Description

Wayne's World is a 1992 American comedy film directed by Penelope Spheeris and written by Mike Myers, based on his Saturday Night Live sketch of the same name. The film stars Myers in his feature film debut as Wayne Campbell and Dana Carvey as Garth Algar, a pair of rock fans who broadcast a public-access television show. The film also features Rob Lowe, Tia Carrere, Lara Flynn Boyle, Brian Doyle-Murray, Chris Farley, Ed O'Neill, Ione Skye, Meat Loaf, and Alice Cooper. The film was released in the United States on February 14, 1992, by Paramount Pictures.

Wayne's World was a critical and commercial success, grossing $183.1 million worldwide against a budget of only $20 million. It received positive reviews for its humor, performances, and soundtrack, which featured songs from various rock bands. The film's success led to a sequel, Wayne's World 2, in 1993.

The film's popularity also sparked a brief fashion trend of ripped jeans and black Converse sneakers, known as "Wayne's World fashion". The film has since become a cult classic and is often cited as one of the greatest comedy films of all time. The film's theme song, "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, also experienced a resurgence in popularity and became a cultural touchstone.

Comedy & Humor
An amusingly ridiculous black comedy "Seven Psychopaths" is a McDonagh's next masterpiece created in a black comedy genre. It tells the story about an author, Marty who is out of inspiration to finish his novel "Seven Psychopaths". Marty is played by an Irish actor, Collin Farrell who may be known to you by his roles in Minority Report (2002), In Bruges (2008) and Total Recall (2012). His friend Billy tries his best to help Marty to finish writing the book "inspiring" him by getting into the troubles, constantly. Billy is portrayed by Sam Rockwell, who is known to you as Sam Bell from Moon (2009) and Kenneth Waters from Conviction (both are serious roles in the serious films with lots of awards and nominations). Billy is a pure criminal with sadistic attitudes, but he is lovely one. Besides his kind heart, he has a crime-partner Hans. This next psychopath is played by Christopher Walken. This great American actor needs no introduction – you know his awesome roles in Kill the Irishman (2012), Hairspray (2007) and Man of the Year (2006). The next psychopath is Charlie (portrayed by Woodrow Tracy "Woody" Harrelson: No Country for Old Men, The Messenger, Defendor, Zombieland). His beloved dog, a rare Shih Tzu was kidnapped by Billy and Hans, and all the movie's action unfolds in this pivotal point. There we meet Angela, played by the "Bond Girl" Olga Kurylenko, Kaya (Abbie Cornish) and Zachariah (Tom Waits) – the last two of the "Seven Psychopaths".
