Additional InformationWhen 15-year-old science genius Mitch Taylor (Gabe Jarrett) is recruited by the pompous Professor Hathaway (William Atherton) to be part of a special research team, he has no idea he will be working on a top secret military weapon. Enrolling at Pacific Tech College, he meets his fellow whiz kid classmates, including infamous senior Chris Knight (Val Kilmer), whose intelligence and irreverent behavior are legendary; they become roommates, despite their different approaches to life. When Hathaway threatens to expel Chris for bad behavior, the two brains join forces to finish the special laser project before it is too late, in the process unveiling secrets about the project that inspire them to plot an elaborate revenge.
ReviewsLos Angeles Times - ...REAL GENIUS lives up to its title....There are laughs amid serious implications, a high level of inventiveness and a thicket of scientific nomenclature..., Variety - ...[The] performances are a plus with Kilmer energetic and enjoyable to watch and Jarret endearingly sincere...
