This movie was terrible! Normally I love 80s movies, especially wacky, zany, or unique ones such as Better Off Dead, One Crazy Summer, and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Real Genius falls into this wacky and zany category, but also falls into the obnoxious and not funny category. In this movie, a 15 year old genius boy with idiot parents gets into college at his young age, decides he can't take living there, decides he can take it after all, then it turns out he was involved in the creation of some super laser that can blast through anything. The plot was stupid and the jokes were all crude and not even funny. The movie was overall weird and had no charm. The genius kid also falls in love with a freak girl who never sleeps. This movie was lame and had crappy music and I regret ever watching it. Do yourself a favor and pick a different 80s comedy such as the ones I mentioned earlier.
