The title basically speaks for itself in terms of the subject that's at hand. For example:
*Inspector Gadget-To be honest with you, I haven't actually seen the movie so I have to take somewhat of a benefit of the doubt so to speak. But then again based upon looking over the particular means for advertising, the movie seemingly takes too much liberties that just challenge the interigty of the show. For one thing, the growling and unseen villian Dr "I'll get you next time Gadget, next time!" Claw is seen in the movie and is made into an "actual" character (what's next, a movie on Muppet Babies in which we actually see Nanny). Also from what I hear, Penny & Brian, who played an important role in the TV show, is only reduced to a brief cameo (then again, I suppose they wouldn't be cameos then) in the mist of the shameless advertising.
*Charlie's Angels-This movie is virtually becoming a poster child (along with Wild Wild West and Batman & Robin) for ultimately insulting, empty, and unispired action movies. In the case for Charlie's Angels, the movie for one thing, has little and frequent direction in terms of what tone it wants to bring forth. All that's left is simply a bunch of flat and heavy handed direction, writting, and plotting as the unexicting action scenes simply come off as widow dressing.
*Wild Wild West-You knew that this was going to come up sooner or later. Wild Wild Worst is just a collection of repetitious and extremely heavy-handed and flat jokes about the handicap and the state of African Americans around that particular period. Watching this movie is just like watching money go down the drain. We get to see more and more of a campy type of indulengence that ultimately carry little sigificance over the lame plotting.
*Mission: Impossible 2-The movie is so uneven (not to mention formulaic) underneth the empty characters, that when the movie finally gets to an the action (i.e. guns and explosions), that it almost feels as if a big bulk that wasn't used prior to this was tacked on at the last minute to recover. And don't even get me started in the sheer redundency of the trusty masks (which got more and more laughable and predictable) that everybody seemed to have.
