MY SCIENCE PROJECT is an '80s teen high school sci-fi comedy that tends to get overshadowed in a decade full of similar pictures. And it's easy to see why, because there's nothing particularly remarkable about this film. It has stereotyped characters, including the rare chance to see Fisher Stevens as something very different from the role he played in SHORT CIRCUIT, and a time travel plot that doesn't really convince all that much. Plus the comedy is middling at best. It does have some cool special effects and a neat Dennis Hopper role, but other than that it's strictly by the by.
