Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Beavis and Butt-Head Do America (1996): Dir: Mike Judge / Voices: Mike Judge, Demi Moore, Bruce Willis, Robert Stack, Cloris Leachman: M.T.V. feature about a couple of delinquents that pervert and devalue anything they can influence. Lame plot has them searching for their stolen T.V. and being mistaken for thugs. A criminal named Muddy sends them on a mission to kill his wife although they interpret it as a request to have sex with her. Amusing events lead to them as America's most wanted. Dreadful animation where the moronic young heroes snicker as a donkey relieves itself. Women are referred to as sluts and Beavis is caught masturbating in a camper owned by an elderly couple whose generation Beavis and Butt-Head wouldn't understand. Director Mike Judge does many of the voices including our simple minded schoolboys. Bruce Willis voices the ruthless Muddy while Demi Moore voices his seductive wife. Robert Stack is in self parody voicing a foul mouth police chief conducting the investigation that leads to the juvenile boys. Cloris Leachman voices an elderly woman whom the boys can never understand and only succeed in a vulgar translation. One could argue the case of stereotypical teenagers of the M-TV nature and the generation they promise to come. What really persists is its vulgar nature finding humour in the obscene, which again, spotlights a new generation. Score: 6 / 10

An "Elongated" Episode of the Terminally and Totally Dumb Teenagers makes it Clear that the Duo's Disgusting Double Entendres can Withstand the "Blow" Up and give Their Fans Ninety Minutes of Off the Couch Fun.The Music here is Part of the Story, not Music Videos that Either Suck or Don't Suck, so that Familiar Element from the TV Show is Abandon for Tourist Attractions and Road Trip Shenanigans.There is a Strong Plot about a Missing "Biological" Weapon as the Two are sent on a Wild "Goose" Chase and to "Score" with a Big Boobed Babe. Obviously, it is Not a Spoiler to say that will Never Happen, so B&B "Do" America while Attempting that most Elusive of Pubescent Pursuits.This is Visually quite Impressive with a Rob Zombie Montage Standing Out above it all as Beavis "Munches" on Peyote to keep from Dying of Thirst. The Opening is also Impressive with a Giant Monster and the Charlie's Angels/Starsky and Hutch Credits.Overall, if You Like the Boys You'll Like the Movie.

Scoring with chicks obsesses Beavis and Butthead in director Mike Judge's first feature-length animated opus "Beavis & Butthead Do America," a rude but occasionally clever, cartoon farce that ridicules those two trendy, booger picking, adolescent slackers. Although I've seen my share of their television shenanigans, I haven't kept abreast of their obnoxious antics the way some of my friends have, so I tagged along with two Beavis and Butthead connoisseurs. My B & B fans felt "Beavis & Butthead Do America" was the equivalent of a greatest hits album of their clowning around on the tube. Aside from a surprise or two, Beavis and Butthead are just as nauseating on the big screen as they are on the small one. They did feel that "Do America" was a great way to introduce these reptilian life-forms to silver screen spectators. "Beavis & Butthead Do America" opens with two amusing sequences. The first spoofs "King Kong" with giant-sized versions of our lame-brained protagonists stomping helter-skelter though a miniature city while tanks and helicopters blast away at them. The sketchy animation looks pretty good on the big screen, too. In the second sequence, Isaac Hayes provides the lyrics to the hilarious title sequence that sends up the old ABC-TV undercover, law & order series "Starsky and Hutch," with our characters dresses up as the two heroic cops. Neither sequence has much to do with the other or the story in general, but the sequences are fun, and the film lurches off to a colorful start with them.The screenplay by "Beavis & Butthead" creator Mike Judge follows our protagonists across the United States. Thieves have stolen Beavis & Butthead's television set, and the kids set out to find them. Instead, they meet a thug called Muddy (voice of Bruce Willis) who promises them a small fortune if they will kill his wife. Of course, when our sex-starved idiots agree to "do" his wife, they make the mistake of thinking that Muddy means for them to engage in sexual relations with her. Ironically, the two thieves who pinched Beavis & Butthead's TV were supposed to carry out the hit for Muddy.Once this mistaken-identity plot gets underway, Federal Agents with the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms appear like storm troopers for justice. They pursue Beavis and Butthead on a cross-country chase because they believe that the guys are terrorists with a horrible biological bomb. In an inspired bit of voice casting, "Untouchables" star Robert Stack provides the voice for their fascist nemesis. He resolves to capture the guys, and he forces anybody whose had contact with them to submit to deep cavity searches. Stack's voice is perfect because he plays the part with such deadpan sobriety. Other cute bits include Butthead's visit to the White House where he hits on Chelsea Clinton. Chelsea dumps him unceremoniously out the window in an act of defenestration. Later, the boys visit with President Clinton. He makes them honorary ATF agents. Another funny scene has Beavis and Butthead dismissing the geyser "Old Faithful" because they call it boring, only to be dazzled by urinals in a nearby toilet that flush when a light sensor is activated. Probably the only surprise in the entire comic film is their trek through the desert where they meet two scumbag bikers who turn out to be none other than their fathers. Undeniably, just as Beavis and Butthead is an acquired taste, so is this very crude comedy. The boys have changed little since their tube days. Beavis picks his nose constantly and repeatedly sings his bunghole song. The boys resemble the Trix rabbit in the cereal commercial because they never get what they want. The only characters from the TV series that drop in for appearances are Mr. Anderson, their hippie teacher, and their school principal. You won't see Mr. Buzzcut, Daria, or Stewart.If you enjoyed Beavis & Butthead on MTV, "Beavis & Butthead Do America" should make you chuckle often throughout its brisk 81-minute running time. If numbers are anything to go by, the $50 million plus that "Beavis & Butthead Do America" has grossed (pun intended!) at the box office thus far should guarantee a sequel.

