The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes [VHS]
He's Dexter Riley (Kurt Russell), just a regular-guy college student at  Medfield College--until one fateful night he is accidentally transformed  into a human computer. His newfound genius makes him an overnight  sensation when he gets all the answers right on a  college quiz show. This instant celebrity status also brings an instant massive  ego, which threatens his friendships as well as his safety. Caught  up between battling college deans (Joe Flynn and Alan Hewitt) and a dangerous  mobster (Cesar Romero), Dexter soon learns friends are more valuable than  money.  This movie, released in 1970, is a true romp with silly situations and madcap misadventures. The size of the computer itself is now good for a sight gag. It's likable but goofy, with  no real weight. A fun, innocent diversion that the whole family can look and laugh at, each for different reasons. Did people really dress like that?--Peggy Maltby-Etra
