The '70s nadir for the Disney Company: the cinematic equivalent of heartburn. An unofficial follow-up to 1972's "Now You See Him, Now You Don't", as well as Disney's 1969 hit "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes", has Kurt Russell returning to role as Dexter Riley, here a college campus nut who discovers a formula which gives him super strength. Cesar Romero walks through the standard bad-guy role as the villain who wants the formula for himself; other veteran character actors such as Eve Arden, Phil Silvers, Harold Gould, and Dick Van Patten mostly just stand around making faces. Completely inane and insipid, with Russell curiously disappearing altogether from the picture's mid-section. The film would be even more offensive were it not for that cast list (Disney certainly gave employment to a lot of actors who were probably happy for the work at the time). Not a good tonic for restless kids. * from ****
