Director: Alex Zamm

Summary: Claw succeeds in his attempt to escape from Riverton prison and now Inspector Gadget, along with his female robot G2, are hot on his heels...

French Stewart takes over the go-go gadgets for Matthew Broderick in this sequel to the 1999 hit. In it, Inspector Gadget has once again fallen out of favour with Chief Quimby after a series of mishaps just as Claw stages a daring prison break. On the run from the law, Claw has hatched a diabolical plan that will go down as the crime of the century just as Riverton's mayor introduces the new G2, an all-robot female crime-fighter who represents the new wave of gadget law enforcement. Seemingly obsolete, Gadget rounds up Brian, Penny, and the Gadgetmobile to catch Claw and prove he's still the number one gadget cop on the force.

Inspector Gadget 2sees the unlikely detective with higher-tech gadgets and more special effects. French Stewart (from TV's Third Rock from the Sun) replaces Matthew Broderick as the bumbling detective in a plot that revolves around the glitch-ridden Gadget being replaced by a completely robotised female. Parent Trap's Elaine Hendrix does what little she can with the one-dimensional role of "G2". Still, Gadget falls for his rival and the pair team up with his smart-as-a-whip niece Penny and her brainy beagle for a showdown with Claw.

Where Broderick struggled to humanise the caricature of an inept detective in the 1999 original, Stewart doesn't even try. Instead he plays Gadget as a cartoon with endless over-the-top theatrics. The enhanced special effects may placate young viewers, but without the comedy of the original, that's small comfort. --Kimberly Heinrichs
