Premise
It's a Beavis and Butt-Head movie!

Loved
The Great Cornholio.

Thoughts
Honestly, I've never seen a complete episode of the popular 1990's series when I was a teen.  So watching this in 2011 was kind of weird.

One effect was my ignorance about the Great Cornholio.  Holy cow, that character was a sight to behold!  Easily the funniest and best part of the movie.  I was amused by observing what appears to be an early incarnation of Hank Hill's character.  The soundtrack was quite dope, especially the rock songs.

Even non-fans like me could recognize the two leads' pattern of speech, which was equally unique and irritating.  Hearing that for half and hour was probably tolerable.  Trying to endure that for 80 minutes was a trial of survival for my sanity.

As expected, Beavis and Butt-Head were in full-out rude, ignorant idiot mode.  I didn't laugh much, but there was an oddly dated charm to the movie.  The shock value had long been obliterated by South Park.  Yet it was almost like a time capsule of what was considered inappropriate.

I'm sure Beavis and Butt-Head Do America was a much bigger deal back in the day, but now it's only worth watching for curiosity sake.  Having said that, my life is now complete now that I've finally experienced the Great Cornholio.

What I would change
No idea.
