But in proving that Beavis and Butt-Head absolutely have a place in the contemporary world, it suggests that there’s a limit to how deeply we probably want to interrogate that place. It’s frequently funny and occasionally savage in its commentary on the changed terrain. That doesn’t mean Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe isn’t funny.

Thanks to the less-than-benign passage of time, Beavis and Butt-Head have gone from confrontational, anti-social spuds raised on heavy metal and the distant promise of sexuality to non-threatening relics. And now he's done it again, proving himself a hero, a light in the darkness who comes through when the world needs to laugh at itself the most.Paramount Owner National Amusements Takes $125M Strategic InvestmentĪlthough the entire purpose of the 86-minute Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe is to situate the characters in a modern context, maybe you’ll be able to watch the new movie without dwelling, in the thankfully-rare slow moments, on how the actual Beavises and Butt-Heads of 2022 would behave - where they’d congregate and what outlets they would find for their disaffection.

While the days of introducing the youth of America to heavy metal legends, such as White Zombie and Alice in Chains have long passed, this fresh take on these two legendary heathens in the modern universe doesn't disappoint die hard fans who recall their first glimpse of Beavis and Butthead from 'The Liquid Television' days. Mike Judge manages to awaken the sleeping deviant inside fans of the original series in this updated version of the 90s classic that inspired (or uninspired) the MTV generation.
