THE NUTTY PROFESSOR

With voices by Drake Bell, Jerry Lewis, Brittney Irvin, Andrew Francis, Danielle Lewis, Logan McPherson

Written by Evan Spiliotopoulos
Directed by Logan McPherson & Paul Taylor

Not to be confused with the original Jerry Lewis comedy of the '60s, or the Eddie Murphy starring remakes, this animated feature does however include the voice of Lewis (as the original character now a grandfather).
The Jekyll & Hyde borrowed tale takes another turn here as a young genius attends a high-tech college for gifted kids where his grandfather (Lewis) teaches. He has to face his various fears, from school situations like a motorcycle race and bullies to that of not making a fool of himself in front of the girl he likes. So, in steps the magic potion his granddad created, transforming him from nerd to his cool alter ego - and as we all know, this leads to more trouble than its worth.

Fun for the kids, but not really the parents.
