Wayne's World 2

I'm probably in the minority here, but I liked WW2 more than WW (that would be "Wayne's World 2" not World War 2). I thought the jokes were better and Christopher Walken was a trillion times better than Rob Lowe as the antagonist.

I think this movie is pretty underrated. I think it was just as funny as the first one the movie was very funny. Every scene from the Village People spoof to the scenes with Jim Morrisson and the naked indian to anything involving Garth and Honey Hornee(bodacious Kim Basinger) and the scene were Wayne fights with Cassandra's father(the movie's highlight) were just hilarious. I found this to be a most excellent sequel and I'm just hoping that Mike Myers someday makes a third one he probably won't do that now since he is milking Austin Powers to death. Anyhow this is one of the better SNL based movies out there along with the first "Wayne's World","Coneheads" and "The Blues Brothers" and I reccomend it to anyone looking for a good laugh.

The First thing I can say about this film is that it has an abnormal amount of cameos. Drew Barrymore,Harry Shearer,Heather Locklear,Kim Basinger,Aerosmith,Charlton Heston, the list goes on and on. That's now become a custom in Mike Myers movies(look at the Austin Powers movies). Otherwise this really is a great movie with some engagingly funny scenes, the Thelma and Louise ending cannot be missed. The films only let down is Christopher Walken's one dimensional acting.He's basically the same actor in every film. The best character is obviously Garth, although he doesn't expanded on his character as he did in the first one. I like the way they mock the movie for being a movie (can we get on another actor). Overall this is really a movie for fans of Waynes World and the comedy genre. As the slogan reads "you'll laugh again,you'll cry again,you'll hurl again". 7.1 out of 10.

Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers) and Garth Algar (Dana Carvey) are back and now they're set up in an abandoned toy factory still doing their cable show. Cassandra Wong (Tia Carrere) is cutting a demo but record producer Bobby Cahn (Christopher Walken) is trying to steal her away from Wayne to L.A. Wayne dreams of a naked Indian and Jim Morrison who tells him to put on a rock festival in Aurora called Waynestock. They go to England to find Jim Morrison's concert organizer Del Preston. Garth has a new dreamgirl Honey Horneé (Kim Basinger) while they try to raise the money for the festival.

The guys are still loads of fun. They have great chemistry together and that's what works for this franchise. The story meanders and is basically a spoof of various movies. They even go off and do one for 'Jurassic Park'. There are very good sly jokes but not all of them work. There is a good kung fu spoof with James Hong as Cassandra's father. Although sometimes I do want the story to just move on.

Slight improvement

The sequel is in the same fashion as the original, but is slightly better. This time the story makes sense, the references are more interesting, the spoofs better measured and sometimes really funny, and the whole movie is much more entertaining. It's still light years away from a good movie, but unlike the first one, this at least isn't a waste of time. If for no other reason, it's worth a look for big names such as Christopher Walken (in one of the lead roles), full Aerosmith, James Hong, Heather Locklear, Heather Locklear, and Charlton Heston.
