Movie Reviews

Synopsis:
Two brain-dead California teenagers, with a combined vocabulary of approximately 75 words, travel back in time to corral various historical figures for a class presentation that just might keep the pair from failing history "most heinously." Napoleon, Socrates, Billy The Kid, Sigmund Freud and Mozart are among those who journey forward in time with the duo in order to give the youth of California eye-witness accounts of the "awesome" pageant that is world history. Most excellent.

Notes:
Film was followed by a sequel, "Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey" (1991), and an animated television series. Jane Wiedlin, the actress who plays "Joan of Arc", was formerly a member of "The Go-Go's", an all-woman rock/pop band that enjoyed a measure of success in the 1980s. Shot in Technicolor.

Reviews:
"...Delightfully inventive..." -- Rating: A - 06/03/1994 Entertainment Weekly, pp.62-3


"...There's a strong and savvy soundtrack....Witlessly appealing..." - 02/22/1989 Variety


"There's nothing better than watching Keanu Reeves save mankind, best Death, and interact with nifty special effects..." - 07/15/2005 Entertainment Weekly, p.57-58


"BILL & TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE does have fun with time-travel logic, and is filled with delightful little absurdities like Billy The Kid and Socrates tossing a football around in medieval times." - 12/05/2012 A.V. Club
