Socially awkward teenagers Gary and Wyatt are desperate to gain popularity and confidence. After being humiliated by bullies and ignored by girls, they use their computer skills to create the perfect woman using a bizarre experiment involving a hacked computer, random data, and a lightning storm. Their creation, Lisa, is a stunning, intelligent, and magical woman who helps them navigate the chaos of adolescence. With her powers, Lisa boosts their confidence, transforms their lives, and teaches them lessons about self-respect, responsibility, and maturity. However, her presence also attracts trouble, from angry bullies to Wyatt’s overbearing brother, Chet. As their wild weekend spirals out of control, Gary and Wyatt learn that true confidence doesn’t come from fantasy or popularity but from believing in themselves. Blending comedy, science fiction, and teen adventure, Weird Science is a lighthearted coming-of-age story about friendship, courage, and the weirdness of growing up.
