Revenge of the Nerds IV: Nerds in Love

Revenge of the Nerds IV (1994) was the final straw in the "nerds" series. Now this movie is too bad for words. It's so bad that it makes part two a joy to behold. I don't know why they even bothered with a fourth film. I highly doubt the third movie was a "huge" ratings winner (remember, this is the FOX network). The gang is back (for the most part) and there's gonna be a wedding.

'nuff said!

Bad movie that doesn't warrant any further discussion. Except that I advise you not to watch it. Unless you love the entire series as a whole (I know that there are several people out there how do). Others need not apply.

D-

Let's hope this will be the last film.

I won't waste a lot of time on this one except to say that this has got to be one of the worst sequels to a good movie I've ever seen, sitting through it was about as fun as having a tooth slowly drilled for 88 minutes. It is completely mindless, unimaginative and without even the slightest bit of humor, it is amazing how an otherwise talented cast can be totally nullified by amateurish writing. Even Curtis (aka "Booger") Armstrong can't save the day, he seems to aimlessly wander through it with a pleading look in his eyes, as if to beg "PLEASE Just give me one funny thing to do!" In fact most of the cast looks embarrassed to be there, and they should be, I just hope they were paid well and fed a decent lunch for their humiliation. 1 out of 10, a superb example of why TV is sometimes known as "The Idiot Box"

The stage curtains open ...

"Behold! The nerd child!"

Well, I've done it. I've seen all of the "Revenge of the Nerds" movies. Though this final installment wasn't the best sequel, it was better than Part III was. Booger takes center stage with this one as we join him on his very special wedding weekend. Yep! Booger is getting married. Overall, I had fun watching all of these movies back-to-back. The very final scene was a perfect way to close out the film as well as the series. But, more on that later. Let's look at the plot line.

As I mentioned before, Booger arrives at his future in-laws home for his wedding to the girl of his dreams, Jeanie - an Omega Mu. Of course, his nerdy, crass ways do not sit well with her family, especially her father who would rather resort to breaking up the wedding than suffer Booger as his new son-in-law. So he commissions his other son-in-law to dig up whatever skeletons in Booger's closet he can find to cast a shadow of doubt in Jeanie's mind. When a 12-year-old girl arrives saying that Booger is her Dad, it surprises everyone. Even Booger, who can't be sure it if is true or not. Meanwhile, Lewis and Betty, who are expecting their first child, and the rest of the gang show up as well to give Booger their support.

The last movie in the series showed a lot more heart than the third movie did. It was made-for-tv, and it felt like it, but it was a fun time. Corinne Bohrer, as Booger's bride, Jeanie, steals the show. She was perfect as the quirky, uninhibited, and slightly off-kilter love of his life. They actually made sense - LOL. She was so much fun to watch. Ogre is back as well, and Stan Gable shows up, now a confirmed nerd himself - though he spends most of the time in bed because he has the chicken pox.

The final scene where the closest of the bunch are gathered around to look at the new baby was perfect and just the right way to close it all out. "It's going to be a good year" someone says and they all laugh. I loved it. I would actually recommend this one. It isn't great, it isn't even a strong film, but it was entertaining with a solid feed-good vibe to it. Well, this one is over. Someday, I will be revisiting my nerdy friends again down the road.

This movie is not as good as one and two but a real better than three. This had a couple of laughs. This was a movie that started of funny and then boring. The ending was predictable and pointless. I think the writers wanted to end it on a bad note. Because if they wanted to end it on a bad note they should have done that with three. So they really screwed up. Again being a fan of the nerd movies this not the best. So if you want to have a couple of laughs watch this. One more thing for the fans who liked the first there will be a remake.It want be that good so don't get your hope up. Again it was a good not to finish on and stuck to the writers.

I just watched the fourth installment in the Nerds series and I must say that I wasn't disapointed. Many of the actors from previous films are brought back and definatly revive the film, I was shocked to see James Cromwell in this. Booger and the gang are back!!
