IMDb users give Smart People 6.5 out of 10 stars. I’ll bet they were ambivalent over The Absent-Minded Professor too. What do they know, anyway? I loved it, but maybe that’s because if I were a lot smarter and a touch more saturnine, I’d be Lawrence Wetherhold. If it weren’t for women, I suspect we’d all be somewhere in a Wetherhold-Toxic Avenger continuum.
(I just checked IMDb’s page on Professor. Yep. 6.6 out of 10. Pedestrians.)
