Inspector Gadget

Movie Summary

Released: 1999
Matthew Broderick stars in this live-action adaptation of the popular animated series. When a well-meaning but overly trusting security guard is wounded in an explosion created by the evil Dr. Claw, a beautiful scientist named Brenda (Joely Fisher) takes him under her wing and turns him into a crime-fighting dynamo by replacing his limbs with a wealth of gadgets and gimmicks. Now dubbed Inspector Gadget, the once-naïve guard can fulfill his dream of becoming a crime-fighting detective, and as he investigates his first case - namely, who blew him up he finds out that the man responsible also killed Brenda's father. Now it's up to the Inspector to find the fiend's identity and bring him to justice, using his homegrown bionic powers to crack the case. Inspector Gadget co-stars Rupert Everett, Dabney Coleman, Andy Dick, and Cheri Oteri

How can IG fans hate this movie I thought it was pretty good. However I have to admit IG2 was closer to the cartoon but it can't top off the first. Also I don't care if the gadget mobile was a talking cadiliac or if Claw's face was showing this movie was great anyway!

I liked them both but Inspector Gadget 2 was non-canonical. In the first one, he has a love interest on Brenda Bradford and then in the second one, he has love interest in G2.
