The Master of Disguise is Miserable! - Talking About Tapes

Tony and Joe review Master of Disguise and talk about why it is so miserable. In this Podcast / Movie Review of Master of Disguise they will relive some of the most annoying parts of this film like Dana Carvey's (Wayne's World) terrible Italian accent, Brent Spiner's (Star Trek TNG) constant farting, and the painfully unfunny Turtle Guy.
The Master of Disguise is a 2002 American adventure comedy film directed by Perry Andelin Blake and written by Dana Carvey. In the film, Pistachio Disguisey (Dana Carvey), a genial waiter at his father Frabbrizio's (James Brolin) Italian restaurant, possesses an uncanny knack for mimicry. What he doesn't know is that his talent is genetic, and that he is the descendent of a long line of "Masters of Disguise," all of whom have inherited the secret family gift known as Energico. Initially, Pistachio is a klutz, but little by little, he learns to harness his inherited power, and sallies forth to utilize Energico to its fullest.

Could you have Thrisha show some Italian excitement?!

Never Forget The Turtle Club Scene

[@alexcaswell6745]

For some reason, my immediate response to this film when it released was a deeper appreciation for Jim Varney.

[@RichV20]

Ernest movies usually have him in disguises as well. At least they are amusing and are on screen for a minute and don't overstay their welcome. Ernest can be grating at times too, but he'll know when to pull the zaniness back during scenes where you feel some empathy for him.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

I saw this movie in the theater, when the movie ends and the lights were turned on...I noticed I was the only one left

[@nicholasbintner4677]

Mike Myers actually stole the Dr Evil character from Carvey, they actually have had heat with each other over it

[@ScarysReviews]

[@cessxiii]

...according to Dana. According to basically everyone else, it's a Lorne Michaels impression (which is EASY to hear), which EVERYONE FROM SNL has basically had a version of, since before Dana.. lol I think he needs (needed to) to get over himself n the fact he didnt have all of the tools necessary to take off on his own. Claiming a Lorne Michals impression is yours, is as dumb as claiming a Christopher Walken impression is yours lol They're ubiquitous in the comedy world.

[@jimvarney511]

@@cessxiii wrong. carvey was the first to do the impression and future impressions were modeled after his. doing an impression of lorne at that point was niche, it was not comparable to something "everyone does." also, carvey created the pinky-touching-the-mouth gesture, so mike myer's ripoff was blatant.

[@Eth3realwarrior]

Was her name Chrystal aka Svetlana? I knew a girl who loved this movie too. My god there's More than one!!!

"Clean Slate" 1994 is one of my childhood favorite films, starring Dana Carvey.

[@jm79design]

I have a fond memory because of this film. This was the first movie my daughter laughed at. She was about 2 at the time, and when he gets tripped and spaghetti flies everywhere, she started laughing uncontrollably. So we kept rewinding it and she kept laughing. Then we were laughing. Good times.

[@robk.6591]

Watching this movie gave me the sensations of what it must feel like to be waterboarded. Please follow this up with a review of The Love Guru.

[@heisensaul5538]

Oh god.... The Love Guru. The movie that killed Mike Myer's career. I remember I saw that when I was in college b/c he had a channel on the campus that was like a movie channel. My buddies and I watched it and despite the fact we paid nothing for it, we still felt ripped off for watching it lol

[@Squiggles95]

I would kill for a video talking about Inspector Gadget 2 with French Stewart 😂

[@anthonysoto2923]

Trouble in paradise guys come on! Dana Carvey was in a starring role in that.

I loved this movie as a kid... trying to watch it as a grown up is legit troubling and terrifying, wow I was stupid

[@forestcampbell8962]

I second that.

[@familypedro8]

I literally remember this from my childhood. I watched a small pic of him doing turtle bit fast forward to now I saw this on HBO Max. I watched for literally a minute and couldn't watch anymore. So my Fedora off to you guys for watching this again and reviewing it for our entertainment. I enjoyed your guys's review keep it up !

[@EricAbroad]

I loved this movie dearly as a young kid. I have quite a strong hunch that this movie does not hold up as an adult, haha. Looking forward to listening to this one!

[@joelbizzell1386]

Nostalgia is strong stuff, man. So much of the stuff (way worse than this) I loved as a kid still holds up now with me. I'll acknowledge it's not very good...but it doesn't make me love any of it less. 😄

[@1114maniacmike]

I think the love guru was mike myers’ answer to this

[@BIGMILKO]

Tony, my man! I am begging you- PLEASE do one of these for John Leguizamo's "The Pest"! It's not a good movie but it's such a 90's film and definitely still has some laughs in there. Loved this movie so much as a kid.

[@raullopez6495]

Yes we need The Pest review!

[@JordanGingold]

Preach ma dude

[@brandname6]

Yes!

