The nerds are now in control of the university, as a result of Lewis Skolnick and the rest's actions in the two previous movies. A new generation of sportsmen arrive, however, determined on winning the school back. The principle, himself an ex-nerd fighter, helps them, and the nerds return to suppression. Harold Skolnick needs help from his uncle Lewis, the hero of the first two movies. Lewis, however, are not too proud of his nerd past, and won't reveal any of it, much less help his nephew. However, his wife makes him change his mind, and with help from his friends from the first two movies, they start the fight to win the school back, using classic nerd tricks.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Lisa Habig OK; I don't get all the negative reviews here. I will list what I did and did not like about this film. Being that I am a HUGE Robert Carradine fan, I was pleased as punch to see him reprise his role as Lewis Skolnick. You can replace a lot of actors in a lot of roles but not this one; Mr. Carradine owns it and nobody could ever do what he's done with this character. I also liked seeing Julia Montgomery back in her role as Betty and Curtis Armstrong as Booger. I didn't care for the "new generation" of nerds. Toyota is just a bad ripoff of Booger, I don't understand that Edith character at all and the character of Harold Skolnick seriously lacked the charm of the original nerds. I liked how Stan Gable finally came to understand who he is and to embrace himself; seems like he finally learned how to take responsibility for his own life. All in all, this was a cute movie but it did not have the charm of the original or the first sequel. My favorite part was the end when the original nerds came back to support Lewis. The actor who played Gilbert bore a striking similarity to Anthony Edwards. I would love to see another ROTN come out; perhaps with Lewis and Betty's son now at Adam's College? I would watch that most definitely!!!
Kristine I recently bought the "atomic wedgie" edition of the Revenge of the Nerds. It has all the four movies, so I watched Revenge of the Nerds III: The Next Generation this afternoon and once again after looking at the IMDb rating, I was a bit scared on what to expect, but so far, I'm really liking these movies. Yeah, they're a bit ridicules, not to mention that I think Revenge of the Nerds III: The Next Generation took a different direction than the original Nerd film, but it's all good. I thought it was actually a fun story and a new introduction of all nerds uniting together and showing who really takes care of the jocks in the world.Lewis has now turned himself into a huge stud and is living with his wife, Betty. His nephew and his nephew's friend have gone to the same college and have joined the Lamb's, but we have a new dean in town, Stan is back! He and an alumni of the school are joining together to ban all nerds from the town. The nerds call on Lewis to get back to his nerd roots and help them take over the town, hopefully Lewis can get past this silly smooth operator appearance, because it's not working for him or the nerds that need him most.Revenge of the Nerds III: The Next Generation is nothing special, but it still has a few laughs. I really didn't think it was bad, at least not as bad as the rating would on IMDb led me on. Revenge of the Nerds III: The Next Generation is just a fun movie that I think people need to be open too, it's a different direction in the story but it works over all. So just give it a shot, I think you'll actually enjoy this story, after all, everyone's gotta love the nerds.5/10
steve-575 One of the funniest movies ever made!!! Those nerds just kill me! I couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole movie. These "Revenge of the Nerds" movies get better with each sequel. This one ranks up there with "Airplane" and "Something About Mary" among the best comedies ever made. I can't wait to rent "Revenge of the Nerds: Part 4". Hopefully it will be as good as this one. My only complaint about this movie was that Gilbert didn't really appear in this movie. He made a cameo appearance at the end but it was a different actor. Which brings to mind, one question. What was Anthony Edwards thinking when he turned down a part in this movie masterpiece? Thankfully, he didn't make the same mistake twice and later chose to do ER.
chet-3 Getting my eyes gouged out with a hot poker. Open-heart surgery without anesthetic. Becoming a quadruple-amputee. What do these things have in common? They're all things I'd rather do or have done to me than watch "Revenge of the Nerds 3" again. This movie is without a doubt the most god-awful piece of crap ever released! What were any of the people involved thinking? The acting writing, direction and situations were among the most pathetic I've ever seen on TV or anywhere else. "Revenge of the Nerds 3" is what's wrong with the world today. The writer and director fully deserve to be shot. DON'T SEE IT!!!!!! If one of your friends ever wants to watch it, kill them, then kill yourself for being friends with anyone who would even consider watching this. As for me, I wasn't lucky enough to have people like me to warn them against this travesty. But you still have a chance. Stay away from this one, or may God have mercy on your soul.
