Movie Review: Awesome Sauce
Summary: 5 Stars

Just one of those movies you watched growing up. And then want to buy when your older! Good movie about the early stages of geeks.

Summary of Weird Science

The Frankenstein legend takes an uproarious twist in this outrageous special effects-laden comedy from John Hughes, director of "Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club."
Yes, that is Bill Paxton as Ilan Mitchell-Smith's militaristic big brother. And that's Robert Downey Jr. as one of the in-crowd jerks who makes nerds Mitchell-Smith and Hall's lives miserable. Fortunately, this is a John Hughes comedy and our smart nerds create the perfect woman, Lisa (Kelly LeBrock), using a computer and voodoo. Lisa is a willing sex toy, has magical powers, and just wants to help the boys get even and meet nice babes. She even cleans up. The fantasy ebullience of Hughes is given full rein here and that's good and bad (mostly good). It's all aimed at a certain kind of hormone-addled, 16-year-old sensibility; but who doesn't have a little bit of that in them? --Keith Simanton
