Wayne's World (1992)

Let me start my review off by saying that I have only seen one of the Wayne’s World sketches from Saturday Night Live, so I cannot speak of this film as a fan of the sketches. Multiple friends recommended it to me, so I decided to watch it. And let me say that I was very surprised by the results. After seeing the film, I could have sworn that it was a 80s film, as it has that screwball charm that I love. And if it was an 80s film, I could have added it to the list of why the 80s are great (best decade I never lived in). In the film, Mike Myers and Dana Carvey play tag-team Wayne and Garth, who hold a weekly cable access show. It is possibly the worst TV show I have ever seen, and this intentional failure is hilarious. The entire movie is hilarious, and while there are no moments in the film where I actually laughed, I was smiling the entire time. As I said before, the film has a sense of screwball charm that was so brilliant. It was very reminiscent of Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, a 80s movie which I loved very much. Wayne and Garth are losers. Wayne and Garth are strange. Wayne and Garth are heroes and visionaries…and very fun.
