Real Genius (1985) Soundboard

Real Genius is a cult classic film released in 1985 that continues to captivate audiences with its charming mix of comedy and science fiction. Directed by Martha Coolidge, the film follows the story of a group of exceptionally intelligent students at a prestigious university as they navigate the challenges of academia, personal growth, and a corrupt professor.

Starring Val Kilmer as the brilliant yet rebellious Chris Knight, Real Genius showcases Kilmer's exceptional comedic timing and charisma. Joined by his roommate, the socially awkward and highly intelligent Mitch Taylor, played by Gabriel Jarret, they form an unlikely friendship and embark on a mission to save their fellow classmates from the nefarious plans of Professor Jerry Hathaway, portrayed by the talented William Atherton.

As the story unfolds, Chris and Mitch find themselves drawn into a top-secret project that involves the development of a high-powered laser. As they dive deeper into their research, they discover that their ingenious invention is being utilized for unethical purposes. Fueled by their witty banter and determination, they team up with their fellow classmates to challenge the corrupt professor and expose his true intentions.

Real Genius is known for its clever dialogue, memorable one-liners, and the remarkable chemistry between the cast members. The ensemble also includes Deborah Foreman as Jordan, the quirky and confident love interest of Chris, and Jon Gries as Lazlo Hollyfeld, a mysterious character living in the basement of their dormitory. With its well-defined characters, the film manages to strike a perfect balance between comedy, science fiction, and social commentary.

Throughout the movie, the audience is treated to a captivating soundtrack that perfectly complements the on-screen action. From catchy '80s pop hits to atmospheric instrumental pieces, the music adds depth and emotion to the story. Featuring artists like Tears for Fears, Wang Chung, and The Lords of the New Church, the soundtrack captures the essence of the era. Whether you want to relive the nostalgia or discover the sounds of the '80s, you can play and download these iconic songs here.

Real Genius remains a beloved film, revered for its intelligent humor, heartwarming storylines, and memorable performances. It continues to entertain and inspire audiences, reminding us that the pursuit of knowledge, friendship, and doing what is morally right are elements that transcend time and genre.
