” is only the second Beavis and Butt-Head movie — after “Beavis and Butt-Head Do America,” which came out in 1996. That’s a long time to put a franchise about the world’s dumbest, horniest, and most meta teenage metal-heads on hold. But I’m not sure that the world was clamoring for another Beavis and Butt-Head movie, and this one isn’t exactly the “Top Gun: Maverick” of B & B-Head sequels. It is, however, a shaggy, snark-infused lark that’s likable enough to get by.
“Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe” is a time-tripping sci-fi burlesque that features the Space Shuttle Endeavour and wormholes and a multiverse. But for all the tongue-in-butt-cheek quantum gamesmanship on display, it’s really a time machine of nostalgia, one that finds Beavis and Butt-Head very much their old familiar blitzed and big-haired metal-T-shirted selves, still unable to see what’s right in front of them after all these years.
They, however, are convinced that she wants them to “score” with her; that’s the only thing on their awesomely primitive one-track minds. They couldn’t care less about the wonders of space, the awesome Shuttle telescope , or the fact that when the ship’s delicate rendezvous with the space station Mir destroys everything in sight, they’re told by mission control that there’s only enough oxygen left for five of the seven crew members.
With our heroes thrust 25 years into the future, “Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe” turns into a butt-head-out-of-water picaresque. Our heroes get hooked up with a cell phone, which they at first think is a bad tiny TV set, until they learn that it can pay for anything. They take it on a shopping bender, though the only thing they’re interested in buying is nachos.
Good cartoon characters tend to be ageless, and “Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe” is just clever enough not to feel like an anachronism. The duo’s creator and forever naughty guiding light,, flows the characters into the present day without a hitch in style or a stitch in time. Without ever quite saying it, he’s making them the butt of a joke-fantasy for the superhero age.
