(When the Dabney Coleman character sees John Brown in a head-to-toe body cast, he calls him " The English Patient.") The funniest moment in the movie comes at the end, as a credit cookie during the closing titles.

There are all sorts of pop culture references, but so what? There are admittedly some individual funny lines. The bad guy is played by Everett as a man fastidiously keeping a certain distance from the jokes. I didn't care about the action because it made no difference to me who won or lost. As it is I'm stuck with the movie as a stand-alone, and I'm pretty underwhelmed. I could discuss how it does or doesn't live up to, or down to, the original.

His gadgets include hands that spray toothpaste (Gadget) and fire (RoboGadget), a hat that turns into a helicopter, and legs that extend into long steel stilts, allowing him to leapfrog traffic and cover a lot of ground in a hurry. All he has to say is "Go-go gadget" and then name the gadget he wants, and it materializes, although it can be difficult remembering the right go-go word while falling from the top of a skyscraper. The gimmick with Gadget is that he has been equipped with a body, a suit and (especially) a hat that are all stuffed with gadgets. Matthew Broderick stars, first as a security guard named John Brown, then as a bionic supercop named Inspector Gadget: "Columbo and Nintendo all rolled into one," quips Police Chief Quimby ( Dabney Coleman).īroderick also plays an anti-Gadget look-alike, the bad guy RoboGadget, who impersonates the inspector and sets half the city on fire in an attempt to discredit him.
