burnadrenaline The Master of Disguise is not the worst movie ever made, but it is very very bad. It is a family/kid's movie so I try not to be really mean because I watched it as an adult. However, there are so many things in this movie that are bad and a lot of them are hard to ignore even then. What is really bad about this movie is it's not "all in" on being a kid's movie nor does it market itself especially well to an adult audience. For instance, jokes about Al Pachino and butt measurements are fine, for adults, but children will not get them. Dana Carvey's lead is almost too simple. For example, he channels the energy needed to impersonate people well by simply chanting, "become another person" or "become someone else", kids will get it, but I think even children would prefer something a little more cryptic and clever. One thing I will say, on the positive is the flatulence gag. As an adult it's not funny but the running gag with the villain laughing himself until flatulence would probably be very funny to a kid. The most confusing thing about this whole movie is the "blooper reel". There are entire sketches in the reel that look as if they put in almost as much effort into as the actual movie, it wasn't very long, why not put them in? I'm serious, this is a short movie that probably has the longest blooper reel in history. In conclusion, this one is painful. However, it's not just boring like "Super Mario Brothers" nor is it a complete waste of time like "Disaster Movie", so I give it a 3.
gavin6942 An Italian waiter (Dana Carvey) fights off a criminal mastermind (Brent Spiner) with his inherited powers of disguise.First of all, this film features an awful George W. Bush disguise. Sure, Carvey did a good job on senior, but apparently not junior? Was it that hard to get makeup that could pull this off? I entered this film expecting something awful. The reviews are bad, the IMDb rating is very low, and it just has a poor reputation. For a while, I could not understand it, as it was rather humorous at times. And Brent Spiner... we need more films with him. Yet, as it went on, it got worse and worse...Maybe this is a movie like "Freddy Got Fingered" that requires multiple viewings to really get the surreal, abstract humor. But I do not think so. More likely, it just did not have a good script, and it is understandable that Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler would pass on it.
williams-joshua-83 When Dana produced this movie, he wanted one that his kids could see without there being anything bad in it. When it came out, I was 18. Even though I knew it was going to be a kids movie, I still wanted to see it because of Dana Carvey. Being a kids movie and knowing his motivation, I wasn't expecting some blockbuster comedy that apparently most of the other critics of this movie were. It's a silly stupid kids movie with ridiculous slap stick! If you go into it expecting anything more than that last sentence, you are going to be disappointed. Otherwise, prepare for some good belly laughs! I came on here today to look up this movie again because a line popped into my head. If I had access to my parents' DVD collection, I'd be sitting down to watch it with my little girl tonight!!!
byou144 This is the Worst movie that I have ever seen! What a waste of time, could have been folding & matching socks. I emailed Dana Carvey to get my $6 back. This should be in the IMDb's Worst 100, near the absolute bottom 5. A man like Dana Carvey should have never done this film. Wouldn't waste a match to burn the original tape to prevent future watching. Rating this a minus 2 stars. This movie lacks any funny bits, direction, or a reason to stay awake. I took my son, age 12, to see this movie since he like TMNT's movies. Stay with the Teenage turtle movies. I expected to the appeal to kids, boys especially, and to adults with Mr. Carvey being in this flick. Not so, my son even wanted to leave movie after about 30-40 minutes in. Thought it would be better, failed. This clearly was the conversation in the Sony corporate 11th floor office,"Hey we have too much money into this piece of S%%# film, we have to release to try to re-coop what we paid Dana"
