Inspector Gadget (1999) *

Directed by David Kellogg. With Matthew Broderick, Rupert Everett and Joely Fisher. A lame (though extremely fast-paced) kiddie "Robocop" rip-off, with Everett at his usual debonair best playing the villain. It's like that obligatory scene in every James Bond movie where Q shows off his latest high-tech gizmos, but stretched to an hour-and-a-half.
