THIS IS UNBELIEVABLY BAD!!! Reacting to "Master of Disguise" by Nostalgia Critic

[@peair2000]

I was yesterday years old when I found out that "turtle club" quote was a meme to begin with. Even crazier, I found out they started filming the movie only TWO WEEKS after 9/11. The turtle scene was the first scene shot, and they had a group prayer planned that day for the victims and their families. Dana Carvey apparently couldn't manage to get that the prosthetic turtle suit and makeup off in time for the prayer, so he had to join the prayer with all that sh*t still on. He looked exactly like he did in the scene. While everyone else was normal with normal clothes. A group of normal people and a single bald, weird upper lip man in a giant turtle suit holding hands, heads down, and solemnly praying for victims of 9/11. That mental image is easily funnier than anything else this movie has or will ever produce.

[@KenTheNoun]

I thought that the story was that the turtle club scene was filmed on 9/11.

[@andresf.7563]

i feel it´s almost tragic that the funniest thing to think about regarding this movie, regarding this scene, is that 9/11 can be related to it.

[@CassiusStelar]

It's a common misconception that it was filmed *on* 9/11. Even got our friend Ken here above me. No, everyone got out of work after the attacks, that's how national tragedies usually are.

[@DamionStingerDrake]

If you think this is bad you should check out his Baby Geniuses review because Nostalgia Critic is comatose for the entire review it was that bad.

[@apolloknight9521]

Wait you serious?!

[@b3rz3rk3r9]

About the Mike Nelson thing, He was a host on a show called "Mystery Science Theater 3000," where he and two robots would riff on bad schlock films from way back. And I mean REAL BAD. Also, I recommend The Ghost Rider review. If only to sample the tiny snippet of Spiderbait's cover of Ghost Riders in the Sky. That soundtrack kicked so much ass, you could call it Bruce Lee. Or even the first actual NC episode after his return, "Odd Life of Timothy Green." Like, good grief did he choose a stinker of a film to return with.

[@seamusburke639]

I worked at a movie theater when this came out. We HATED the ending, because audiences are inclined to stay for the credits if there's something to see, even for a POS like this. We just wanted to sweep up and be done with it, but this movie made everyone linger. I even did the math; the movie is 80 minutes TOTAL and the credits go for 15 minutes, showing whatever half baked crap they could to pad out the runtime. That means there's only 65 minutes of actual produced content in this film. It's barely longer than an episode of SCANDAL. And they filmed 20 plus episodes a season! Telltale sign of a bad movie is when it doesn't even reach 90 minutes. You should be ASHAMED if that happens!

[@northwindkey]

I mean, plenty of Disney animated films go under 90 minutes. Hell, Batman Mask of the Phantasm is under 90 minutes.

[@seamusburke639]

Not the same thing and you know it.@@northwindkey

[@MrWhatdafuBOOM]

Turtles are reptiles, not amphibians, btw.

[@seamusburke639]

So there was a rumor that the Turtle scene was filmed on 9/11. This turned out to not be true. The scene was filmed two or three weeks afterward. However, they did observe a moment of silence before filming, while Dana Carvey was in the turtle costume...

[@theduckgoesmoo]

I mean why not…

[@BatmanFan76]

5:54 I miss 2013 Nostalgia Critic, because this part was pretty funny. Rachel was just ready to put that needle in NC. 😅

[@TnT_F0X]

The reason this movie exists is before youtubers it was hard to find people dressing up and making weird noises. Now that's a whole Genre of videos...

[@applejayz1987]

I always thought "Master of Disguise" was gonna be like a victorian, sherlock, "Catch Me If You Can" kinda movie... until I watched it... I miss my innocence

[@ARCtheCartoonMaster]

14:57 It means “small” in Italian. The reason the instrument is called that is because it’s a small flute.

[@CassiusStelar]

And piccolo the character is called that because he starts off normal adult size and gets huge. And also because the other mutant namekians/demon spawn are named Drum and Piano

[@YukoValis]

Something you need to understand about that comment. Mike Nelson: "The third worst comedy I have seen" Mike Nelson has seen a LOT of movies, and most of them really bad. He was in a show for many years called MST3K where they watched and commented over some of the most hilariously bad movies you have ever seen. Mike has seen it all. So for him to say this was that bad should mean something.

[@brandonrobinet6285]

the worst thing is that at 29 years old i still wind up quoting this movie it has been burned into my brain since childhood

[@GloveClanOG]

Yeah, there’s something about saying “I am not turtle-Ly enough for the TURTLE club” that just never left my head. I had a buddy mention it in middle school…kinda knew what he meant, then to finally see reviews and remember that turtle 🐢

[@Pylo-ry6ff]

I have been informed trauma is like that.

[@coolgamer122]

I'm not gonna lie growing up this is one of my childhood movies. I regret nothing.

