Ok, we've had some word that there is some bad red rope licorice circulating in the crowd. Please stay away from the red rope licorice. Do not bite any off or chew it. It could cause a dental emergency...
User Review
One of the few sequels that is better than the original!
Rating:
One of the biggest hits of 1992, the original WAYNE'S WORLD is a definite
classic and is one of the funniest movies of 1990's, but I am not a big fan
of sequels so I tried to avoid watching WAYNE'S WORLD 2 for a while.
Eventually, I finally got around to watching WAYNE'S WORLD 2 and found it to
be surprisingly better than the original. Part of the reason the movie
succeeds is because it has one of the greatest casts in movie history with
appearances by Christopher Walken, Heather Locklear, Bob Odenkirk, Robert
Smigel, Kevin Pollak, Kim Basinger, Chris Farley, Drew Barrymore, Ted
McGinley, Tim Meadows, Jay Leno, Charlton Heston, Ed O'Neill, and Aerosmith.
I'm not saying that a good cast automatically makes a movie great, but in
this case, it certainly helps.
The gags in WAYNE'S WORLD 2 are definitely more random and bizarre than the
ones in the original, making it even more fun than I expected it to be. Some
of these random jokes don't work as well as they should, though overall it's
still a hilarious movie that is good to watch with your friends. ***1/2
