  • Yeah....I like this movie better than the sequel...yargh...

  • 6:44 i was wondering what he was going to do with the yahoo sound, because HE'S RIGHT, THAT'S WHY IT'S FUNNY HAHA

  • I don't understand why he trashes Matthew Broderick's performance. He's a great actor.....that was given a badly worded script.

  • i rofl with the chris tuker part LOL

  • How did you get Chris Tucker to be part of your review?

  • Yes I used to like this movie...until I discovered the meaning of the "grab the balls" scene. Brrr.

  • FUCKING BUBBLES

  • As a child: :)

    As an adult: 0_0

  • Matthew Broderick isn't a bad actor. Ferris Beuller anyone?

  • Not as terrible as he makes it out to be, but the acting probably could be better. It sort of lacks that charm the show had. And there's a lot of "family-film" tropes weighing it down.

  • You´re so wright, Nostalgia guy. I also think Matthew Broderich was a miscast for Inspektor Gadget and I was also chessed off that I saw the face of Dr.Claw.

  • fucking bubbles...AND BALLOONS !!!!

  • I didn't agree with NC at first, because I loved this movie as a kid, but then I watched it again and it was just painful

  • PRODUCT WHOOOOOOOOOOOOORES!!!

    Love that line.

  • yes they got the loser from home alone 4

  • You think this movie is bad you should see its sequel...

  • i don't know. i liked this movie

  • Lol but when you see the sequel, which tries WAY TOOO HARD to make it more like the cartoon, you'll like this movie better

  • @PleaseHelpMeWithFIFA

    Well these are houses you'd WANT to burn!

  • EPICALLY DISAGREEING RIGHT NOW.

    this movie was delightfully corny!!!

  • 19 people imagine Dr. Claw looks like that gay guy from My Best Friend's Wedding

  • @BattyKellen Okay, I take back what I said and you're right there are lots of good movies made for kids and I've seen lots of them. However, I've seen even better adult movies like Inception, The Green Mile, Forrest Gump, Tron Legacy, Shooter, Law Abiding Citizen, etc, the list goes on. So I'm NOT missing out on anything.

  • 8:48 FUCKING BUBBLES!

  • 0:16 Robocop 3 was so bad its good? It was just bad Critic.

  • @AtlantaCommercials96 He never said it was so bad it's good.

  • @NeverContactMe He said it was unintentionally funny,that meaning he must found

    some amusement out of it.

  • i just found a plot hole that ruins the movie's screenplay

    if Matthew Broderick was just severly injured AND NOT KILLED, why would the doctor's turn him into a robot? why couldn't they just fix his limbs normally like they'd do with any other patient?

  • Comment removed

  • This movie completely butchers the source material.

    BUT (sob), it remains one of my guilty pleasures.

  • i actually like the line "just claw. one word, like madonna" cracks me up every time

  • I liked this as a kid

  • Fantastic!!!

  • they hid claws face in the sequel 

  • Matthew Broderick has had some great performances, its not fair to consider him a bad actor just because of this and Godzilla.

    It's like calling Eddie Murphy a bad actor because of the Adventures of Pluto Nash.

  • I remember when this movie came out and i was still pretty small. but ive always thought it was piece of shit.

  • AVGNs review was better... just thought I'd let you know ;)

  • @brendanraymond That was more the show then the movie.

  • @scottieman2 Regardless, it was better

  • I think Matthew Broderick is a pretty decent actor, but, I don't think this is one of his better performances.

  • I think matthew brodrick has a few good films...

  • Not as funny as i remembered...

  • @PleaseHelpMeWithFIFA I know right!

  • He should review the second.....

  • hey at least his review is funny

  • @CoolEasyProductions2 ...did you even read your own comment? "if you can't handle someone's opinion", your freaking out for no reason idiot, you have no right whatsoever to call someone's opinion "absurd", the fact that you even reply with a comment like that simply proves you are a complete dick, if you disagree you could FREELY express it without such hostility, I just hate people who freak out just because someone has an opinion other that differs from your own.

  • @CoolEasyProductions2 Talking to you has decreased my mental abilities, go back to your messed up world thinking what you want to think.

  • Love the Rowen and Martin Laugh in seques!

  • Whats so bad about Matthew Broderick? I thought he was awesome in the movie. Not a fair chance was given whatsoever. He probably just watched it right before the review and said oh wow look at all this stuff I can nitpick about. I thought it was a fun movie when I was a kid, of course it would seems kinda dumb watching it now. But...whatever I guess.

