    I nearly pissed myself laughing at this in the cinema and only a very few films have managed that! I guess that says a lot about my childish humour!

    Muddy Grimmes: You got any last words before I kill ya?
    Butt-head: I got a couple - buttcheeks.
    Beavis: Yeah - and boobs. I just wanna say that again... Boobs.
    Muddy Grimmes: I'm gonna blow ya both to hell,that's what I'm goin' to do!
    Butt-head: Cool.

    I never got to watch much ...( read more)Beavis and Butt-Head when I was younger, but when this movie came out, my dad and I, who were both inexperienced with the activities of these two, saw the movie and laughed hysterically. It takes these two idiot slacker kids and throws them into the middle of a crazy thriller plot involving a deadly disease, FBI, and criminal masterminds.

    Agent Fleming: Agent Hurley, I want you to give this scumbag a cavity search! I'm talking Roto-Rooter! Don't stop until you reach the back of his teeth!

    When the one thing Beavis and Butthead love so much, TV, is taken from them, they set out to find it, and stumble onto the thriller plot mentioned above, prompting a country-wide search for these kids. Hilarity ensues.

    Creator Mike Jude goes from TV to the big screen with these characters, and certainly gives them an epic send out, taking them all over the country, accompanied by a kick as rock soundtrack, a sweet 70s style opening, and the use of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore to make the film even more classy.

    This is a very funny movie, and very well done in terms of taking it from the small to the big screen.

    Beavis: Dammit! This always happens! I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score! It's not fair! We traveled um, a mil-... a hundred miles, just because we thought we were gonna score! But now it's not gonna happen! Dammit!
    Bus Driver: Hey, buddy! Sit down!
    Beavis: Shut up, ass-wipe! I'm sick and tured of this! We're never gonna score! We're probably gonna get old like these people, but they've probably scored!
    Bus Driver: Hey! I'm warning you! Sit down!
    Beavis: [motioning to Martha] It's like this chick's a slut... and look at this guy! He's old, but he's probably scored a million times...!
    Old Guy: [nodding] Oh, yeah.
    Beavis: But not us! We're never gonna score! We're never gonna score! We're never gonna score!

    "beavis and butt-head do america" might be one of the most iconic movies which represent the 90s iconclast slacker subculture among the youth of generation x who celebrates the brazen apathy on addictive distractions on riotic rock music and prefering things that are "cool"...
    ...( read more)
    it parodies on pop cultures, such as the outset sequence of king-kong and "starsky & hutch"...it also mocks americanism by degrading its patriotic enthusiast (the vetern southerer whose van they're "whacking" at...ha.) into the lethal terrorist while he's paying respect to lincoln's portrait in white house, same as the caricature of fbi lead who demands "full capital search" upon every possible national-threat suspect, and the policeowman who helps to perform that with her plastic glove. lol. a comical contempt to the pseudo maccathyism fanatic. it sneers at education, government institution and nationalism, and it dismisses the 60s misanthropic student activities by its comment on the teacher of beavis and butthead as "what a dork" while he's lecturing on the spirituality they might regain by the void of tv. then the teacher gets arrested and assaulted by fbi while he's playing guitar and singing "lesbian seagull"..ha. that means you 60s idealists or 70s ecologist hippies, your government disregards you despite whatever activist passion you might have.

    the odyssey of beavis and butthead is just a tv-quest which threads their whole life which is being lazy on the couch, humming a bunch of rock tunes, pretending they could play rock instruments, fancying how they could "score" some chics, shamelessly cheering for their never-do-well life philosophy if they have any brain to think of it as philosophy. it unrelentingly panders the audience's pleasure on adolescent indulgement which is criticizing everything without self-reflection even themselves are the worst degenerates.

    btw, it also introduces the tales of how beavis and butthead's birth: two former mutley crue roadie geeks whack up to semen donation while daydreaming they seperately score two "slots". ha.

Those who deplore Beavis and Butt-Head are confusing the messengers with the message. full review

    The concept of Beavis and Butt-Head is so billiant. If you take it at face value, of course it comes off as stupid. But, when you take a good, long, hard look at it, some excellent social commentary is there.
