Description

Medfield College science major Dexter Riley (Kurt Russell) and his classmates have been working on a new vitamin compound when a lab accident creates a supercharged mix that ends up in Dexter's cereal box! After breakfast the next morning, Dexter is transformed, possessing a superhuman strength that levels lampposts and destroys doorknobs. The powerful formula comes to the attention of the college dean and two rival cereal companies, touching off a hilarious chain of events. Ultimate control of the moneymaking formula rides on a weight lifting match between the pitifully small Medfield team and the superior State challengers. It's a mixture of fun, comedy, and adventure that will have everyone exploding with laughter!

    So, this movie has been on iTunes for how many years (?) and now it’s only for rent? Is this another piss-poor marketing-&-salesmanship tactic from iTunes?
  • Classic!

    I used to LOVE this movie when I was a kid. I miss the days when I used to sit on the living room floor and watch the Disney family classics. You can buy this movie, SD, which is fine.

    Movie is fantastic; either Disney's or iTune's decision to make this and similar movies only for rent is moronic.

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, that was because I love the Dexter Riley movies. I have ALL of them. The movies are The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (my favorite), Now You See Him Now You Don't (NOT on Disney Channel), and this one. I love the actors, expecially who plays Dean Higgins. He's HILARIOUS!!! I love everything about this movie just about. The actors/actresses, the formula, the characters, the cow (yes, there was a cow), and the strength formula being so important in the movie. You'll see what I mean. I LOVE THIS MOVIE! This is one of those good Disney movies. It's not really from 2004. It's from 1975 I think. From my point of view, the old Disney movies are awesome! Please get this movie! P.S. This movie is good for the whole family! I'm a tween/teen and I love it!!!
  • Disney great fun!

    Enjoy these old Disney flicks witht the family. They're fun and a little wacky, but good. I especially like this Kurt Russell one. Can't go wrong here. Really wish this were available for purchase, not rent!!
