    • Trivia
      Some of the Medfield College exterior scenes were filmed in the Disney Studios courtyard. The background buildings were the old animation buildings on the corner of Mickey Avenue and Dopey Drive.
    • Goofs
      When chasing the invisible car, Dexter tells the other college students to keep their eye or for anything. Just after that the invisible cast drives through a puddle of water on the side of the road without having any effect on the tires becoming visible again. This should have happened since water is what neutralizes the invisibly spray.
    • Quotes

      Dexter Riley: Yeah but the main thing is I can make myself invisible! I mean can you image that? Look, look, look, human flesh, invisible!

    Arno Strikes Back
    College genius Dexter Riley (Kurt Russell) creates a formula for invisibility spray. Villainous businessman A.J. Arno (Caesar Romero) is released from jail and immediately starts scheming to turn Dexter's university into a casino. Dexter uses the invisibility spray to help save the school but Arno discovers his secret and steals the formula.

    Second in Disney's Dexter Riley trilogy with Kurt Russell, Caesar Romero, and company. It's an enjoyable bit of fluff. You won't hurt your brain, that's for sure. Russell and the rest of the cast are good. Joe Flynn as Dean Higgins steals every scene he's in. Decent special effects and family-friendly humor. It's a fun movie that should appeal to young and old alike.
