Watch Genius For Free

The Worst Film Ever

Captivating movie !

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I watched Genius , reliving my memories! Trevor Morgan was perfect for the role of Charlie. He had looks, charm, personality, wit and ha stealth at times just being so darn sneaky :) But then you have his Genius side, his most perfect side, like it was made for him. I was so inspired by the movie that I instantly started looking up "Swiss" from 1997 of splitting the photon, and also "Eureka" and seeing if that was tied with Archimedes where The Doc explained where you could be not able to solve something, take your mind off it, than BAMB! Eureka! It hits you. So I wanted to see if those facts were true, also the part with defying gravity like they did with microchips of some kind...where one does the others would be force to do. I know it's Disney and its a movie, but often times if they do their research, I'd like to think they got the science right. It's like Ice Princess when Casey was doing Physics...I heard she got most of the calculation wrong..if so, what part did they miss..it's a tricky subject, but I'd like to know more, and this movie and Ice Princess has opened my eyes to further exploration. Perfect movie and a joy to watch...by the way...Claire's skating is magnificent lol.

The reason why I got to watch this movie had Emmy Rossum in this and the story had kinda a inspirited "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" feeling to it, except the kid didn't use potion this time to look handsome! This Disney film really would excite kids in watching this because it is rather a good entertainment for all ages and they would seriously get glued into it!It was great to see Emmy Rossum as a teenager, she really looks gorgeous as usual, no wonder Trevor Morgan's character fell head over heels for her. Although I am kinda disappointed that it was a quick kiss and not a romantic kind one! Maybe they thought cooties were still the issue so they just be quick about it and get it over with haha!This movie isn't the best but its definitely not one of the worst! I give this film 8/10!

This film has been made dozens of times in other forms. This "Disney Original" idea is a complete laugh - if this is considered original, then I'm Abraham Lincoln. And I can't be Abraham Lincoln because I believe he is dead.Trevor Morgan (you may remember him as the annoying kid from "Jurassic Park III") plays a complete nerd and mathematical genius who basically lives underneath a school ice hockey stadium. It is there that he constructs magical potions using science and math.However he realizes he's not exactly catching any ladies, so he adopts the persona of "Chaz" (his real name is Charlie) to woo the ladies - enrolling in school again and becoming a "bad boy" who talks back to teachers and looks "cool." News flash: Kids stopped wearing Fonzie-style leather jackets to school in the 1960s. If anything, it's retro. It doesn't make you look cool. You don't gain instant respect by showing up at school with a leather jacket, a comb and a smirk and talking back to teachers. Today, in the age of gangsta rappas and emo, you would be laughed at and ridiculed. "Chaz" would become an instant outcast and his plan would backfire.But in "Genius" all the kids are friendly white suburbanite offspring and they love The Chaz. They fall victim to his evil ploy to get some girly-action and even the bad boys at school respect him.It would be kind of funny if it weren't so sad to actually think some Disney TV executive greenlit this and thought the concept of a 12-year-old high school graduate living in an underground lab who adapts a new persona of a leather-jacket wearing freak would be successful.

Must say it was a fab flick. Trevor Morgan was as steady as ever, combining technique and timing for a flawless performance. Other notables include Yannick Trembley as the strong chinned captain and Darryl Pring as the slightly overpowering but energy filled Bear Berczinski...what a handsome fella...
