange material .