    Oh and Matthew did the voice of Simba so..he's cool just for that reason I'd say

  • @CoolEasyProductions2 Your kinda an asshole aren't you? so if it's a kid's movie then it has the RIGHT to be bad? I watched this movie as a kid and hated it, I thought it was creepy and stupid, never the less this review is funny, simply because you like this movie doesn't mean you have the right to call his opinion "absurd".

  • @CoolEasyProductions2 You don't have to agree with him. Personally I like this movie because it's so bad.

  • i was so disappointed when i saw this. total crap compared to what I expected.

  • Damn, I love this movie, but what the critic says is so true.

  • I used to like this movie but looking at it now WTF!!!!!

  • @360KingReviews I still love this movie, no matter what others say! MIND WILL NEVER CHANGE!

  • @360KingReviews

    That's the thing though, it's pretty cringe-worthy now. But back then it kept us entertained and had the crazy inspector gadget scenes and jokes you would find in the cartoon. It's a kid film, not Shawshank Redemption

  • @360KingReviews Same here.

  • @360KingReviews Haha! Yeah I feel the same. I loved this shitty movie as a child.

  • @360KingReviews that's the way i bet most people are looking at some of the movies he has reviewed recently. I liked blank check, inspector gadget, doug, etc. because i liked brainless entertainment as a kid :D

  • 4:39 austin powers ftw!!

  • I loved this movie when I was younger.

  • in the sequel they get a blonde girl, gadget is even more shitty and doctor claw is thankfully replaced

  • thumbs up if you laughed at "INTENTIONALLY FUNNY!"

  • i used to love this movie when i was little but looking at it now.....wow just......wow

  • in the sequel they dont show claw's face at all

  • Fuck Darth Vader, Matthew Broderick saying "Nooo!" is funnier.

  • Lol Have you seen War Games ???????????  Lmao

  • Oh god at the 12:25 introvert he fires a red rocket

  • if he hates matthew broderick does that mean he hates ferris buellers day off

  • @TheEastunder In the siskel and ebert review, it was brought and I think he said he liked it.

  • @Cutmon42X brought UP I mean!

  • good timing at 12:45

  • 4:39 Austin Powers music YAY!

  • 1:17 Isn't that the actor who plays the main character in Buler's Day Off?

  • @MrPotatoSack177 Why yes it is. He also voiced the adult Simba in The Lion King.

  • They couldn't even make Penny blond or Brain a yellow lab and CGI so he can talk? Where they afraid they would get sued by DIC company if it was too accurate? That's my only guess to why we can also see Dr.Claw with no threatening voice whatsoever I didn't even like the cartoon that much but geez Disney, do it right! Watch a few episodes before production -_-

  • Good thing the toothpaste isn't white lol

  • is it me or dose penny look like nostalgia chick in the face cause she dose

  • Sorry, ran out of characters, but anyway, they would be balling their eyes out! Next, you can't expect a disney movie to be produced without a cheezy love plug; That's like Charlie Sheen without drugs. Next, regarding Claw, you can't blame them for not keeping him in the shadowy chair. had they done so it would have been a cliche bad guy shaking his fist from a poorly lit room. pretty dumb sounding to me. all in all, I give Inspector Gadget an 7.5. Not perfect,, but not as aweful as you claim

  • Dude, I contest your opinion. First, It's a kids movie, not some bruce willis bloodbath. They made jokes that appealed to CHILDREN while making them semi-enjoyable by their parents undoubtably accompaying them to the theater upon release. Second, I enjoy this even now because of its cheezy nature and witty puns. Sure, no oscar worthy performance, but one we can all enjoy. third, If Brodrick were to go into an emotional breakdown over the loss of his humanity, how do you think kids would react?

  • Noooo ... I gotta get out of here .... Lmfao X___X

  • This movie was fucking shit. Even as a little kid I knew that. The only thing I have watched with Matthew Broderick other than this abomonation was Ferris Bueller's day off, and come on, that movie is a fucking classic.

  • Comment removed

  • Don't talk back to me young lady, that is no way to speak to your father. Oh, wait, you're not supposed to know that yet.

  • Poor Dawn Summers. She never seems to have parents.

  • @KittyfantasticoFTW Wait, the woman who played Dawn played Penny? Talk about going a downhill slope.

  • @panch0bill I know what Disney is and what they made, who hasn't?

  • @LadyCorsaires What?

  • @raysoflight08 No its definitely austin powers, just type in austin powers transition.

  • We can rebuild him. We have the technology..

