Amazon.com:
An underrated little picture, Real Genius offers a rare college comedy that doesn't rely on gross-out humor--and a look at Val Kilmer before he turned into a star. A high school whiz kid (Gabriel Jarret) arrives at a brainy college, where the crème de la crème of the science students are marshaled under an ambitious professor (expert villain William Atherton). Unbeknownst to them, the kids are working on a weapons system that the prof plans on selling to the government. The star student, and chief rabble-rouser, is played by Kilmer, in good early form as a cocky genius who hasn't lost touch with his goofy side. The director is Martha Coolidge, whose Valley Girl was one of the brightest (and most unexpected) of '80s comedies; she keeps the movie perking along and never worries about dumbing down a film that just happens to be about smart people. --Robert Horton

Real Genius was the 1st time I saw Val Kilmer. He is very funny. At a school for genius young people, you see how some of them cope with their skills. Val was once a very serious student & almost went brain dead. Now he copes by being a funny goof-off. I enjoyed the antics & behaviors that are brought out of these real genius's.

The cast is fine in this smart comedy where 15 year old Gabe Jarrett comes to college to participate in a science project, not knowing its director(William Atherton) is using it to develop a secret weapon for the government. This lazer weapon can hit a human target from outer space.
I found some of the sexist humour to be distracting, i.e. one of the science students in the lab tells the other guys, "Let's go, girls!" and at the weapons testing site a female general commands attention from the brass who are running the project. Humour is welcome if it seems to have something to do with what is going on in the scene. Special effects and the hilarious popcorn scene were all worth watching again. Debbie Foreman from "Valley Girl" has a bit part and seems to have been taken off the major studio casting call list when she refused to wear a few less clothes.

Val Kilmer is the ultimate party dude who happens to be a genius. Fun and crazy.

I've only seen Real Genius on cable television, so it was great seeing it in its original screen aspect. The movie is fun, somewhat intelligent, & worth the time to watch. Whether you're a Val Kilmer fan & haven't seen this movie or if you just haven't watched it in a while, this DVD movie is worth the price.
