Matthew Broderick: From Here To Infinity
Film Credits

Inspector Gadget

Inspector GadgetThe greatest hero ever assembled.
It's a comedy with a thousand moving parts! Wowser -- it's Walt Disney Pictures' live-action family comedy "Inspector Gadget." Based on the popular cartoon character of the same name, "Inspector Gadget" is a wild and quirky adventure comedy about a somewhat-naive security guard who is literally blown to pieces by the nefarious Dr. Claw. A sexy scientist named Brenda Bradford rebuilds him into a man of many talents and accessories. Using his vast array of grafted-on gizmos to bust bad guys, Gadget is out to fulfill his dream of becoming the world's top detective. As he penetrates Riverton City's darkest underworld, he unwittingly discovers that the man who blew him apart also happens to be the villain who murdered Brenda's father! The often-clueless Inspector Gadget must use all his common sense and robotic parts to crack the case -- and save not only his good name, but the world.
