BILL & TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE

 "An insanely effective no-brainer of a film, sparkling with a simple charm and energy rarely witnessed this side of illegal substances."- Ian Nathan, Empire

"The film itself is something of a time machine now, transporting viewers back to the shopping malls, water parks, hair metal, and the general frivolity of the '80s. But from the moment George Carlin appears in the opening scene, introducing the audience to the wonderful world of tomorrow, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure mostly just comes across as pure, goofy fantasy: an enjoyable space for anyone to inhabit." - Noel Murray, AV Club

Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are high school buddies starting a band. However, they are about to fail their history class, which means Ted would be sent to military school. They receive help from Rufus (George Carlin), a traveler from a future where their band is the foundation for a perfect society. With the use of Rufus' time machine, Bill and Ted travel to various points in history, returning with important figures to help them complete their final history presentation.
