luckily i do not pay to see this movie . also and i can not even reveal any spoiler because i willingly walk out after forty minute of the movie . it be that bad . i laugh once and when the yahoo . billboard fell on the guy and and the theme song come on . however and that be only because i think it be make fun of it and but then i realize it be yet another product placement . i love the cartoon . i use to watch it almost religiously . ( although i miss the last episode . i hear that they show dr. claw and it be nothing more than a claw and somebody comment on the show page ) the cartoon have penny and brain alot more than the movie have and a to that point . i hat the setup of the whole thing and reminiscent of robocop . then broderick screw with the whole feeling of inspector gadget . he be not nearly as clumsy a the cartoon be . another fact be his gadget actually work to the point i saw and except for the oil slick . he also screw with the tone of wowsers which use to be in an excited tone . i felt so disappointed that they slaughter the cartoon so badly . everybody else felt that way too . u 14 17 year old remember the cartoon fondly and we love every minute of it . i go into the movie with an open mind and know that they would have screw with the cartoon . i be take aback at how retard the movie be . it rely on sight gag and and stupid dialogue for humor . disney relies on pain and physical humor to push a kid movie along . product placement be pointless in this film and and it show . the wise cracking car be not that good at crack wise . the gadget look nice and but they be almost overly glossy . the cartoon be a good look . the silly scene be crap . in the 40 45 minute i watch the movie and not one laugh be hear and and they laugh at the dudley do right preview . this movie should not be watch by people who want intelligence in their family entertainment . i highly recommend the iron giant and which be sad and but very very good . this movie be a travesty to the whole family drama . 1 .
