A pretty good comedy that works because of the charisma of Michael J. Fox. Good light entertainment.

Well produced classic eighties stuff, very entertaining comedy with some slapstick thrown in. Recommended!!

A good film, which passes quickly with the antics of Brantley Foster trying not to be discovered by his uncle Howard. Furthermore, it sharply criticizes the bureaucratic confusion, the power of the privileged who believe that we must be like them to be treated equally, the machismo present in companies and the highly restricted market that limits opportunities for the majority of the population, especially within the scope academic. However, an important theme that should receive more attention is the evaluation of good above all else, which was covered superficially in the film.
