- If Mr. Magoo can’t see anything, does that mean he can’t see how bad this movie is, either?
Originally aired on May 30, 2012
Mr. Magoo is a 1997 American comedy film directed by Hong Kong film veteran Stanley Tong (his sole English language film) and written by Pat Proft and Tom Sherohman. A live-action film adaptation of UPA's cartoon of the same name, it was produced by Walt Disney Pictures, and starred Leslie Nielsen as the title character, alongside Kelly Lynch, Matt Keeslar, Nick Chinlund, Stephen Tobolowsky, Ernie Hudson, Jennifer Garner and Malcolm McDowell.

"This was during Disney's run of horrible live action movies."
Aged like fine wine.
Lol now it's horrible live action reboots of classic animated films.
Has Disney EVER made good live-action movies?
Mary Poppins + Bedknobs and Broomsticks: Are we a joke to you?
@@joshslater2426 Mary Poppins never saw, but it had animated features in it. Bedknobs and Broomsticks never heard of. Let me word it like this. Did Disney ever have made good live action films AFTER the 50's (besides Homeward Bound?)
@@tencents6Flight of the Navigator was pretty good. So was Honey, I Shrunk The Kids.
"Delicious, yummy blood"
That explains it. Mr. Magoo wasn't actually blind, at all; he was a vampire, and the sun was just constantly in his eyes!
David Miller illuminati confirmed!!
But why he isn’t sparkling.....

Am I the only one who thinks of Ragu when I hear that name?
@@Em_Elizabeth Y'mean Radu, no?
I always thought of Mr. Magoo as an elderly Elmer Fudd who got over his speech impediment, retired from hunting and grew more blind over time
In that case his luck really turned around, he went from incompetent Hunter who couldn't shoot a rabbit to save his life, now he's even older and in worse physical condition but makes it out okay every single time.
Wouldn't he be Elder Fudd then
@@opalyasu7159huh? That makes absolutely no grammatical sense.
@@OscarsBadFurDay it was a portmanteau of Elmer Fudd and the word Elder
@@opalyasu7159 I’m stupid…. 🤦
Coming next summer:
Mr. Magoo VS. Daredevil
I hope the have a car race!
Dylan Paterson How about Mr Magoo vs Amelia Bedilia
Shanethefilmmaker oh yea totally
Shanethefilmmaker i can totally see that

I love Leslie Nielsen. This may not have been his best movie, but he makes me laugh no matter what. We miss you, dude!
Edit: Holy crap, this movie is on Disney Plus!
I guess you're saying "don't see" this movie
Seth G good one, i wonder if anyoneslse thought of that
I *see* what you did there.
No way, that's a new revolution for me....
budum bump
Mr. Marowak
LOL, good one! 😂
The fucking ending of this review. It is GENIUS.
"oh what do we have here? its a pitchfork with your name on it; ere let me give it back too ya."
ɷɷɷ I Have Watchedddd Thissss Movieee Leakedddd Versionnnn Here : - t.co/EQMyZQlo5e
24AMPER would a crazy man kill a little orphan girl because she the queen of the moon people
He made a good cartoon of Mr.Magoo, without the friggin visuals!
adam wills yes. Yes he would!
Too bad Doug didn't seem to recognize who played the FBI agent. I would've loved to have seen a Ned Ryerson joke.
“Phil Conners! Ned Ryerson?BANG!”
Whoa-ho-ho! Watch out for that first step! It's a doozy!
the ending was awesome, poor poor Nostalgia Critic, "would a crazy man strangle an orphan girl because he thinks shes queen of the moon people" *punch* "yes,yes he would" i cant stop laughing
Rexy Rex I loved the chicken porn joke, and the Disney one...
Is the “queen of the moon people” a reference to something?

