Keanu Reeves (The Matrix) and Alex Winter (The Lost Boys) deliver "spirited performances" (The Hollywood Reporter) in the original righteous comedy about the two ditzy dudes from San Dimas California. Also starring George Carlin this hysterically funny historical comedy is a "snappily directed" (Time) "bouncy good time" (The Boston Globe) and a party that goes on and on!Bill (Winter) and Ted (Reeves) have spent so much time forming their rock band The Wyld Stallyns that they're flunking history. Whoa duuuude! And when Ted's dad threatens to send him away to military school Bill and Ted realize it could mean the most heinous end of The Stallyns! Luckily a guardian angel from the future Rufus (Carlin) has come to them with a most bodacious solution: a time-traversing phone booth to take them into the past to learn about the world from some of history's most influential personalities. Their journey through time turns out to be a blast...but will they learn enough to pass their class?System Requirements:Starring: George Carlin Keanu Reeves Alex Winter Directed By: Stephen Herek Running Time: 90 Min.

Like, radical, dude--but not nearly as funny as it should be, even though it was a box-office hit. Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are a pair of dim Valley boys, whose life is made heinous by a school history project. Enter George Carlin as a futuristic dude with a time-traveling phone booth. So Bill and Ted go back in time to round up a gang of historical figures (Socrates, Joan of Arc) to bring back for their presentation. Abe Lincoln at the mall? That's about as witty as it gets, rendering this the kind of comedy that gives teenaged audiences a bad name. --Marshall Fine

Thanks so much!
I know this is from the user I ordered it from, but I got Popcorn with the movie. Thanks so much, five stars, A+++. Will order from again.
Bill and Ted
Bill and Ted, how do I love thee, let me count the ways.
1. You radically traveled through time in an amusing way that taught many a stoner about history.
2. You show us mid-westerners the love that is Circle K.
3. Every time a fan walks by a phone booth they try to dial their way to a different time.
4. Your philosophy is the future of human civilization.
Bill and Ted's Excellent adventure was a movie that epitomizes the 80's. It was another movie that again I didn't manage to see in the theaters, but saw it on VHS the first time when it was still a new release. It's a fun romp that fits in the traditional stoner comedy vein, yet ironically doesn't show them doing any drugs. It seems they are just burn-outs. The plot line is they have to pass a history exam otherwise Ted (Keanu Reeves) has to go off to the military academy. In order to save the human race and keep them excellent, time travelers from the future come back and leave the boys a time machine to work on their history project. Hilarity then ensues.
Be excellent to one another.
Excellent!
We bought this for my son, to show him what Keanu looked like in the 'olden' days. Cute movie.
