Wayne's World (1992)
10/10
Classic rock and rollish film
3 July 2023
For those who don't know the movie, it's a 90's comedy starring Mike Myers and it's based on sketches from Saturday's Night Live performed by the main actors themselves.

Wayne's World is about two rockers, Wayne and Gart, somewhat stereotyped but very charming, who have a modest open television program. A television producer (Benjamin) discovers the show and contacts the boys to buy the rights to the show to bring it to a wider audience, to which they agree, but eventually realize Benjamin's intentions.

The film is full of references to rock and heavy metal music, it even features the appearance of the legendary singer Alice Cooper who plays one of his hits in one scene. But in addition to that, it handles in a very intelligent way the conflict that exists between corporations and artists, especially in a matter of integrity. Although the film has in its characters many of the stereotypes of that time about rockers, the truth is that it does so in a distinguished way and is never really bigoted, you can even identify with the characters on more than one occasion. Finally, it is full of absurd humor and surreal situations.

An important detail that I would like to emphasize is that I do not recommend watching the film dubbed, since many of the jokes are not understood by the dubbing (puns for example) and humor is lost a bit. Even so, it is still a very enjoyable film with scenes that are already emblematic of comedy cinema.
