Critics Consensus

An oddball comedy that revels in its silliness and memorable catch phrases, Wayne's World is also fondly regarded because of its endearing characters.

The film still has its priceless moments, however, the best of which comes from Wayne and his pals driving around town while singing along to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.

Lots of tasteless jokes, and no need to pay attention -- if you miss a punch line, don't worry. It will be back again in 10 minutes or so.

4/5

Wayne's World is a sociological dissertation on the post-adolescent, pre-existential, psychodynamic polemics of popular culture. Not. Wayne's World is a ton of fun for people who are younger than 30 or who think they are.

3/4

successfully expands the world created by the SNL skits, following the logic of the characters, but taking them out of the basement and giving them more depth and nuance without losing the traits that fans already loved

Wayne's World is still hilarious after all these years, with quotable lines, natural 4th-wall breaks and smart mixing of a simple story with opportunities to just let its cast let loose! Just one or two gags didn't age well.

Revisiting this classic from my childhood. Many might remember getting the VHS from McDonalds and having it on repeat cause you didn't have many other tapes haha. I really went into this believing it would be nostalgia bait and not much else. My impression leaving was this has a lot more to offer than I thought. Really sweet and funny in ways I did not remember. Earns it's status as a classic, Myers's best role maybe? besides "So I married an axe murderer".

It was really strange and a lot of the jokes weren't funny, but I watched it out of curiosity, and I don't regret watching it. Seeing the Painkiller poster in Garth's room gave me hope.
