Synopsis
Bad Genius (2024) is an exam-room thriller you can watch online on iFILM. At a pricey Los Angeles prep school, the kids of bankers, politicians and movie stars have every problem solved for them but one — the final exam, which they actually have to pass themselves.
That's where Lynn comes in: a scholarship newcomer from a poor family, brilliant and ready to gamble her future for a shot at a better life. She builds a full cheating operation — hand signals timed to the second, a crew of paying clients, stakes that climb with every test. But the so-called bad genius has her own plans for these rich kids, and one wrong move brings the whole thing down. This is the English-language take on the cult 2017 Thai picture, with director J.C. Lee transplanting it to American soil where the class divide cuts even deeper. Callina Liang stars opposite Benedict Wong. The tension here runs on a ticking clock at a desk rather than car chases — a treat for anyone who loves a smart con story. Stream Bad Genius (2024) online on iFILM.