Beavis and Butthead was one of the many points in my childhood where I knew, I was unlike anybody else. I was entertained beyond belief by these two dimwits who knew nothing in the world outside of their couch and their television. Seeing this movie young, most likely around ten, I honestly didn't like it. I found it to be "boring" and I hated how Beavis and Butthead left the town of Highland and ventured out into the big world.I watched it a year later and went on to like it. This is my third viewing. Now I can fully appreciate it. I understood all the jokes, but at the same time I wished the film took place in the town of Highland, I realize that the creators and the director, respectively, had to create a plot that was very large and made to fit an eighty-five minute run time. Not the usual five to ten minute run time the MTV program was used to.At the time, this movie was the near conclusion to the MTV program that ran for five years. There was rumored to be a sequel for years, and remained in development, but never happened. Fine by me. We got something better. It took fifteen years, but in 2011 it's said that the show will return to MTV with brand new episodes poking fun at music videos and viral videos. I'm skeptical, yet my excitement is through the roof.Beavis and Butthead Do America is about the two adolescents that go in search of their missing television set. Wandering into a motel, they become mistaken by a drunk named Muddy (Willis) as the men he hired to kill his wife. Saying he hired them to "do his wife," the boys believe they are being payed to have sex with Muddy's wife. The boys don't object, but then become labeled the most dangerous men in America by the FBI who are in search of a mysterious chip they call "the unit." The humor isn't as racy as people would expect. It maintains a PG-13 rating, and uses it neutrally. That comes off as one of its flaws, sadly. Like the South Park movie that boasted an R rating with very foul language and sex references, clearly showed what could be on the big screen differs greatly from Comedy Central. With Beavis and Butthead Do America, it does the same thing it would've done if it were a TV movie. Even The Simpson's Movie went a little further than its FOX limits.Still, it's worth it for the pleasure of seeing one of the greatest animated duos on the big screen doing what they do best, nothing. The best thing about the teens is they get in trouble, without even trying to get in trouble. They are a victim of bad timing, but somehow avoid every possible consequence. The FBI agent orders roadblocks, they are in the middle of the desert. They order the Dream America bus to stop, they get on a Nun's bus.My favorite scene is when their "peace'd out" teacher tries to tell them from the bottom of his heart that having no Television actually opens a window of opportunity. He claims people need to realize that we don't need TV to entertain us. After that very near and dear moment, all they pick up is "entert(ain us)." Beavis and Butthead Do America has gotten better with repeated viewings, but is seems it never was "boring." I think being young and dumb, the film didn't sit right with me for the reasons I stated above. After the third time, it was pretty cool.Starring: Mike Judge, Demi Moore, and Bruce Willis. Directed by: Mike Judge.
