The characters are still endearing, but the jokes in Wayne's World 2 are more hit-and-miss the second time around.

Hilarious. May 18, 2008

Much funnier than the first film. Feb 11, 2006 | Full Review…
Much funnier than the first film.
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. May 20, 2003

There are some worthwhile moments in Wayne's World 2, but not enough to justify a feature-length movie. Jan 1, 2000 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

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. Jan 1, 2000 | Full Review…

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. Jan 1, 2000 | Full Review…

There is something weirdly droll about the further misadventures of two loveable dropouts, Wayne and Garth. Apr 13, 2018 | Full Review…

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 Nov 23, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

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] May 24, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

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. Jun 20, 2008 | Full Review…

This isn't nearly as funny as its predecessor, but still boasts more decent gags per reel than your average comedy follow-up. May 18, 2008 | Full Review…

It didn't live up to the first, this was just stupid and not funny, and it wasn't the cool stupid like the first.
Super Reviewer
One of the best comedy sequels ever made, it follows the first movie exactly, doesn't change any actors, and it is just as funny without reusing all the same jokes. And it's based on the popular SNL sketch. I highly recommend this movie, it's the funniest sequel of the 90s.
It doesn't equal or surpass the first, but this is still a good sequel, and a decent film in general. Surjik isn't quite as good a director as Spheeris, and some scenes go on a bit too long, but overall, this is an okay movie.
Wayne's World 2 is the perfect example of a better sequel. The film is even more enjoyable, and features some awesome cameos. In this one, Wayne decides to put on a concert after he has a dream about Jim Morrison. Funny, comical, and silly, Wayne's World 2 is a terrific sequel. Mike Myers displays a great prose for comedy, and he delivers something great on screen, same goes to Dana Carvey. Both actors delivers laugh out loud performances, and Wayne's World is actually, for a comedy sequel; even better than the first. Well, I've watched this film over 20 times, more times than the first, and I always come back to this sequel because I find that all involved had more confidence and were able to pull something even better the second time around.
