Loved the first one, hated the second. Face the Music is inbetween, but probably closer to the second. Ending sucked.
Was really looking forward to this. Re-watched the first two before watching Face the Music. Maybe sitting through Bogus again killed the mood. [Reply]

Did you see the post-credit scene?
I thought that FTM made Bogus Journey a better film. FTM was kind of a mashup of the first two films until the Third Act, which was pretty damn fun.
It could have used a bit tighter editing and more screen time with Bill, Ted and their daughters but it was entertaining and I’m sure I’ll watch it again and again. [Reply]

No I didn't. I'll have to go back and look.
There seemed to be potential in the first half of the movie, with some fun and some boring parts. For me though, it just started to get bogged down halfway though, and then the ending was just very disappointing for me. [Reply]

I watched it again last night. The first time I watched it, the movie seemed slooooooow but it went by so much more quickly upon the second viewing. I laughed out loud hard during some of the moments because they were so ridiculous.
This is probably one of those movies, at least for me, that I'll enjoy more and more upon repeated viewings. I enjoyed it so much that I can overlook:
Spoiler!
The fact that while Hendrix was a phenomenal guitarist, songwriter and singer, there's not a chance in hell that he could play Mozart pieces note-for-note and shred like he did in the movie.
Personally, I think it would have been made more sense, considering the era in which the previous movies had been set, had they gone back and grabbed EVH from 1977, as he grew up playing classical music on piano and can play that style effortlessly on guitar, but that's a very minor quibble
