Inspector Gadget 2 Is a Perfect Movie

[@braedenalberti]

Like and subscribe or else I’ll make a video about Spy Kids 3. (Yes, that is a threat)

[@DarioSpina97]

I think I may do the opposite. I want that video looool

[@bigboyjdeku1761]

[@xenoman2238]

You're bluffing. Nobody's that degenerate!

[@shawnwarrynn8609]

I don't know the whole romance between Gadget and his Replacement doesn't really work and she's literally a robot as opposed to Gadget who is a cyborg and having actually humanity.

[@johnedsel]

French Stewart plays Gadget more closely to the cartoon version than Broderick did.

[@Here_is_Waldo]

I agree. I don't know how much acting ability Stewart actually has, but he was significantly closer to what I envisioned as Inspector Gadget than Broderick ever managed.

[@hdofu]

To be fair a random drunk could do a better gadget than Brodrick, but French Stewart actually understands the character.

[@beauwalker9820]

​@@Here_is_Waldo French Stewart's best role was by far Harry Solomon from "Third Rock from the Sun." I agree though, he wasn't bad as Gadget, and even sounded closer to Don Adams.

[@SergioLeRoux]

I don't know if I'd go as far as saying that French Stewart understood the role. I think French Stewart only knows how to play as French Stewart. It just happens that it is exactly the same as playing Inspector Gadget.

[@MorganAFunches]

I agree 👍🏿 💯

[@NerdilyDone]

Real talk, Inspector Gadget is just one of those franchises that makes no sense in live action. It doesn't work without expressive 2D animation and a dog that talks.

[@johndelye3402]

One thing I can't over is his hat. Not many people can pull of a green pork pie hat with an Indiana Jones style brim,lol.

[@eijentwun5509]

I disagree

[@pedroamaralcouto]

I think those adaptations are goofier than the original cartoons.

[@Here_is_Waldo]

Agreed. Everything about Gadget is a cartoon, and he just doesn't fit in a real-world environment. Imagine Robocop with extendo-arms and a helicopter hat; it just doesn't work.

[@hdofu]

ironically talking dog was the only thing that the first movie got right.... but the talking car.... was the biggest mistake ever. The classic cartoon gadget mobile was a car that could turn into a van.... it never said anything... and that made it a lot more likable... honestly I could forgive a lot of the flaws of the adaption.... but I seriously hate that car

[@TotallySearch]

You can't lie though, the female cop was a baddie 🤫

[@hdofu]

One of those rare times the sequel direct to video is better than the original.

[@MorganAFunches]

Agreed!

[@ryancampbell955]

If you took some of the elements of this movie and paired them with the budget of the first, I think you could've had a pretty solid Inspector Gadget movie.

[@jeremyallen5974]

I don't care what people say, this movie was awesome

[@jeremyallen5974]

​@bkbeatty6087 this Gadget does his own Cartoon-y thing

[@MorganAFunches]

Its one of my guilty pleasure movies! Much better than the 1st one Imo!

[@Segadrome]

Literal childhood nostalgia. I remember having both films on VHS, but only watching the 2nd one. French Stewart is such an underrated comedic actor, his performance in this and 3rd Rock are hilarious to this day.

[@reggyjohnson9083]

I got mine from the library

[@DavidMartinez-ce3lp]

I agree and I had a huge crush on French watching 3rd rock from the sun! Lol! ❤

[@MildChunkySalsa]

Unfortunately, I only remembered him for being in one episode on That 70’s Show. I haven’t watched 3rd Rock is such a long time

Technically Robo-Cop is kind of the gritty reboot to these movies.

Robocop came before these movies.

*I think there is potential in Gadget reboot. Maybe they could do a stylish CGI movie like Tin Tin or Lupin III: The First.*

[@theothertonydutch]

Wes Anderson should direct a stop motion Inspector Gadget reboot.

