MTV junkies Beavis and Butt-head awaken one day to find their beloved TV stolen. On their adventure to do a murderous smuggler’s wife (Demi Moore), they encounter an FBI agent (Robert Stack) with a predilection for cavity searches, two rather familiar looking ex-Motley Crue roadies, Mr. Van Driessen singing "Lesbian Seagull", a little old lady, and, of course, Mr. Anderson and his trailer. Can the Great Cornholio save the day? Let’s hope so! |

Mike Judge has proven that he can make a hilarious half hour show, but with each episode being split in half by two different stories, the characters critiquing music videos, and commercials it certainly makes it more of a challenge to bring forth a worthy eighty minute movie. Fortunately, Mike Judge knew what he was doing and created the funniest film of 1996.
After having their television set stolen, Beavis and Butt-head (Both voiced by Mike Judge) try to find a replacement. Doing this they accidentally walk into the life of Muddy (Bruce Willis) who believes that they were sent to him to kill his wife, who stole a biological-warfare unit from him. Beavis and Butt-head go to Las Vegas, and while there they meet Muddy's wife, Dallas (Demi Moore), who hides the war device in Beavis' shorts. She sends them on a bus trip to Washington D.C. eventually planning to steal the device back, the whole time Beavis and Butt-head thinking they were sent to "do her" and still trying to find a tv.
This movie has some laugh-out-loud gags that took me by surprise. The humor may be considered for juvenile teens, but it is hard not to laugh at the two morons. I give creator, director, and writer Mike Judge so much credit for being able to transfer the funny characters into a hysterical motion picture. I have to give credit to Robert Stack who voiced Agent Flemming and believed Beavis and Butt-head were "the most dangerous men in America", and Cloris Leachman who played an elderly woman who thinks they are "young men who are so well behaved".
I also appreciate that this movie kept its PG-13 tv style. It could have easily become an unnecessary R rated movie.
Definitely the funniest movie of the year, I give "Beavis and Butt-head Do America" eight stars out of ten. |

I enjoyed this film a lot more than I expected to. I was never very taken with Beavis and Butthead's short sketches on MTV, and in truth they've never really taken off in England the same way they did in the States. The somewhat obvious satire lacks the gentle wit of Mike Judge's other creation, "King of the Hill", and spending 80 minutes in their company was a dubious prospect.
However, ...Do America sensibly opens out the scope, taking in less broad targets. For a start, we have Beavis and Butthead's hippie teacher, who gently strums his spiritual song, "Lesbian Seagull". It's a testament to the profile of the cartoon that Englebert Humperdinck gives his own rendition of this for the end titles. But best of all is their neighbour, redneck Tom Anderson (Catchphrase: "I'd love to get my hands on those two b******s for whacking off in my camper van"), who, while not the same character, has the exact same voice, personality and appearance of Hank from "Hill". Judge obviously knew when he was on to a good thing and built a series around this great character.
The plot is brilliantly silly, with the two boys getting involved, unwittingly, in a plot that sees a killer virus, attempted murder and the emergence of World War III. President Clinton even makes an appearance towards the end. Movie culture is openly lambasted, starting with King Kong, and taking in an opening title sequence (theme song by Isaac Hayes, a year before South Park) that parodies both Shaft and Charlie's Angels. Look out too for the climatic "slow motion" sequence.
Jokes are puerile, such as the two obnoxious leads laughing uncontrollably at the word "wood", or another scene where a man asks the pair "have you got a match?" "Yeah," replies Butthead, the slightly smarter of the two, "my butt and ... uh ... your butt". It's childish, but it made me laugh. Not the most subtle exercise in wit, the film is still a worthwhile, and, by it's own small ambitions, successful picture. |
