Tired of lax justice, two brothers become particularly effective vigilantes against the criminal element in their greater area.
I don’t know what to say about this movie. It’s fantastic. Good characters, a good story and with a good flow to it.
TODO – A two-part comic book story, serving as a companion to the movie sequel, was released in May 2010.

To judge the Earth, aliens grant a single man the power of wishing, but he’s an everyday guy and has no idea how to handle it.
A moderately good movie, with solid comedy throughout it. I only really care about it because of its subject matter and the way it handles it. Strangely, he grants himself wisdom early on but never clues into using it to give him proper understanding of it and how to use it. That’s the major theme of the movie, and the source of its comedy.

Having been caught uncovering government secrets, an eight-year-old goes on the run.
While good, it’s a sort of non-movie. It’s hollow and without real substance or resolution.
Some of it reminds me of Race to Witch Mountain.

A pair of scientists learn they can push electrons back in time and can send emails.
Calm, enthralling, and deeply moving. This movie does all the right things with science fiction and time travel. It keeps the core values of the characters, lets things make just enough sense to have the audience both engaged, confused and planning ahead, and has a romantic streak to it.
Highly recommended!
This movie is entirely in the Dutch language.

A genius-recluse works on artificial intelligence, and brings in a young man to test his most recent success.
I don’t know what it says about me, but I find this movie innocent, beautiful, and deeply disturbing. I honestly don’t think it would be moral of me to recommend this to anyone except as a sort of cautionary tale of the inevitable.
The title is a play on deus ex machina, Latin for “god from the machine”.

Haunted by a criminal hacking change in his youth, a genius highschool student revives those skills when he makes new friends and discovers a nefarious plot from Superman III. (1983).
This movie is comically fun with enough nods to actual stuff to make it laugh-out-loud for its superiors. I don’t know if (or how) I could recommend this to anyone for any reason. It’s dated in every respect, unrealistic and cheesy with no sign if that’s intentional or not.. yet somehow I enjoy it.
I’d say it’s worth watching for anyone born in the late 70s and early 80s who was into tech in their youth. Even then it’s a weak recommendation. For anyone else, pass. Just. Just pass.
PG-13 but has a topless woman sex scene.

The fates of two dumbasses is challenged by an man from their future, bent on bending their future-utopia into his world-domination.
An excellent movie. Though it does suffer from some generation-drift, it suffers far less than its predecessor. It’s not childish, but it is light enough to be “young”. Enjoyable, well-written and recommended. Grab a beer and some popcorn with your buddies and enjoy this at least once.
This movie inspired a one-shot comic book, and then the comic book series Bill & Ted’s Excellent Comic Book.

Two dumbass kids are given a time machine to help with their oral report for history class.
These were simple times, where a movie’s comedy was as light as the effort to make it. A straightforward no-thought movie, perfect for getting drunk and talking funny. Though I recommend it, I fear it is drifting away from its original target ages and may only be good for people old enough to have already seen this.
Continues with Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey – (1991 movie)
