    Original storyline, great music, Excellent feel good Movie.

    I saw this on VHS way back in the 80's. My then, young children, loved it(so did I). It has romance, humour & a hint of sadness. A computer develops feelings?? for an attractive young lady and causes mayhem for its shy Male owner. Great music from Culture Club at the ending. I would like to see this Movie again on DVD.

    Really bad

    Bad acting, a bad script, corny, childish. The song was by far the best thing about it.
