Siskoid commented on this movie 4 weeks agoI'm not sure one needs to watch Disney's Dexter Riley movies in any particular order, because the first of these, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, still kind of drops you into the middle of things as if this were a college comedy series you'd been following for a while. There's perhaps more of a sense of introduction for the characters, but a matter-of-fact one. Perhaps Disney felt the audience had already been introduced to Medfield College and its wacky science in Absent Minded Professor and Flubber years before. In any case, this is the one where academically-inept Dexter Riley gets a computer brain in a lab accident, becomes the captain of the college trivia team, and runs afoul of a greedy criminal played by Cesar Romero, recently off Batman. The science is goofy, the dean of the college is a stock comic foil, and the plot finds opportunities for slapstick where it can. In other words, it's your typical 1960s comedy. But Kurt Russell, Cesar Romero, and the debut of an uncredited Ed Bagley Jr.
