Review Summary
Dexter Riley, resident nerd at the local community college, inadvertantly invents invisibility spray when a lightning storm wrecks his science experiment. He and his buddy Schuyler and their posse of fun-loving slackers use the spray to help the college's pathetically inept dean cheat at golf, plus they foil the plans of their arch-nemesis, A.J. Arno, and save the college from being turned into a gambling resort.
