I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I was young "unable to watch it" according to parents yet sneaked a few if they went to bed early enough and didn't enjoy it. The fault for that was no one's other than having heard it so many times without the images from my room at the time. By the time I saw it it gave me a sense of disappointment because I had too much time using my own imagination before (like reading a book then watching the film). That aside I was older and the movie came out. from the start I was like: now were talking. I was desensitized from the past preconceptions and the film was great, I put it up there with others like Ren & Stimpy, etc. Finally I went back and enjoyed the series. Then there were new seasons later on/not too long ago, very good yet only one critique: they weren't as stupid which is fine because it was almost run into the ground that way. In the end the new elements to the characters made it stay in my favorite cartoons.

MTV slacker icons Beavis and Butt-Head find their TV stolen. This sets them off on an epic quest to get a TV. They stumble onto a murder for hire. They are told to do her but she turns out to be an arms smuggler with a deadly virus. She sends them on a bus trip to DC with the virus sewn into Butt-Head's shorts.Mike Judge has created two lovable idiot slackers. They stay lovable throughout and that's why this movie works so well. These are slobbering sex-obsessed idiot teens. Of course, some people can try to take it too seriously and complain about its low-brow vulgarity. They would right that this is vulgar but it doesn't make it lowest common denominator. This is well written by smart people and not just a series of bad jokes. This is a fun movie with some pretty big laughs.

I remember going to see 'Beavis and Butthead Do America' when it came out in the cinema back in 1996. I was nineteen and had never bothered to watch the cartoon it was based on. My expectations were low, but I found the whole film hilarious and couldn't believe how I'd never watched the TV show before.Now, as the decades have passed, I occasionally slip the DVD back into the machine, namely to try and recapture whatever I originally saw in it. I've watched it about three times since the cinema. Each time I can barely raise a smile. In the TV series, the two titular characters spend much of their time on their sofa, watching the television. Therefore, in order to give the film a little more scope, they're set is quickly stolen, giving them an excuse to leave the confines of their house and go on a road trip across America. Naturally, it isn't just as easy as buying a new telly. They also get caught up in a plot to assassinate someone and inadvertently transport a weapon of mass destruction across the country.However, despite all the many different directions the film now goes in, I still don't find it as funny as the first time I watched it. The ATF agent charged with the task of hunting the two 'fugitives' down it still quite funny. He has a 'catchphrase' still gets an audible chuckle out of me every time he uses it (if you haven't already seen it, I won't spoil it for you). But, he's about the high-point of the film – in my now adult opinion. And, seeing as he's only a peripheral character, I find I'm not getting as many laughs out of the central characters as I am a secondary one.Maybe this film appeals to younger people. Maybe I've outgrown its deliberately 'low-brow' humour. Maybe it's a sign I should never watch anything that 'kids today' enjoy? I guess that Beavis and Butthead Do America spells the end of my illusion that I'm still part of that demographic. I'll still probably watch it again in a couple of years just in case my opinion has changed back again.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/

Animated MTV characters Beavis and Butt-Head made their feature film debut with this very funny movie that actually does a good job of sustaining itself for 81 minutes, with a pretty good story and plenty of the kind of humour that us B & B fans love so much. It's gleefully lowbrow stuff, and that's just the way we like it.Our favourite antisocial horn dog teenagers wake to discover that the most important item in their lives, their TV set, has been stolen, and their search leads them to a shady character named Muddy (voiced by Bruce Willis). Muddy offers them $10,000 to do his wife Dallas (voice of Demi Moore), and B & B readily accept after misinterpreting the word "do". They become embroiled in an elaborate plot to steal a powerful biological weapon, all while following the quintessential B & B agenda: trying to score!B & B's assorted adventures include making life miserable for cranky old neighbor Tom Anderson, causing havoc at places such as the Hoover Dam, the appearance of the legendary Cornholio (who, of course, just needs TP for his bunghole), encountering two very familiar looking former Motley Crue roadies, hallucinating in the desert, and having some eventful plane and bus rides. (It's just so priceless that B & B, upon seeing that they'll be on a bus full of nuns, can't see past the fact that their fellow passengers are chicks.) The colourful cast of characters also includes Agent Flemming (in an inspired bit of casting, Robert Stack voices this part), an ATF agent obsessed with cavity searches. Cloris Leachman plays the aged "slut" on the plane & bus, and Eric Bogosian, Richard Linklater, and David Letterman (billing himself as Earl Hofert) round out the various pop culture figures supplying voices.And everything is set to a kick ass soundtrack that begins with a "Shaft" style number co-written by Isaac Hayes and B & B creator Mike Judge. Other artists heard include the Red Hot Chili Peppers, White Zombie (Rob Zombie also supplies the artwork for the hallucination sequence), AC/DC, Rancid, LL Cool J, Ozzy Osbourne, and Butthole Surfers.If you're a fan of the TV series, you're sure to enjoy "Beavis & Butt-Head Do America". It's extremely agreeable from start to finish, and doesn't overstay its welcome. It delivers more laughs than a lot of live-action comedies.Eight out of 10.
