Supreme guilty pleasure

goofy and very funny

What the film needs, instead of these familiar teen-movie trappings, is a cleverness and eccentricity to match that of its characters. For the most part, these are qualities that it lacks.

The movie gets stuck as a run-of-the-mill teen revenge comedy.

Real Genius contains many pleasures, but one of the best is its conviction that the American campus contains life as we know it.

What lifts the production above the run-of-the-mill is swift direction by Martha Coolidge, who has a firm grasp over the manic material.

It does make you wonder if the drive of the US education system is ultimately to develop better weapons of mass-destruction, though Coolidge's movie is too hazily good-natured to capitalise on the tougher aspects of the material.

This disappointing teen comedy from director Martha Coolidge is another entry in the rash of teens-goofing-with-science films.

The humor is relentlessly cruel, smug, and disconnected from any sense of how human beings might behave in similar situations.
