Sex-driven absurdist comedy lives up to the first half of its name

Weird Science is, hence its title, incredibly strange. While often funny, it exemplifies questionable morals and objectifies women. Euphemisms for sex and masturbation ("whacking off," "butter your muffin") are common, and there's plenty of suggestive dialogue. Scenes depict partial nudity. Sexual desire is the basis for most of the movie's plot; some content may be uncomfortable for younger viewers. On top of that there's swearing--"s--t," "d--k," "bimbo," "wanker," and hom*ophobic slurs ("f----t"). Despite its iffy content, it should be alright for mature tweens and teens.

Great movie

I just watched Weird Science and it was so totally awesome! The movie is about two nerdy high school boys who create the perfect woman on their computer. The girl they create, Lisa, is played by Kelly LeBrock and she is like the coolest girl ever. She's smart, funny, and totally gorgeous. The boys take her on all sorts of wild adventures, and it's so cool to see them come out of their shells and become more confident.The movie is also really funny. There are so many hilarious scenes that had me laughing out loud. And the soundtrack is awesome too. It's full of 80s music that will totally make you want to dance.Overall, I think Weird Science is the best movie ever. It's funny, it's romantic, and it's just so much fun to watch. If you're looking for a movie to watch with your friends, then you have to check this one out. I

Good for older teens

I have teen girls and loved this movie in my childhood- upon rewatching as a parent it is not what you want an early teen to watch. My girls didn’t see it - me only

Brilliant if you are 15 definatly not a 12 ..... As it is rated

Brilliant film but do not be fooled by the 12 rating ... It is a 15 at least , there are copious uses of the words s#it , d#ck and ar##hole as well as references to tossing off , there is no real nudity and no sex but at one point the two male leads are asked if they will ' share' the lead female . There are also references to drug taking and bondage such as being nvited to a party with ' whips , drugs , sex, chains '!!!! There are a lot of the uses of the word bi#chto denote a female as well as a use of the word fa##ot...I love this film but it's definatly not a 12 it is a 15

This title has:

  • Too much violence
