Much funnier than the first film.

Top Critic

This film is sometimes too familiar, especially in early scenes that deliberately repeat the first film's gags. But the formula isn't tired yet.

Top Critic

The secret to the comedy of the Wayne's World movies is their goodwill... and in Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar the series has created two characters it is impossible to dislike.

Top Critic

The sequel to last year's breakaway hit offers more of the same, but it's somehow fresher, funnier and more endearing than the airheaded original.

Top Critic

Carvey is such a lovable doofus and Myers such a well-intentioned naif that it's hard to get down on them, especially considering that the heirs to their niche in pop iconography are Beavis and Butt-head.

became more about an excuse to party. Sure, that fits Wayne Campbell's style, but I was hoping for some more story, even if it was a bit silly

Wayne's World 2 revels in silliness even more than the first movie, but it turns out that's a good thing as compensation for the otherwise repetitive feel. [Blu-ray]

No one was more surprised than I was that not only did this "Saturday Night Live" sketch work as a film, it worked twice, and uproariously both times.

This isn't nearly as funny as its predecessor, but still boasts more decent gags per reel than your average comedy follow-up.

Little more than a string of comic bits.

Not the sensation WWI was, but still fun for Carvey, Myers fans.

Dismal sequel to a thoroughly inessential movie.

Nothing wrong with this sequel. Great jokes (YMCA sequence!) and tons of fun.

• 1. Del Preston: Now. It take two people to run a stage. One out front, and one backstage. Now Garth will be out her in the front with his team, and Wayne will be backstage with his team. To the left and right will be the machine gun nests. Now these babies tend to heat up, so shoot in three second bursts. In the event of capture, I will personally be issuing cyanide pills to be placed under the tongue, as so. [places a cyanide capsule under his tongue] Any questions?
  2. Garth Algar: Uh, yeah, I have a question. When did you turn into a nut bar?

  6. Wayne Campbell: Now correct me if I'm wrong, but your monthly rainfall is about two inches a month, and your annual rainfall is about 22 inches. I did a project on Sweden in the eighth grade. Then, in gym class that day I was on the mini tramp and I got diarrhea.
  7. Bjergen Kjergen: [she gives him a blank look]
  8. Wayne Campbell: I really wish I hadn't told you that!
  9. Bjergen Kjergen: I am sorry to hear of your illness, but since you sacrificed your health for knowledge of my home country, I find you very attractive and hope to make love to you in the near future.
  10. Wayne Campbell: Shmergen!
