Can an uppity young hammer thrower find true love at the Olympics? As a boy, Wee Geordie was picked on for being puny. Determined to change his life, Geordie answers an ad for the Charles Atlas workout. Flash ahead a few years and Geordie, now played by Bill Travers, is a strapping young man who is ready to take on the world. Unfortunately, Geordie's head has gotten as big as his muscles. When his girl dumps him, Geordie enters the Olympics. That's where he meets the towering shot-putter Helga who is the only woman who can beat Geordie on the field. This is a quirky and delightful romantic comedy sure to please all.

Expert Review:
It's strange for any Disney picture to fall completely from the collective awareness, and bashed as this film has been by some, it's a treat that should get a second look. A sci-fi romp that screams of early era Disney vision, and has Ernest Borgnine and Anthony Perkins in fun roles, this one is itching for a new generation of viewers.
