A very excellent return – / movie


Bill and Ted face a music review

Do Bill and Ted exist in 2020? That is connected with the big question The face of Bill and Ted Music, The long-awaited third film in Bill and Ted A series that comes after about 30 years Bogus Journey. The two loving dimwitted slackers who find themselves the world’s unlikely savior seem like a wonderful remnant of the ’90s, products of the kind of absurd surrealism that can only come from the minds of very young, very stupid or very high people. . The world has changed dramatically since the 90’s, and not much for the better. It takes time for realization, for that kind of realization સારી good luck Bill and Ted Dressed on his scattered, undersized sleeves, passed. But the truth is, this movie could not have come at a better time.

The face of Bill and Ted Music It provides the kind of healthy, wide-eyed kiddie we need now more than ever. The point is original Bill and Ted Movies came in the ‘0’s and 90’s, when the satirical troupe was at its height and that kind of silly optimism that Excellent adventure And Bogus Journey Paddle was mocked. Bill and Ted It was a direct refutation of the rarity, and they have yet to return to our screens to help us out of our most deeply deeply insolent times.

Alex Winter And Keyu Reeves Coming into their roles like Bill and Ted, they seem to be stepping into another skin – skin that is a bit juvenile and doesn’t look as good under the top of the crop. But it’s not clear if these are both Bill and Ted that we know and love Excellent adventure And Bogus Journey, For better or worse. And it’s only bad for Bill and Ted, who are presented as a washed-up pair of musicians, Rufus (the late George Carlin, appearing in stock footage in Sweet Consent) probably never survived. Will. In the zippy beat described by his daughter (Samara weaving And Bridget Lundy-Pain) Which is designed like VH1 “Where are they now?” In particular, we know that “World Rescue” ends after the concert Bogus Journey, Humanity had become normal. Wild Stallins broke up with their killer Bassist Death, and over the years, Bill and Ted resorted to playing open mix and married Ted’s younger brother (who, in a happy turn of fate, is now marrying Missy).

Yes, the midlife crisis comes for all of us, even the ever-cheerful pair like Bill and Ted. But the movie does not overdo any additional paths brought about by their failure to write a song that will unite humanity. Authors Ed Solomon And Chris Matheson (Who has written all three Bill and Ted Set up an exciting continuum of ideas presented in movies) Excellent adventure And Bogus Journey – Where both characters were aimless teenagers with their whole lives, who To be able to Glad to save the world, why not? But instead of chewing on the dramatic flesh that comes with the idea of ​​failing to achieve anything significant with their lives (a subject that may at first sound very good for the audience who saw the first two films as equally aimless teenagers). Face the music Bill and Ted use Midlife Crisis to start the plot: they have 78 minutes to write a song that saves humanity or reality because they know it will crumble. And being Bill and Ted, these two have decided that the best course of action is to travel a few years into the future and steal that song from themselves. Almost immediately, the film leads us to a stunt broker adventure in which Bill and Ted have no time to think about failure. Instead of facing the play Face the music The joke will crack, then move on.

But you can’t blame Bill and Ted In fact, it is arguably their biggest appeal – for movies not to be particularly deep. In that vein, Face the music In addition to preserving the legacy of his predecessor, throwing us into non-stop adventures like ignoring Bill and Ted, finding themselves future versions that become increasingly frustrating and increasingly gloomy (but resulting in some great messes, such as Reeves and Bandana with Bad Goat). , And prison sports buff physique and spell “Best Excellent Be” tattoos). That part is a twist on Bonkers It is a wonderful life, Part Excellent adventure Return to the subplot with the daughters of Bill and Ted, who find their father (who (whom they admire and never accept disappointments) is taken into the future in an exciting time-travel pod by Rufus’ daughter Kelly Kristen Schul). Sure his dad is in danger, he persuades Kelly to teach him how to use a time machine so he can help the best musicians in history compose his dad’s song. There are some funny moments in Thea (Weaving) and Billy (Lundy-Pain) adventures, including a 1920s tour to impress Louis Armstrong with a smartphone and a musical battle between Jimmy Hendrix and Mozart, but most of their subplots play more like a straightforward version. Excellent adventure, Weaving and Lundy-Penn basically playing more musical versions of their dad.

Okay, so towards nostalgia-biting Excellent adventure Expected, but what about the Gonzo quirks Bogus Journey? Don’t worry, it kicks in, mostly in the second part of the film, where the comedy finally thanks to the introduction of a killer cyborg, played by scene-stealing. Anthony Carrigan. Sent from the future by the great leader (Holland Taylor) To kill Bill and Ted based on a new theory about the phenomenon that will save reality, Cyborg is a ruthless, intimidating machine that kills dozens of people… .He feels bad about it. As in death Bogus Journey, Cyborg – the one we know by the name of Dennis – is a genre of hallmark frenzy, an opponent providing an insecure bust that only wants to sit with cool kids. Every line that comes out of Carrigan’s mouth is delighted with the gut-raising, which it delivers with all the pride of a school nurse child who accidentally entered you and dropped all his books (which is surprising considering the amount of this kind of artificiality). Berry Is under breakout). I want a full film of Dennis following in the footsteps of Bill and Ted’s Hell, requesting recognition.

But speaking of death, William Sadler Apparently exploding under a black gown and white make-up, split over creative differences and then reunited with Bill and Ted (Death is an “all-bass album,” and flops). Seeing the three of them together again is like being wrapped in a warm blanket, and for all Face the musicNo faults (this Kid girl Does a cameo No Work and Jayama May And Erin Hayes‘Princesses are a kind of disposable), she has managed to capture that feature for her entire runtime. When the director Dean Perisot (Galaxy Quest) Is a more measured approach to decision making Bill and Ted Stephen Hirak’s dancing was stupid Excellent adventure And Pete Hewitt’s Fantastic Leaps Bogus Journey, He manages that silly, good-natured relay of the series with the sheer help of laughter.

Face the music Just too heavy Nice. She’s a cheesy, operative, pure kid who cares a lot – maybe about trivial things, maybe about wrong things – but what the boy cares about. And they just want to share their joy (like a rock ‘n’ roll) in the world for those who care about them. So sit back, don’t think too much, and friends, party.
