Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe

I am a huge fan of the original series and Do America and the follow up and I think this really carries on the same spirit of irony and stupidity. The visuals look a little different and it took a moment for me to adjust but the story and energy is every bit the same. This is a great update and it was entertaining.

I watched the last movie right before watching this and the sense of humour is just as it was back in the 90s. In fact I can even say that I laughed way more during this movie than I did in its predecessor.

The story line had some definite similarities to the last movie, but the animation looked different for some reason. Oddly enough Beavis and Butt-head looked the same, but all the other characters looked like they were from a different movie. It didn't look like the class Mike Judge animation, but the laughs were still there regardless.

All in all, if you're a fan of classic B&B you'll love this.

Twenty-six years since their last foray onto the big screen, woefully inept, single-minded nitwits Beavis & Butt-Head, two sides of the same coin, still don't have a learning curve and yet somehow manage to end up in space camp where their buffoonery is mistaken as an asset to an important space mission...which of course then leads to disastrous results. The duo's double entendre and off-color humor which was right at home in the 90s is sure to be curtailed in this day and age, yet that doesn't stop this from being an enjoyably goofy (and occasionally clever) showing. Give credit where credit is due, as co-writer and creator Mike Judge astutely zeroes in on the workforce, intercourse, toxic masculinity, plus incarceration, white privilege, and multiverses, in fact hardly anything is spared from parody but it's all done in a way that's both edgy and funny, and without being totally offensive. Doesn't break any new ground though there are plenty of chuckles throughout, though it's likely to be viewed as inconsequential to someone who isn't a fan of the source material. **½

While I appreciated the short lived reboot from about a decade ago, this bests it in every way. Great ridiculous story with some classic Beavis and Butthead scenarios. Mike Judge has outdone himself.

As other people have written, unlike many modern reboots and sequels, it's like a time portal to the '90s because Mike Judge changed nothing. I have rarely laughed as much at a comedy from the last couple of decades during this movie's first half. It lags a bit in the second half, but even during those mundane moments I was pleased to waste time with my favorite morons.

I was 15 when I discovered them on Liquid TV when they were 15, so it was... haunting... to see Judge's representation of them as they would appear as my age today. It was brief, yet haunting. But decades of idiotic living would truly cause that appearance. It's "the faces of meth" without the meth, I guess.

Great job, Mike Judge.
