Summary: To Hurl or Not To Hurl
Review: Ok. It may not be Shakespeare, but I'm betting the non-high brows out there will love these films. Mike Myers at this best. To me the second of the two films is the best due to all of the puns of other more "serious" movies. You must remember to get the brown M&M's or Ozzie won't go on stage...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Two Dreadful Films......Not!
Review: Released in 1991 and 1993, these are probably the two best "Saturday Night Live" - based films ever created. The humor is dry and witty, the acting is splendid and great music (a little "Bohemian Rhapsody", gentlemen?).

"Wayne's World" is about two guys named Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers) and Garth (the too underrated Dana Carvey) who host their own cable access show in Aurora, Illinois and enjoy rocking out to their favorite tunes. While at a club, Wayne catches a glimpse of the babelicious Cassandra (Tia Carrere - schwing!). Wayne and Cassandra hook up. Soon, a slimy tv executive (played deliciously by Rob Lowe) offer the two headbangers $ 5,000 and their own cable tv show. (Exsqueeze me, a baking powder?). Things seem to be alright. Wayne and Cassandra are in item, he and Garth meet Alice Cooper (we're not worthy, their perrenial line). But things start to go awry. Cassandra and Wayne break up, they blow the show, and Garth and Wayne throw away their friendship. Can the day be saved? Just watch and find out. And be on the look out for cameos by Chris Farley, Donna Dixon, Robert Patrick, Alice Cooper, and a diabollically funny Ed O'Neil as a disturbed (albeit disturbing) donut shop employee.

1993's "Wayne's World 2" makes a valiant effort to recapture the magic from part one, and it succeeds. This one takes place one year after the first film. Wayne is wondering what to do with his life once his show ends. One night, Jim Morrison and a naked Indian come to him in a dream, telling him to invent a concert and book big names. Meanwhile, Cassandra signs a contract with a sleazy record producer (Christopher Walken, devilish as always), and Garth has the hots for Honey Hornee (that's Horn-ay, and she's played by an incredibly hot Kim Basinger). Once again, things soon go askew. None of the acts show up (except for Rip Taylor), and Wayne gets dumped. Once again, can the day be saved? Watch and you'll find out. Also, try and spot appearances by Chris Farley, Aerosmith, Ed O'Neil, Chris Farley, Kevin Pollack, Olivia D'Abo, Charlton Heston, and Drew Barrymore.

These are two comedy classics that have been immortalized with this boxed set. Special features include and commentary and intervies with Myers, Carvey, Lorne Michaels and others involved in the making of the film. Excellent.

Summary: Incredible films - buy them
Review: The exuberant youthful anti-establishment rantings are great, plus superb singing and comic cameos, but of course it's Wayne and Garth - the well-developed characters from years of showing at SNL - who carry this great optimistic show. One question - why don't SNL produce a Wayne's World special containing all of the SNL Wayne's World spots (ideally on DVD)? It's long overdue, and due to the success of the movies would rake in a fortune. Go do it!....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent DVD
Review: The Wayne's World movies have always been favorites of mine. I grew up watching both of them. Now I'm all grown up and love them even more on DVD because I actually get all of the jokes. The first movie is obviously the better one, but the sequel is just about as good as the original. Its alot of fun with the second movie because they get to play around alot more with their characters. The DVD extras are pretty good. The menu screen is pretty entertaining, as it looks like a tv guide menu. There is a short documentary on each movie. Could have used some deleted scenes though. All in all worth it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another SNL skit turned into a hit movie
Review: These 2 movies are the best of Mike Myers at his funniest. Mulitple endings, good sense of humor, great music sound track. Sometomes its those movies who dont win the awards that are the best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wayne's World 1 and 2
Review: These films are hilarious, and you're better off buying the "Complete Epic" box set. Plus, Amazon sells it for $16.79!
I've reviewed the films seperately, which is why this review doesn't say much, but, trust me, these are great for curing boredom, or if you're a Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Saturday Night Live, or even a Rob Lowe fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Two of the funniest movies ever made by anyone ever
Review: These movies are just hillarious. Dana Carvey and Mike Meyers provide some of the great comic perfomances of the decade. These are fabulous films, that launched Mike Meyers carreer of stardom. A classic.
