1989 time travel comedy
Rating: 10/20
Plot: Two morons are in danger of failing history. That would cause a sequence of events leading to the break-up of their band which, somehow, would change the future. So George Carlin is sent in a Tardis to help out.
The makers of this didn't want to use a car because it would have reminded people of a DeLorean. Apparently, they hadn't seen any Doctor Who. This movie is too cheaply done and dumbly written to really be worth anybody's time. The titular characters are likable enough, but the humor is so easy that you wonder if Bill and Ted actually wrote the movie themselves. It could have been clever; they certainly had the right characters for it. Unfortunately, it all seems dumbed down for potheads and thirteen year olds. I was probably part of the intended audience for this when it came out--teenagers all ready to embrace Beavis and Butthead with open arms--but it didn't work for me then and works even less now.