  • i remember actually watching this movie as a kid, the only part i remember is the title and the guy who played as inspector gadget. i remember nothing about the movie, there was a sequel and i do remember watching it, even i knew when i was young that i hated it

  • 4:35 Great Austin Powers reference critic. :)

  • Critic the movie is for kids. Have you ever seen a good kids movie? Of any kind whatsoever? No? I didn't think so.

  • @Rack44hoonmaster Disney

  • @Rack44hoonmaster aladdin, the little mermaid, finding nemo, cinderella, the neverending story, alice in wonderland, beauty and the beast, an american tail, e.t...should i go on?

  • @Rack44hoonmaster Are you kidding me? Are you saying there aren't ANY good kid's films and just the fact that a film is a kid's movie automatically means it doesn't have to be good? Go watch Secret of Nimh, Iron Giant, Toy Story, Spirited Away, Nightmare Before Christmas. Hell, my list goes on and on. There are thousands of movies out there made by people who care about bringing quality to children. It's pretty sad that you seem to have missed out.

  • Guy Ritchie? No the other one. Oh Rupert Everett. LOL

  • This movie was crap. Wish i'd realized when i first saw it.

  • this movie isn't that bad

  • I think Matthew Broderick was good in Tower Heist.

  • Penny looks like the Nostalgia Chick in this movie

  • gay like u

  • I remember being so fucking excited about this movie coming out. I had even memorized the day it premiered and had a countdown for it too, yet when I went to go see it I was so disappointed. Dunno how I managed to figure out this was piece of shit at such a young age. I mean I couldn't tell the other crappy movies I loved were crap until I got older. Weird.

  • the movie wasnt so bad,the idea is to take a look at the gadgets not the story plus that was back in the past to where movies werent as great as today,so if u got stuff to say about wats wrong with the gadgets like shuvvin alotta toothpast into him then ya u got point but when u go about the story to parts that dont need attention then im not listening

    i friggin love the gadget mobile

  • @aabbklll101 Back in the past where movies weren't as great as today? Modern cinema sucks! What was once a legitimate form of art has now become a marketing device that has to appeal to large audiences. Not only that, they also had the wonderful idea to make movies about all the popular tv shows of the 80's, and proceed to rape them on the big screen with abismal writing and pop culture references.

  • @harry426 A perfect example of that would be Uwe Boll, he takes advantage of german tax loopholes so that he can constantly make horrible movies and still make alot of money

  • @harry426 Despite all the crap, art is still present. Having seen the movies "The Artist" and "The Social Network"so far this week, I know this is true.

  • @kickodude I'm not talking about the legitimate art of movie-making, but the omnipresence of the movie INDUSTRY. I know their still are movies with a degree of artistic content, might it be in its visual style or its narrative style. And I saw the Artist too, and by god is it good.

  • @harry426 Agreed on that basis. The industry nowadays seems to be a race of who has the biggest breasts and can therefore win over the largest adolescent male crowd. As a 16 year old myself, I just feel insulted.

  • Fucking bubbles x333

  • I...liked that movie

  • Dodged a bullet lol

  • 2:14 Go go gadget beastiality

  • I think I watched the second one and sorta liked it. WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!?

  • "You're not supposed to know it yet..." 6:25

    I PISSED MY TROUSERS!!!

  • @Horrordude365 me too, I used to watch it allot when I was little though I haven't seen it since I was like 8. I remember liking this movie allot

  • What's that he says when the Yahoo billboard falls on Dr. Claw's limo?

  • @SamhainTheDark He said, "PRODUCT WHORES!"

  • @ambskater97 Thanks. That makes more sense than what I thought he said. At least those are actually words.

  • FUCKING BUBBLES! :D

  • 7:45 Transition Time!

  • Modonna doesn't need help ruining her career, she did a fine job of it herself and has been going down ever since

  • Yet another review about this movie from someone who obviously never saw the show and don't know what they're talking about. Why do I say this? It's because aside from Claw actually being seen (and just think about how lame it would be if he wasn't) there's nothing in this movie that I wouldn't expect to find in the Inspector Gadget cartoon, something few movies based on shows pull off. In short, if you don't like the old cartoon you won't like the movie, and if you do, you'll have a blast.

  • @immortalfrieza not sure about that. i actually liked the cartoon, but hate the movie. plus, im not the only one to say this. sum of my friend used to love the movie as kids, but now, they seriously cant stand it today, but still love the cartoon. there is another factor into watching and judging child movies, people grow up and begin to notce things. if we really stuck with that kind of logic, Dragon Ball Evolution would have been considered a good movie when it was clearly terrible.

  • @Penny

    "No. I am your uncle . . ."

