Today is the start of Cristina Wehner's and Silver Screening's Movie Scientist Blogathon!!
This movie is actually the movie where I decided to be a movie critic! I was telling my sister all about the things that I know about this movie, and she said, "You should have a movie review blog." That's how I'm here.
My guarantee: On ALL of my reviews there are NO spoilers unless it says so. But the comments might have spoilers.
Inspector Gadget (1999):
When John Brown gets into an accident in order to save him the doctors have to put in a lot of machinery. Brenda Bradsford finds this is the perfect excuse put to use her father's plan for a 'robo-cop', a living man and a robot at the same time.
Costumes: 8, there is a bit where some one's pants get pulled down, and where someone is just wearing a hospital nightgown.
My favorite: I don't know why, but I have always like this of Penny's.

That's awesome that this movie and your sister inspired you to blog! :) It looks chock full of scientists and a good cast. She definitely sounds like a good scientist! I'm realizing that there are more good scientists than I had supposed in films.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the introduction to this film and for joining in the blogathon!
I hadn't really thought of it until then, but I decided it would be fun! :)
DeleteOh yes it is! And they all have such personallity! It was really hard to choose one to write about!! Yes, same here! This blogathon is introducing so many!
Oh yes! Thank you so much for hosting this!
That's a cool story of your sister inspiring you!:)
ReplyDeleteI have not seen this movie, but I'm pretty sure my mom has. Anyway, good review!:)
Yes, it really is! :D
DeleteThere are a few 'iffy' bits, but overall it is really good and really funny. Thank you! :)
I was pleasantly surprised by "Inspector Gadget". I was expecting to hate it, but it's waaay better than I thought it would be. It has a terrific cast (especially Rupert Everett as Dr Claw), and some pretty decent effects.
ReplyDeleteI liked that this was the film that inspired you to review films. This must have special significance for you.
Thanks for joining the blogathon, and for bringing Gadget with you! :)
Same here! When my sister first checked it out from the library, I thought it looked weird, but I ended up loving it! Then years later, I knew almost everything about it! The cast is amazing, Rupert Everett is the best Dr. Claw ever!!
DeleteIt is, I was waiting for an excuse to review this and as soon as I saw this blogathon, I knew I wanted to do this movie for it!!!
Yes! Thank you so much for hosting this blogathon!!!! :)
I didn't really like this movie, it just wasn't my type. But great review! You did a really good job!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it isn't for some people. My sisters and I like it, but my dad doesn't. Thanks, Gray!!! :D
DeleteFunny, my "sister" was the final push to get me onto the blogosphere too!
ReplyDeleteThis movie looks interesting....I'll have to look it up!
