His name is supposed to be Dr. Claw, not Sanford Scolex. Also i do like Rupert Everett but he doesn't really match Dr. Claw in any more. This movie gets a lot of things wrong about the show anyway.

Did you know James Earl Jones, Willem Defoe, and Tim Curry were all considered playing as Dr. Claw?

I'm pretty sure that David Kellogg or any of the Walt Disney executives never watched the original Inspector Gadget cartoon from the 1980s!

sure, it wasn't an accurate depiction of Dr. Claw, but on his own he wasn't that bad

i'm not hating on Rupert but casting him as claw is like...well...CASTING DENNIS HOPPER AS BOWSER/KING KOOPA!

Would've worked best if it was an animated feature, but as a live action movie, It could've been in a time capsule.

This was a really stupid movie. Not the worst I've ever seen, but the Critic was right, it's a desperate mess.

Well, what were you expecting from David Kellogg, the director of "Cool as Ice"?

Nothing, so why the hell did anyone tell him he could direct anything aside from commercials? That's what Cool as Ice was, a half-assed Vanilla Ice commercial.

Thankfully, he hasn't directed another movie since this one.

Just like "James and the Giant Peach", I embarrassingly admit that I own this movie and liked it as a kid. But as a teen, I've REALLY began to see it's flaws!

Yeah, but whereas James and the Giant Peach is still one giant piece of enjoyable eye candy, Inspector Gadget is flat-out stupid. Even as a kid, I knew it sucked. Broderick's bland, Everett's way too over the top (And you can see his fucking face while he's Claw! ), next-to-no Penny, stupid sound effects, stupid love interest, stupid evil plot, and stupid jokes. Who told David Kellogg he could direct? He should have taken a hint after Cool as Ice proved uncool with the audience.

So to recap, Dr. Claw isn't called Dr. Claw, he doesn't own an evil terrorist organization called MAD, he sounds less like a monster and more like a fashion critic, and us never seeing him in the show is now replaced with SEEING HIM ALL THE TIME!

"I mean, WOW, did they get ONE thing right? Why did you change so much? Were you afraid that if you stuck too closely to the cartoon that it wouldn’t be taken as seriously? Need I remind you this movie has scenes like this? *Cuts to a later scene where Gadget is inflated and bouncing around a bridge with wacky sound effects added* Yeah, wouldn’t want it to face that!"
