Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey on 4K UHD offers a significant visual upgrade over the Blu-ray, with a new 4K scan of the original camera negative. The HEVC H.265 encode provides sharper details, natural grain, richer colors, and improved contrast, while Dolby Vision enhances dynamic whites and deep blacks, delivering a well-rounded presentation.

Audio: 76

The 5.1 DTS-HD MA mix delivers crisp dialogue and defined instrumentation but has some balance issues, with sound effects occasionally overpowering vocals. The 2.0 stereo mix, however, offers superior clarity and distinction, with excellent imaging, warm acoustical fidelity, and well-prioritized vocals.

Extra: 76

Shout! Factory's 4K UHD Blu-ray of 'Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey' impressively compiles previous supplements, including two audio commentaries, an extensive making-of doc, vintage featurettes, and technical interviews, enriched by behind-the-scenes footage and retrospective insights from the cast and crew.

Movie: 71

While 'Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey' deviates wildly from its predecessor, delivering a darker, more surreal adventure through Heaven and Hell, the 4K Ultra HD release by Shout! Factory provides a superb visual and auditory experience with its two-disc combo pack. The movie’s exhilarating originality outweighs its occasional narrative rough spots.