[@dustinroberts6963]

Same

[@Acerama]

Then we shall die on this hill together my friends 😂 favorite of my siblings, parents, and I

[@corruptofficial8638]

20:00 Hotline Miami gameplay starts here. This movie fucking blows.

[@EditDeath]

Just looked up the guy who said this was the third worst comedy. On his list, #2 was Junior, a film about a pregnant Arnold Schwarzenegger that tried to play it straight. #1 was Little Nicky, which had Adam Sandler as the son of the Devil. Shockingly I don't think Doug's reviewed that last one!

[@chrisbowers7523]

Duck goes moo the hot mom in this movie is the voice of Tina in the looney tunes show and was on blue blood .

[@connorwood9211]

- So this, Garbage Pail Kids or Freddy Got Fingered. What's worse? - His Battle Angel Alita review. On of the very few decent live action anime adaptations

[@josephrowe849]

The Indian stereotype is so bad it makes Apu look PC.

[@TnT_F0X]

10:35 Excuse me I think that's the Sword's Forend.

[@ericb9252]

18:12 Turtles are reptiles.

[@averagegamecritic]

What’s sad is that there’s a good idea buried in this. Drop the last name, make it a super hero thing. Super mask powers can work (the mask was good, even if the show wasn’t big and the sequel was…unspeakably bad). Like Blank Check, it’s a good idea buried in tons of shit

[@ericb9252]

Do NC's Tribute to Siskel and Ebert next. That way you can do Top 11 Funniest Siskel and Ebert Reviews after.

[@Pylo-ry6ff]

Second that. And then he can do North after that. Because it's the obvious progression at that point.

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

This movie was supposed to be a satire of satirical/offensive spy spoofs… and boy did they go above and beyond. Its so painful that you have to laugh… or else you will likely feel your mind start shattering…

[@theduckgoesmoo]

That was the point???

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

@@theduckgoesmoo yeah, they meant to do it, and managed it, but… so much so that it broke the boundaries of what they thought they could achieve and reached… horrifying new heights that you either want to bleach from your brain, or sear into it in some messed up form of humor

[@nahseermoffet6484]

20:05 Doug walker as goro majima

[@davisphillips993]

18:10 Turtles are reptiles

[@featherguardian6023]

I will admit that this Underrated Movie is a Guilty Pleasure for Mine, Yes is a Random Mess but it’s not as Bad as other say, plus this Review was Fantastic and Hilarious, especially when NC went mad with the Little Wiener and Tiny Nut Joke.

[@NY4Life]

Mike Nelson was a host of Mystery Science Theater 3000

[@chrisdiokno5600]

Data and Lore were characters from Star Trek the Next Generation. Lieutenant Commander Data was an android officer who came to try and find what it meant to be human. Lore was his murderous twin "brother"

[@Dim4323]

Brent spinner

[@spartana1116]

19:40 ah yes thr most memorable NC moment, the time he temporarily returned to monkey

[@crimsonknight7011]

One of the best scenes showing how bad it is was during a scene where he is in a boat. He is in this little boat in a pond and he is dressed up as the captain from JAWS. While he is talking the JAWS suspense music is slowly building and building and building until it gets to its peak…..and then just stops with nothing happening and the scene just keeps going. Like there is no payoff once so ever

[@SixshotRevan]

One of my friends in middle school loved this movie and quoted it daily. I never understood why back then, and I have even less of a clue now.

[@Rubyshedinja33]

Are you not duckily enough for the duck club

[@giuseppeianniello1998]

Despite its status as one of the worst comedies ever made, it only received one Razzie nomination. Bo Derek’s cameo in the beginning of the movie was nominated for Worst Supporting Actress. She lost against Madonna in Die Another Day.

[@dustinroberts6963]

I am one of the few people that actually enjoyed Master of Disguise. I genuinely loved it. It was one of my favorite movies when I was younger. I still love it and I will die on that hill.

[@CaptainCat101]

The journey of the Fart Joke is the greatest adventure story ever told.

[@cross172]

I’m just going to say it: I loved this movie growing up! I had a little VHS TV in my room and this was the movie I watched more than any other I had. No matter what, I’ll always have a soft spot for it!

[@Dim4323]

They removed the Jaws scene

[@alexmalcolm6309]

For a bit of context: Mike Nelson has worked on such shows as Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, which basically means he has spent the last 30 years or so making a career of watching bad movies. So if he says this is the 3rd worst comedy he's ever seen, then not only is it bad, it is impressively bad. You should check out Doug's reviews of either Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014, The Smurfs, or Alone In The Dark

[@BDTXIII]

It's very fortunate that I didn't buy the disc back then.

[@XFlight2010]

19:29- 20:53 Yes this One is just horrible but funny at the same time 😂😂😂

[@bro-brolostinthought81]

Am i not turtley enough for the turtle🐢 club?this is the only thing I remember from this movie.