  • Wait, Inspector Gadget is a cyborg who was turned into a cyborg against his will, so when we hear him say "Nooo!",

    It shouldn't be "Nooo!"

    It should be "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!­!!!"

  • TOOTHPASTE TO STOP THE CRIME OF CREATE CAVITIES

  • "INTENTIONALLY FUNNY!"

    I wonder if the Nostalgia Critic will ever review the Robocop movies?

  • DUDE! we should all get together, kidnap some people, and remake The Insepctor Gadget movie, WHOES IN! 8D

  • FUCKING BUBBLES!

  • @xAnnabellafulx 9:09 is hilarious

  • Wow, Ferris Bueller became a bionic police officer. How'd you like that?

  • Does anyone know what was he referencing with the montage at 4:40?

  • @BrokenTourniquet That 70's Show

  • @BrokenTourniquet Yeah, either That 70s Show.. but it seemed like Austin Powers too.

  • @BrokenTourniquet "Austin powers 2, the spy who shagged me" i believe.

  • 11:42 - 11:57 i was dying of laughter

  • LOL I like how he emphasizes all the time that Dr. Claw was never revealed in the cartoon but is always shown in the movie.

    And when I thinik about it why did Dr. Claw need an actual claw, since he clearly has both hands in the cartoon. why couldn't he be called claw from the beginning and why did he need a backstory.

  • those are some pretty badass transitions you got there NC !

  • You know, a vast majority of NC reviews are of movies I enjoyed as a kid but as an adult realize how stupid they really were. However, this is the one movie I remember being UTTERLY BORED SENSELESS BY as a kid. Yes, its THAT BAD.

  • Michelle Trachtenberg :)

  • You have to admit... Inspector Gadget 2 was a lot worse

  • @fluteplaya22593 Yes IG2 was a bad movie, but it did follow alot of the elements form the show. From not seeing Claws face to the dog translator. So yes its a bad flick, but is a step up from IG1

  • @morrisl123 I agree that it was a step up and Penny actually had blonde hair! But still have G2 the female robot... what was the point of that... what happened to the doctor! And I do agree I loved not seeing Claw... but the casting for Inspector Gadget in IG2 was a bad choice... I think he over-played it

  • @fluteplaya22593 I think Brenda, Gadget's love intrest in IG1, was sent away to work at Plot Device Univercity after the first movie, as for G2, I have no clue. Also for the new casting of Gadget, I think somewhere in the commentary (no sure if I'm right or not) on the DVD he mentions that he knew he was just having fun in the role, and over-acting was pat of the fun.

  • @morrisl123 oh ok... I guess that makes sense :)

  • Ok try to the second one NC

  • Guy Ritchie ruined Maddonas career? Slap yourself, Snatch and Lock Stock are great movies.

  • @vampkiller760

    No, they're not. They're overstylised, testosterone-fueled masses of loathsome puerility.

  • So... Penny is the lost relative of Bruce Wayne?

    That explains why she was so smart!

  • I would love this if Chris Tucker voiced the car lol

  • OH Inspector gadget 1 was MUUUUUCH better that its sequel that just sucked butt

  • fucking disney again xDDDD xxx

  • Is it wrong to have enjoyed this movie when I was little?

  • @pkstarstorm1up No. I enjoyed the Tom and Jerry movie when I was little (though in my defense, I never heard of the cartoon at the time I watched it).

  • @PrinterThorn That's just like me. I never knew that Inspector Gadget was a cartoon for the longest time.

  • Comment removed

  • @pkstarstorm1up I did like the Inspector Gadget movie as a kid as well. As an adult, I really hate the bad editing. It is just terrible.

  • Yahooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo hooooooooo!

  • Star wars scene killed me lol

  • "My bubbles are augmented. I never asked for this." >:o

  • i can't be the only one why liked this movie well maybe that's because i was about four at the time but this really got me interested in the cartoon.

  • Thanks for ruining Star Wars for me.

  • anyone who doesn't like the reveal of Dr. Claw, any thoughts on the recent picture of the Once-ler in the new Lorax film that never revealed himself in the book?

  • lol, the star wars part actually looked and sounded reall.

  • isnt will and thought the same????

  • @The177Hunter Will is making something do whatever you want. Thought is THINKING about making something do whatever you want.

  • am i the only person who watched this video know who Gerald McBoing Boing was?

  • @Ninya It May Be too New. He Does old Movies unless He Makes An Exception.

  • @HyperShadow2550

    Oh.

    PS Does Nostagia critic even know about the sequel?
