Late sequels to both iconic films from the past few decades have been all the rage in Hollywood for the past few years, and Bill & Ted Save the Universe falls into this category. After all, this is a sequel to the cult comedies “Bill & Ted’s Crazy Journey Through Time” (1989) and “Bill & Ted’s Crazy Journey Into the Future” (1991).
However, the new “Bill & Ted” was denied great success, which is due on the one hand to the niche status of the series, but on the other hand it was also due to the corona pandemic. So if you missed the late sequel in the cinema (only one day in Germany) and/or home cinema, you can now stream the film at no additional cost: Because “Bill & Ted Save the Universe” is available for subscription on Amazon Prime Video:

Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves) are still married to British princesses Joanna (Jayma Mays) and Elizabeth (Erinn Hayes), who once brought them from the 15th century to the present, and have married Thea ( Samara Weaving) and Billie (Brigette Lundy-Paine) each have a daughter who takes after their dad.
But otherwise things aren’t going particularly well for the planned musicians: their success as rock stars has evaporated and they still haven’t managed to write the song that is supposed to save the entire universe. With only a few hours left, Bill and Ted have an idea: travel back in time to steal the finished song from their future selves…
In the course of their journey through time, the two then encounter various incarnations of themselves, including the mega-muscled prison versions on the cover photo above this article. Meanwhile, Thea and Billie travel back in time to assemble the greatest bands of all time – including Mozart (Daniel Dorr) and Jimmy Hendrix (DazMann Still).
In the official DashFUN review, “Bill & Ted save the universe” received 3.5 out of 5 stars and high praise: Part 3 is the best film in the trilogy overallbecause the film is likeable all round, follows on from the predecessors in a completely unironic way and brings the series to a successful conclusion.
DashFUN editor-in-chief Christoph Petersen writes in his conclusion: “A late and likeable sequel! ‘Bill & Ted Face The Music’ may be pure fan service – but the groupies from back then still get their money’s worth even after a break of almost 30 years!”
