Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
With 'The Breakfast Club' and 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' as two pretty good
John Hughes-movies this one is a little disappointing. Two boys, Gary and
Wyatt (Anthony Michael Hall and Ilan Mitchell Smith), create a woman on
their computer and in movies it is not strange that the woman becomes a real
person. Her name is Lisa (Kelly LeBrock) and she is supposed to be the most
beautiful woman in the world. Since Gary and Wyatt are such nerds they need
a woman like that to become popular.
The movie has it funny moments but the boys are those nerds with a reason.
They were annoying in almost every scene in the movie. Luckily for us there
some other character that are interesting. Wyatt's brother Chet is played by
Bill Paxton in a great evil way and one of the villains in the movie is
played by Robert Downey Jr.
I liked the first twenty minutes and after that sometimes it was
entertaining, but a movie should not be annoying and therefor the movie was
not good. May be you like it, it is not impossible with a movie like this.
