Dude, They're No Bill & Ted......But Still
Ok, if you like movies that star two dimwitted guys involving a very crazy story and plot, then "Dude, Where's My Car" is the kind of movie for you. The film goes one step beyond and then some. Aston Kutcher plays Jesse, a character who's a bit smarter than the character of "Kelso" that Aston portrays on "That 70's Show". I'm a "That 70's Show" fan, which is one of the reasons why I bought this movie. Anyway, Jesse & Chester (Seann William Scott) wake up, completely forgetting what they did the night before ("How wasted were we?") and discovering some very strange things, such as a refrigerator full of Pudding Cups, and of course, the fact that Jesse's car is missing. The most fun you'll have with this movie is your first time viewing, since you know as much as they do as far as what the heck is going on! The film has its moments, including Jesse arguing with a Chinese drivethru intercom. ("NO AND THEN!!!!") The Shibby smoking dog was a touch much for me, but the one scene I cringe at the most is when Jesse & Chester make out with one another just so they can impress....get this...FABIO! Not the best moment of the movie. But it is full of zany characters. The most sexist name in the film has got to be "Christie Boner". She's the one who tells Jesse she saw his car..."from the backseat". These guys do have girlfriends, Wendy and Wilma (The Twins), who honestly, they don't deserve. ("You are such sucky boyfriends".) Why don't they deserve them? Well the night before they trashed the twins house and after the girls cleaned it all up they ruined it again, although unintentioanlly. I don't want to give too much away in case readers of this review have never seen the movie, as to not ruin it for them. It is pretty crazy. Guys will love what one woman does with Aston's popsicle. The movie reminds me of "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure", only not as funny. That doesn't mean you won't have a good time though. And I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it because I did. Judge for yourself. It truly is one wild ride. SWEET! DUDE!The DVD Extras are OK. Some extended scenes show you a little more and I think they were right to take them out. Probably the best feature is the audio commentary with director Danny Leiner and Aston & Seann, but the featurette is nice too. "SHIBBY!"
