Decidedly dumb, this ripoff of Flowers for Algernon has Elisabeth Shue playing the unlikely autism victim who miraculously gains intelligence and bionic powers like super-hearing after an experimental operation -- only to see said powers fade away over time. Shue's acting is atrocious, rivaled only by the idiocy of the story itself. See also At First Sight.
