All the world knows about Einstein the scientific genius. But what about Einstein the matchmaker? I.Q. puts this fanciful notion to the test and comes up with winning results in this “fun, warmhearted romantic comedy” (Roger Ebert) that has critics and audiences cheering. Walter Matthau gives one of his greatest performances as the famed physicist who must solve a particularly vexing problem – how to lure his spirited niece Catherine (Meg Ryan) away from her stuffy British fiancé (Stephen Fry) and into the arms of her perfect love match... a sweet-natured auto mechanic (Tim Robbins). It will take all of the professor’s smarts (and wiles) to transform the grease monkey into a shining knight. But never underestimate the mind of Uncle Albert – or the power of love.

Brilliant. Why no blu-ray release?
This is a very underrated little rom-com with an excellent cast and a fun premise. It's worth it just for Walter Matthau enjoying himself as Einstein-plays-Cupid, but the rest of the cast do a great job also. The HD masters have existed for years on broadcast and streaming services, but sadly no blu-ray release yet.

Great comic film
Really an enjoyable film set in beautiful Princeton New Jersey. I lived there for ten years and virtually every scene is still the way it looks today.
