Wayne's World (1992)

The vocabulary dates it immediately, but the film knows how to make a joke visible as well as quotable. Its conspicuous sponsorship business and cheerful interference with its own storytelling still give the comedy a lively relationship with the audience. Mike Myers and Dana Carvey also make the friendship worth protecting beneath the mugging. The juvenile sexual humour can be tiresome, yet the inventive delivery is a stronger reason to return than remembering the songs. A sketch adaptation that keeps looking for a new way to play.
