there's is nothing more i can say about this absolutely pathetic, only for kids, movie than what's in the title. the actors seemed stiff, uninterested, and unemotional. rupert everett was absolutely horrible as dr. claw and broderick was the worst possible actor to be signed on as the crafty inspector we have all grown to love through the cartoon. the movie is based around a diabolical accident that forces a regular cop (broderick) to become a gadget-ridden man out to protect justice. basically the rest of this monotonous film includes crazy, "non" action sequencences, which build up to a "climatic" encounter with claw (everett). along the way, gadget falls in love with a scientist and receives useless advice from his "crackpot" daughter (michelle trachtenberg) and useless dog, brain! fine to see with the kids, but don't expect to savour it on a free saturday night.
