Two unpopular teens conjure a gorgeous woman from a computer to navigate absurd, confidence-boosting chaos.
Absurdist, with big broad humor. A date-night pick at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
Not on a US subscription service as of Oct 29, 2026.
For a PG-13, this one goes further: moderate sex and nudity. Beyond that, some strong language and some violence.
Our estimate: fine from about 16, higher than the PG-13 suggests, because of the sex and nudity.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
Two unpopular teenagers, Gary and Wyatt, fail at all attempts to be accepted by their peers. Their desperation to be liked leads them to "create" a woman via their computer. Their living and breathing creation is a gorgeous woman, Lisa, whose purpose is to boost their confidence level by putting them into situations which require Gary and Wyatt to act like men.
Yes. It lands on a happy note.
