I really don't need to review this film, save to address one issue. As the story goes, HE spies on HER 2-timing him with another man (THE final sin !); he tells her of his discovery; SHE HOSPITALIZES HIM ! Now, what if the film depicted such matrimonial violence in reverse roles? What if HE hospitalized HER after she informed him of her discovery of him 2-timing her with another woman? I'll tell you what would have happened: SOCIETY WOULD HAVE GONE INTO RIOT ! ! Mike Myers would have been cursed by the press (and society in general) for consenting to such a role, Tia Carrere would have been cursed by women's groups for the same consenting, and any cinema showing the film would have been picketed, arsoned even ! (Same fate would have happened to the film studios.) The directors and screenwriter's would have received death threats, and society in generally would have gone completely mental ! !I REST MY CASE ! !

Just one year after the original "Wayne's World" movie became a surprise hit, Mike Myers & Dana Carvey returned as Wayne & Garth for another cinematic adventure. Although generally regarded as being inferior to the first movie, "Wayne's World 2" nevertheless features several memorable scenes.However, I think that the main problem with the movie is that these scenes are sprinkled throughout a story that just plain isn't that interesting. After having a dream where he speaks to Jim Morrison about doing something with his life, Wayne goes about organizing a music festival. As you might expect, he quickly finds himself in over his head.This is a decent enough premise but the actual "Wayne's World" TV show gets almost totally ignored, so this needn't have been a "Wayne's World" movie to begin with. Although the story was supposed to illustrate character growth, the fact is that Wayne & Garth don't actually do a whole lot to make the festival a success. Apart from this, the Wayne & Cassandra romantic subplot mostly seems like a rehash of what we saw already in the first movie.I'm probably being a bit harsh on the screenplay, though. As I said before, there are several memorable scenes which are brought to life by a pretty good cast. Particularly notable is Ralph Brown as British roadie Del Preston. Other memorable moments are provided by the likes of James Hong, Kim Basinger, Harry Shearer & Drew Barrymore. Christopher Walken is also here in a prominent supporting role but, unfortunately, I find his character to be pretty colourless.Behind the camera, Penelope Spheeris didn't return as director due to clashing with Myers the first time around but "Kids in the Hall" alumni Stephen Surjik did a respectable job in her place. Of course, being "Wayne's World", music plays an important role in the movie. Overall, the soundtrack is probably better this time, even though there's nothing as iconic as the uses of "Bohemian Rhapsody" & "Dream Weaver" from the first movie.Ultimately, "Wayne's World 2" mostly avoids feeling like a retread but it seems to me that it works better in individual scenes than on the whole. It still makes for an enjoyable hour and a half but it's missing the indefinable spark that made the original stand out.

This film like the first one features the SNL skit characters Wayne and Garth and this time they are planning to throw one heck of a super concert. Tagging along hoping to make it really big is once again Tia Carrere. You know the Carrere that appears in both Wayne's World movies and virtually nothing else, not the porn star who is probably more well known and popular as she does not sing badly and her acting is on par with Tia. The concert part of this film makes for the best comedy in this one, while the whole Wayne/Cassandra romance once again makes up the weakest part of the film. Overall, that is pretty much what this film is, a bit weaker version of the first movie. When they are pulled over by the cop and it ended up being the cop from "Terminator 2" that was rather funny and unexpected. Here there is a similar joke that is so telegraphed that it is not even mildly amusing and rather pointless. There is a rather funny scene in this one where Wayne meets Cassandra's dad and while it is cheesy and a bit like the scenes out of the Police Academy movies it still worked. The ending though is not quite as good though. In the end, this movie could have been good, part of the problems with this one might stem from the fact that this one was released so shortly after the first movie.

This film is similar to the first part, but there is much more good stuff in it. Today I've watched two other Mike Myers's films - So I Married an Axe Murderer and Wayne's world and I compared both of them with Austin Powers series, but Austin Powers was much better than these two films. Now this film is really as good as Austin Powers. There were much more spoof on films and other jokes typical to Mike Myers films. More stars appeared in this part, especially musicians. I didn't expect this movie to be that good, because it has lower rating on IMDb than the first part has, but it's really better. Rarely the sequel is better than the original, but it happens.