[@eonk4]

Pistachio is basically Rey. Rey got those disguisio powers. Now it all makes sense

[@JosephO75]

My dad took me to go see this. Being associated with that good memory is probably the only reason why i remember liking this movie.

[@joshuacarreon6290]

The first movie I had seen with Dana Carvey perform in was Tough Guys. Good movie, hopefully it will get a review some day.

[@CelestialWoodway]

Dana Carvey hates Mike Myers because he says Mike stole his impression of Lorne Michaels and used it for Dr. Evil. Michaels is the producer of SNL for those that don't know. By the way Dana Carvey has a small cameo in Halloween 2 as an ambulance driver. Weird because the killer is Michael Meyers in that film! What a coincidence.

[@turnmeondeadman4221]

Cameo ? Lol

[@CelestialWoodway]

@@turnmeondeadman4221 Yes why is that funny?

[@turnmeondeadman4221]

[@shanehero]

I think it’s a true testament to how wretched Master Of Disguise is, that this review manages to both rag on it for longer than the actual movies run time, and also provided me with far more genuine laughs.

[@TheRealJanetteJones]

Dana Carvey was just doing his pepper grinder character most of the movie.

[@FordWMaverick]

About the 9/11 thing, I was working nights at the time. I was driving home and heard on the radio that a plane had hit one of the towers, but nobody knew how serious it was yet or what was going on. Everyone was pointing out that it wasn't the first time a plane had hit one of the buildings and they were even cracking jokes about it. I got home, went to bed, and when I woke up the tone of the news had changed somewhat...

[@Spthomas47]

Funny that...

[@marioamador1600]

Thinking back on it, this movie shares a LOT of similarities with Austin Powers in Goldmember and they both came out around the same time. Plot wise; both movies are about goofy spy-like characters with "unique" sets of skills and real roundabout ways of fighting crime. (Austin being a weird seductive British secret agent and Pistachio being a "Master of Disguise") Both feature love interests that are way out of the main characters league and ironically also feature scenes with attractive henchwomen to the main villain, wearing a color scheme matching the villain, who seduce the main character. (One of Bowmans blonde henchwomen with the large butts in the end credits to Master of Disguise also was a henchwoman to Goldmember in Austin Powers) The plot to Goldmember AND Master of Disguise focus on rescuing family members (Austins father and Pistachios parents) Both feature the main actors portraying MULTIPLE other characters in the plot. The only difference is that Goldmember was the THIRD Austin Powers movie and Master of Disguise BLESSINGLY didn't get a sequel. Scarily though, MOD was a financial success, THEY COULD HAVE A SCRIPT SOMEWHERE AT HAPPY MADISON FOR A SEQUEL TO THIS CRAZY MESS...

[@Hypno_BPM]

Austin Powers female partner was always out of his league since the first movie. Mike portraying other characters in the same movie under make up has been his gimmick before Austin Powers also.

[@R.J.Godzilla81]

Austin Powers + Ace Ventura ⭐️starring⭐️ Dana Carvy = Master of Disguise by Happy Madison Productions, the recipe for disaster proving some things just don’t go together.

I'm happy to have come across your video store a few hours ago. I miss hearing you and the gang at CINEMASSACRE Home Video. I remember watching this in the cinema with my girlfriend and her family. Miserable time.

[@eyancb]

I remember it as clearly as yesterday; my birthday came in the summer months and it was near. That is when the advertisements for this movie began, at least to my recollection. At the time, my nine year old mind had no idea of Dana Carvey or Mike Myers, only the hilarious antics performed in front of me on the television through the like of Wayne's World and Austin Powers. When I saw my first commercial for 'Master of Disguise' it was the first time in my life I thought to myself: "something about this movie just seems really bad". I will always thank this film for making me begin to critically think and not just 'watch' them. Films such as these provide a sort of lesson, something to be shown to ardent students. Thank you for making this.

[@Spthomas47]

Your birthday came in the summer months? When does it come now? ;)

[@ZenthaneX]

Please review Orca and Leviathan, both great! Also, since he pointed it out, I can't hear Tony not say Jawls.

[@TranzparentMethods]

As far as a Dana Carvey staring role, I still love "Opportunity Knocks". I would say it pretty much, still holds up. It's really funny as well, and that was pre-Wayne's World.

[@randalgraves6979]

Clean Slate

[@robertholston4708]

You can easily put Master of Disguise on the same level as the Shining. Jack Nicholson was in Anger Management with Adam Sandler. Dana Carvey was in Little Nicky. Also staring Sandler.

[@rastheking]

And Sandler was in a movie with Don Cheadle, so its Avengers Endgame level great🔥🔥🔥

That's a generous 3 minutes out of a 80-minute movie.