[@calvine295]

BTW, while turtles are AMPHIBIOUS, they are not AMPHIBIANS. They are reptiles.

[@crimsonknight7011]

I Love Lucy with the candy factory is hilarious and comedy perfection

[@DragonicOverlord13]

Nostalgia Critic is right this Movie Blows, also Turtles are Reptiles not Amphibians

[@Xanderj89]

The Adam Sandler formula is incel protagonist getting a dream girl by being the nice guy/not-like-the-other-guys, while throwing in as many homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, and racist ‘jokes/caricatures’ in as he can fit. And I wish i was joking, but you can literally check them off one by one in every damn Happy Madison movie

[@MikeMozzaro]

I'm kinda shocked you took so long to react to this one; this is *infamously* awful; and Dougs line about reviewing a bad comedy sticks in my brain every time I see one.

[@theduckgoesmoo]

I had never heard of it until recently

[@timothymorris157]

I’m pretty sure it was Junior and Little Nicky that Mike Nelson said were the worst films he’s ever seen.

[@zebreacts9706]

Honestly, I didn't think the movie was that bad when I was a kid. I didn't think it was great, but didn't mind it.

[@childishsloth4164]

Love how he can remember their names😂

[@doubledamn2599]

If you're starting to watch the First Viewings, I highly recommend Freddy Got Fingered and Sleepwalkers

[@chrisbowers7523]

Duck goes moo , the actress in this movie was half Italian she knows what they are saying .

[@natethomas6879]

You should also watch his reviews of the Animated Titanic Movies… yes animated Titanic movies… those are among the worst films Doug has ever watched… dead serious

[@Diinytro]

Regardless of everything else about this movie, I still believe it has the best use of a fart gag.

[@Acerama]

I don't care what anyone says, this is the hill I will die on. Me and my family absolutely loved The Master of Disguise when I was a kid. Still do to this day.

[@tfrowlett8752]

As bad as this film is, my brothers somehow like this movie, they were actually upset when Netflix removed it.

[@haydenhowell9277]

The room is the worst Birdemic is the 2nd worst And master of disguise is the 3rd worst

[@charlescannon2469]

Strangely I adore this movie. Provided it is viewed as a improv sketch. It's a silly movie, not really made to taken seriously.

[@DanaOtken]

Saw the movie, kind of liked it. It's not a great movie, but it isn't ashamed of being shlocky and clearly manages to enjoy itself. ...I've come to realize how important that is.

[@averagegamecritic]

Next Valentine’s Day you should do some month of love reviews: Odd Life of Timothy Green, and Pearl Harbor. Yes, PEARL HARBOR. By MICHAEL BAY. A romance movie by Michael, Fucking Bay. Like your anti child hood feats, I have anti movie feats. I felt this was fine. I like crap. I have this movie

[@sebastiantrias1529]

Nice your reacting to this classic bad review of the critic.

[@cjdragonemperor5374]

I think you should watch Nostalgia Critic: Felix the Cat

[@Angyali]

15:31 & 21:18 🤣

[@TheSacredSavior]

This movie is just no. Critic did at least something to make it more enjoyable. You can easily see why Rachel and Tamara are both great in being the Crazy Lady. For next reaction I am requesting either Doug's "The Review Must Go On", or Critic's review of "The Review Must Go On".

[@Chibi1331]

I actually have this movie in my collection lol

[@natethomas6879]

You really need to watch the Baby Geniuses review. He reviewed that and it’s horrible sequel Baby Geniuses 2… you’d better be prepared to laugh and cringe 😂 😬

[@joshy9857]

You should check out his video on The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog

[@diegothetoon6999]

I would love if you did a reaction to nostalgia critic's review of return to oz.

[@BlahBlahWoofWoof12]

Does this mean you're not turtley enough for the turtle club?

[@shaneelliott6133]

You check out twisted savvy: hit it right

[@horn_hero]

I kinda enjoyed master of disguise as a child…

[@Dim4323]

Watch waynes world movies you gonna laugh.

[@LemonHomeProductions]

Next you should watch his video on Baby Genius

[@ttv-gamer123cool-gamer8]

🔥

[@horn_hero]

Someone probably says this on the comments already but the turtle club scene was filmed on 9/11. No joke

[@thehonestreviewer7754]

That's long been proven false, and the scene was shot a few weeks after 9/11.

[@hermannmakuta3311]

0:15 - I recommend Wonder Woman - Nostalgia Critic

[@taylorwatts9391]

Next one you do from Nostalgic critic you do, you should do his review of ‘Kung Pow: Enter the Fist’

[@True105]

You should react to his most recent review, kung pow enter the fist

[@ImTheGuy]

Day three hundred and Fifty Two of asking for a reaction to Max0r's MGR inaccurate summarization.
