बिल & टेड'स बोगस जरनी

Bill and Ted face a threat to their future.

For me, it is not as good as the original but has some standout moments.

To enjoy Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey you have to accept the silliness of the plot for what it is and appreciate some of the humorous concepts that work well. The writers have gone for bigger and more outrageous concepts. The black humour of death and the afterlife has some very funny moments, but also some I personally find a bit tiresome. However, comedy as always, is in the eye of the beholder so I appreciate others may find it consistently funny.

I think William Sadler's tribute to 'The Seventh Seal' with a hilarious Grim Reaper character is the highlight of the movie as he steals every scene.

Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves just about pull off their stoner double-act with their characters written as adults, but for me their goofy charm is not the quite at the same level as when they were depicted as high school seniors. I do though love the secondary double-act as the "Bad Robot Us's". Having evil versions of the same characters, with the same mannerisms and catchphrases was a great idea.

Joss Ackland has a strong cameo as the main baddie, but he is only seen briefly.

Visually, I remember being impressed with the special effects back in 1991, but looking back it appears slightly dated now in certain scenes. That being said, the art design is still very strong, especially in the scenes involving the afterlife, heaven, and hell.

Oh, come on, learn to have a little fun. When I was a kid, oh, this movie was Oscar-worthy to me. I thought it was absolutely hysterical. One of the best movies I had seen.

Now, it's a little stupid, but come on. If you enjoyed "Excellent Adventure", you should most likely have fun with "Bogus Journey". This was the movie before "Dude, where's my car?". Only this one is actually funny. Like I said, it's just a good time. It shouldn't be taken seriously and if you enjoyed the first one, you should like "Bogus Journey". It's just a funny movie with some memorable characters. For your enjoyment only, watch it, let go, and remember that it's a silly comedy. That's all.

7/10

When I was a kid, I totally loved both Bill & Ted Movies. The other night, Bogus Journey was on and since it was at least 5 years since I last saw it, I decided to tune in. AND I LOVED IT ALL OVER AGAIN! This film is still funny after all those years. 'Excellent Adventure' is better, but this one rocks just the same. Sure, some of the perfomances are a bit cheesy, but hey, this entire film is cheesy in a cool way. Plus it features the coolest personation of Death ever in a movie! Concluding: Totally like non bogus movie dude! Way Excellent! STATION!!!

I can't tell you how many times I saw the first Bill & Ted movie before ever seeing this sequel...because it was a sequel, so I figured it wouldn't be as good. I was wrong. I first saw it on television; my sister watched it with me. I couldn't stop laughing. She kept shaking her head, saying, "it's not funny, it's stupid" - but she kept laughing, too. How can you not laugh at the sight of Death playing Twister? Or, "You ugly, red, source of all evil!!" I loved the first movie, but I think the second, despite being darker, is funnier, more imaginative, and better written. William Sadler as Death was so, so, funny, so dead on (no pun intended), he deserved an Oscar nomination; this film made him one of my favorite character actors. Alex Winter & Keanu Reeves made Bill & Ted into airheads you root for. They're stupid, sure, but man are they good-hearted! So thumbs up from me; a third Bill & Ted movie would probably be too much, but they did go out in fine style. Catch you later, Bill & Ted!

Funny and ridiculous as ever. The grim reaper is an excellent addition to the world of Bill and Ted and the evil robots have provided me with one of the best catchphrases of all time which I have used for decades since "Ive got a full on Robot Chubby" has been utilised on many occasions to express my satisfaction in life. A silly yet enjoyable story provides many laughs and the ending with the band finally coming good and actually being able to play lives long in the memory. Great tune also. Lacks a bit of depth from the original as the historical characters bring so much in the first movie and I also felt like the ending comes along a little too abruptly and seems a bit rushed. Still a lot of fun and deserved of a 7.