[@badnoodlez]

I feel insane for not realizing a lupin style gadget movie would be amazin

[@10191927]

A Gadget movie done like the Lupin movie would be godly, still cartoony designs but pulled off with just enough realism. That would be an incredible movie.

[@timothyfinch7295]

At least Gadget actually acted like himself in this one unlike the first film where he was an overly sensitive nerd.

[@supamariosoniku]

Terrible Director at the time

[@ladypool1404]

And scream like a monkey when he saw a lady's butt AS WELL as watching her with cameras before he became Inspector gadget. It's what a real cop would do, isn't creepy at all 😂

[@ZarctheCelestialDuelist]

​@@ladypool1404At least that's the only thing that Mathew Broderick got right with his character

[@indiedavecomix3882]

I thought I sensed a hint of sarcasm while watching this, but after watching the whole thing, I'm sure your review is genuine.

[@GuiltlessGear]

ill always appreciate stewart putting his whole ass into this role and actually bothering to doing the inspector gadget voice despite it just being a direct to dumpster sequel. Even as a kid, I accepted him as being Inspector Gadget, wheras the first movie scared me with how creepy broderick came off as.

[@cujoedaman]

The sad thing is French Stewart would have made a much better Gadget than Broderick simply because of his voice and style of acting. It's just too bad both movies suffered from - insert issue here -

[@bobsaget3369]

I remember when this movie came out I was literally so hyped to see it and the song they used to promote it was a banger , the inspector gadget theme is a certified bop

[@channingcheese2]

what was the song?

[@91MoonKnight]

I thought I was the only one who loved this movie better than the first. It's also an Aussie production any Aussie would notice some of these background actors.

[@Edmar_Fecler]

I used to watch this alot as a kid. Honestly, there’s one line from Claw that has genuinely stuck with me even to this day; “His goose will be cooked? More like, *_Deep fried and burnt to a crisp!_* ”

[@aayushbhandari4387]

"Is a subtle way to inform the viewers, that this is funny" Brilliant

[@manuelgrothe608]

5:35 We need Inspector Gadget 3 with the OG cast returning, also the 20th and 25th anniversaries of the movies

[@NoriMori1992]

As a kid my dumb ass didn't even notice it was a different actor playing Gadget. To be fair I saw them several years apart. But still.

[@optimascrime5235]

I completely forgot this movie even existed.....Now that I think about it I completely forgot they re casted Matthew Broderick😂

[@SuperCosmicMutantSquid]

French Stewart did a better job as Gadget because he embraced the over the top confidence but goofiness of the character.

[@electrobob992]

I personally wished they had G2 be a cyborg just like Gadget instead of a robot. But maybe worse off, had her memories wiped, etc.

[@Killthefish]

Why did I never know about this, the original was a perfect example of the dichotomy of being a man and machine, twisted by the world and made a god among men, the story telling was superb and the char were rich and full of story, as a once top graduate of my S.A.S squad I can say you should sell all your earthly possessions and buy a copy of the original live action film, truly this film will change your life and this sequel is the pinnacle of perfection I laughed, cried and almost passed out from the sheer amounts of times I was left breathless, my life is complete, thank you inspector and as a great man once said, Go Go Inspector Gadget

[@mrpopsful]

French Stewart does make a good Inspector Gadget. Damn shame about the writing and the effects. Should have had him in the first movie instead.

[@ericchung3177]

I've always wondered why they decided to make Claw more like the cartoon wherein we never see his face for this one. In the film preceding it he's in like half the movie and you can clearly see what he looks like. It's not like this was a reboot, it's a direct sequel to the original. Yeah, they decided to recast him, but they recast Gadget and 90% of the other cast too so why even bother?

This was written by one of the creators of the original series.

[@ericjanssen394]

"Perfect", no-- But they finally got the right idea that French Stewart was BORN to play a live-action Inspector Gadget, in the way poor Matthew Broderick wasn't.

[@SlayerSantiago]

A lot of plot points from IG2 originated as ideas from the 2nd draft 1998 script for the first movie.

