Siskel and Ebert once ran a special show entitled "Movies I'm Embarrassed to Admit I Liked." I suppose that if I composed such a list of guilty pleasures, this one would be one of them . . . but upon reflection, it's really a lot better than that. Fifteen year-old science prodigy Mitch (Gabe Jarret) is recruited by ambitious college professor William Atherton (in yet another of his patented roles as a loathsome character) to work on the professor's prize laser project, not knowing that the prof is really developing a government weapon. Along the way, Mitch is befriended by Chris (Val Kilmer), another prodigy a few years his senior who teaches the Mitch how to loosen up.
This could have degenerated into nothing more than just another teen revenge comedy, but there's so much more: the dialogue is laced with sharp wit; there are some lovely scenes that have nothing to do with the story yet are carefully set up, almost as blackouts (e.g., Mitch goes to a lecture at which a few students have left tape recorders instead of attending; later, at another lecture there are more tape recorders than students; and, in a final scene, one large tape recorder gives the lecture to a room populated by nothing but other small recorders!); and throw-away scenes that make you want to stop and back up the tape (e.g., Chris off-handedly cutting a slice off a bar of solid nitrogen to make a slug for the coffee machine).
It's also one of the few movies to boast the presence of the memorable Michelle Meyerink -- as Jordan, the "girl-nerd" who made being smart and female something to be emulated. And there's Tears for Fears great song, "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" providing the perfect coda as the closing credits begin to roll . . . . Yes: really now, what's there to be embarrassed about?
名字很吸引人…养老保险，退休八仟一万…我说：活在当下，不可预知的未来，可能是竹篮打水一场空哦！😂
看完直接焦虑了…バイト真就是干活一辈子到最后还死不起了，甚至女主角的日常生活相对来说已经很体面了……
看天海佑希为了钱而发愁还是第一回，把葬礼和家庭纠纷以一种轻松诙谐的方式呈现，还是能从中得到一些启示。
前面的搞笑比较刻意。还好后面的温情part升华了一下，还是比较温馨的家庭片。
妈的……我葱出生到现在，只有四年没金钱压力
过好平淡的每一天，起伏中也便有了转机
本来还以为会有点沉重的，没想到笑到肚子痛，不知道时隔多久地在电影院笑出声了www真的放轻松点才能活得开心
配合霓虹延迟退休看绝了。
前面太苦啦。结尾很温暖。给了一个新的老年生活的思路。奶奶最后的一首歌，差点泪奔
前半截5星，中间三星，最后0星，平均下来三星很靠谱吧？
生前葬礼很暖心，女主买到心仪的包包后自信阳光焕然一新的样子真美。
惨事都很真实...好事都很虚幻...东方大魔王真的独立女性典范...完全没有娇妻感...即使围着围裙煮饭仍然像个合伙人
前面很好 苦中作乐的感觉 后面急转直下 有点春晚小品最后必须吃饺子的感觉
看看别人家的propaganda怎么做的..."但凡你们宣传部门用点心,还怕社保和养老金亏空?"...
可惜最后更像个生前葬和合租屋的大型cm，女王本人怕不是心里对这种操作嗤之以鼻
为了两位主演升了半颗星，简直就是政治任务宣传片，以及大型广告片了。前半部分各种制造矛盾，最后设定的合家欢结局，因为演职人员的在线演技让人差点就相信了，不过最后住到合租房这个假象，暴露了缓解现实焦虑的目的。
看完觉得自己要好好存钱了。share house模式并不让人感冒
唬人的片名实则喜剧电影；女儿的对象真是惊艳四射好在心不坏；老母亲气质出众演技佳值得最佳配角，逃过了电话诈骗逃不过假警察，说是养老问题的电影却学到了防诈骗的知识，奇怪；“人啊，还是要活得任性一些”
广告片，合租都能美化，看看年纪大了还有人租房给你吗？
无法欣赏的慢节奏叙事和喜剧元素，令人窒息的一系列突发事件带来的家庭经济崩溃，身边糟糕的人际关系，和后期各问题的一件件迎刃而解与人际关系拉近一样莫名其妙，合租的结局也过于强行HE，太理想化了