[@FilmmakerJ]

I know this is peak sarcasm. But I actually agree with most of your assessments. French Stewart is a far better choice for Gadget that Broderick. He's not great, but at least he's trying to sound like Don Adams a little. The tone of the film is much closer to the show. There's no globe-trotting, which sucks, but that's what happens on a tiny direct-to-video budget. The plot still has a purpose and a structure that has payoffs. And Penny is actually active in solving the crime on her own while Gadget catches up. Granted, Gadget is still more capable and aware of what's happening than he ever is in the show, but I think if he was a complete buffoon, it wouldn't work. There's more than one reason the Pink Panther formula went out with the late 70s. You can't root for a protagonist who is both mad and completely oblivious to what's happening around them.

[@AZITHEMLGPRO]

Great to see ig2 is finally getting its props

[@loggior.speedweed4345]

As much as Inspector Gadget does NOT work in Live-action, this movie is MILES better than the Mathew Broderick film (and corrects many of it's mistakes)! And French Stewart was MADE to play Gadget! its a shame he never got the recognition he deserves!

[@Dreadjaws]

All jokes aside, this movie is considerably better than the first one both as an adaptation and as a movie in general. Granted, the first one has a better budget, but that's it.

[@alexanderchippel]

So is G2 a robot? Or is she a cyborg like Gadget is? Because in the first movie he was just a meter maid who got into a car accident, and they decided to give him the RoboCop treatment Loony Tunes style. Or did some other cop get horribly mangled on the job and they just decided to do it again? Is that in their contract? Do cops in this city even have insurance?

[@thenate5367]

They explicitly point out in the movie that she's fully robotic

No, really, though this movie is better than the first one. The only cool thing that came out of the first one where the McDonald’s happy meal toys that were a little gadgets, and if you collect them all you build a giant inspector gadget.

Also, could someone answer this question for me: Where the hey hey did the lady from the first lady go (Brenda)??????? I don't they had an in movie explanation for that! This has bothered me for years!

[@MrSkillsMotivation]

Can you make a video on Spider-Man homecoming? EFAP said it was the best Spider-Man film, even though it wasn’t really a Spider-Man film. I happen to agree with them and when people say “he’s just ironboy,” I say “well Batman got all his equipment from fox so is he just fox boy, NO” Also homecoming was very good it had a great villain, he had to learn to use Spider-Man responsibly and not as a party trick, it shows that balancing his superhero life with his normal life is not easy when you want to have relationships. He has to be mature and rightfully take on a villain that everyone is dismissing and doesn’t care about. He has to realize that he is Spider-Man, Spider-Man is not something else (like an avenger) and use his abilities to take down a a villain that has alien tech. His romance between him and Liz is awkward but rightfully so bc he balances Peter and Spider-Man and when he realizes vulture is Liz’s dad he is terrified yet wants to stop him, but in that process he would throw away his only chance with the girl he has had a crush on for a seemingly long time. He ends up making the rightful decision and stops the vulture and even saves him in the end. He is offered the chance to be an avenger but realizes that no one would be trying to stop these smaller villains that are just glanced over, than these smaller villains could do things like steal from the avengers or hurt innocent people. So, he smartly decides not to become an avenger (which is idiotically undone two seconds into infinity war, and his whole not wanting to be an avenger and wanting tackle smaller foes is unexplored in later films, but with how no way home ended that could explored) and because of the good he did he gets the suit back, but aunt may seems him dawn the suit and she reacts crazily (which is then ,again, idiotically not explored in later films)

[@ladypool1404]

At least, in this movie; We RARELY see Claw's face and his voice sounds scary. Penny is brave, kind and proactive instead of comforting a villain and that's it! Gadget mobile is not as annoying as before which is great. None of his jokes were funny in the first movie. Here, he has a turbo and gives advices to Gadget; the car is gentle. Oh and the ending song is great. Catchy, has a nice beat and fun lyics. I like '' Up, up, up! '' a lot 😀