1:09 love how this still applies to Disney nowadays
6:19 Thor and Loki's missing brother.
HHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! XD
Funny you should say that...
He's adopted.
LOOOKKKIIII!!!!!!!!!!
This movie is so stupid... I watched it a lot as a child but thankfully our VHS tape got swallowed by the VCR. Guess it was doing us a favour.
Alexandria Thorne You know a movie is bad when the thing you're using to play it gains sentient life for only the purpose of destroying it.
I remember putting it on for the simple reason we didn't have that many movies. It hasn't grown on me since... lol
Shanethefilmmaker In that case... well done, Mr. Magoo. Well done.
VCR :PUT THAT COOKIE- er I mean VHS DOWN!!! *chomp chomp*
Klint Karas vhs make me strong
The chicken and fish scene omg lmaooo 💀💀😭
Yep. 90s live action Disney movies were a bit of a bland mess. Howard and Daniel deserved better...
I actually miss these types of jokes in modern day Nostalgia Critic episodes.
Warner Bros or Disney?
Disney
😭😭😭
@@TheAlps36 noooooo 😭😭💀
1:06 *_"This was during their especially bad run of horrible live action movies…"_* And whaddaya know, they're now doing it again, and every other company is following suit, so now there should be a new term: *_"DISNEY CAN'T LEARN SHIT!"_*
Dude, your Letterman is awesome.
When he did that i just laughed
That's pretty much every talk show host ever.
What about that Michael Clarke Duncan impression at 2:04? Spot on.
I agree, Zach Lathouris.
Also, can't help it saying,
Play me off, Paul!-Nostalgia Critic before his dance routine
ik
The line the wedding “It wouldn’t last-I’ve never loved you!” Actually made me laugh. Admittedly I didn’t have to sit through the whole movie to get there, but I did think that was funny.
Fun fact: Back in 1993, Steven Spielberg was trying to get the rights to many cartoons to adapt into live action. (Including The Flintstones and Casper.) But he also attempted to get the rights to Inspector Gadget and Mr. Magoo before Disney got a hold of them around 1995/1996. And he apparently wanted Danny DeVito for the title role. Shame we're not in that timeline. 😞
6:18 Actually Mr. Magoo does preformed in the cartoons. Especially in the TV specials. The great example would be his acting of Scrooge in the Christmas Carol special. and the best part was that Mr. Magoo is very good at being Scrooge.
You mean Scrooge?
It was even entire Mr. Magoo cartoon series Where he performs as various literary characters
I WAS FROZEN TODAY!
Fruit Smax OF COURSE!
FUCKING BUBBLES!
Let it go
Y' know! For kids!
Sparkle Sparkle Sparkle
16:15 I would call that 'jumping the shark' but I'd be insulting the term.
The thing is, actors gotta make money, it's a job. You can't sit and wait around for a good movie, especially when so few good movies come out per year. Then there's the fact that some movies with great concepts get ruined due to poor execution anyway. 😣💦
The "I'll put you in the plane myself!" Joke
😄
8:39 Marvel, please sue something.
Disney owns marvel
Its mr magoo who cares if thats the case
Um Black Widow is a type of Spider
MORTAL KOMBAT PS2 FAN Speaking of spiders, I’m surprised they didn’t just make her another “Spider” person.
My god, why are people so FUCKING STUPID?!?!?!
If there’s one nice thing you can say about this move, it’s that Leslie Nielsen was the best choice to play Mr. Magoo. Yes it’s a horrible screenplay but Leslie Nielsen can make even the worst screenplay a little better. Not a lot, but a little.
is malcom mcdowell forced to do shitty movies because if he doesnt do them, theyre gonna put him in a straight jacked and force his eyelids open?
Lol nice
.............
I stopped watching NC years ago, but I feel that McDowell has been harassing Doug every day for years beacuse of what you said here
12:06 Aaand that's how Mr. Eggplant turned into Dr. Eggman.
You know... that makes no sense but at the same time it as well might.
goo goo ga joob
You know theres a new Mr.Magoo animated movie?
Im just going to leave this here... if you want to touch it
I think an animated version should be better,because the slapstick wouldn't be as limited.Then again,that depends on what the creators can do.
As the ZZ Top would say: "I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole"
An animated movie? What's it called.
@@KyrstOak I have absolutely no clue it was one of those movies that i can definitely say i saw but i can just remember very specific timy things
@@elcolo4405 Bummer. I tried looking it up, but all that came up was Mr Magoo's Christmas Carol, which aired in 1962.
Mr. Magoo actually DOES sing in "Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol".
Ah, now I understand why Garner enjoyed beating up a blind guy in Daredevil.
And considering Disney has owned Marvel for many years by the time that series was released, this movie also explains why Disney only cares about their animation facilities or the theme parks when they talk about the 1990's.
Mr. Magoo was not blind He is nearsighted.
I grew up with the Christmas Carol version so I just assumed he was clumsy. During the show he doesn’t have sight problems. It makes sense why he’d touch the Ghost of Christmas Future’s robe though
8:07 From the universe of Disney’s Mr. Magoo comes…
Fish: An Origin Story, coming soon to a theater near you.
8:43 Exactly what first came to my mind the first time I heard it. OMG I AM AS FILTHY AS THE CRITIC.
I actually love this movie. It's a way better Inspector Gadget movie than the Inspector Gadget movie. Think about it, The Main Character bumbles into something way over his head, while the crime is taken care of behind the scenes, or indirectly by the Main Character.
The bit about the wind machine at the opera house had me in tears.
If Magoo is so rich, why doesn't he get eye surgery?
Because he’s too stubborn to admit his problem.
"I'll let you on the plane myself" I about died of laughter!
i would pay for a nostalgia critic talk show
16:35 that was actually from a reissue of the film that came about because people who were visually impaired actually publicly complained about the film.
I found the show's idea of a blind guy who gets into a lot of shenanigans without even realizing it amusing, but I was always happy that it all worked out for him in the end.
Mr. Critic, I believe you skipped a line. don't worry I got you. what is with this movie and defacing animal corpeses?
The "Pteranodon" in the museum is so cartoony and inaccurate it doesn't belong in a museum.
Critic: *fill in the blank* ISN'T FUNNY!
Also Critic: *totally lacks self-awareness*
Pot, meet kettle.
I think the comedy of Mr. Magoo comes from the situations he’s in. In his perspective, you don’t know what’s gonna happen, and yet the bad things you think are gonna happen, don’t. The joke is that usually someone blind would get hurt in these wacky situations. (No offence to blind people)
That’s exactly where the comedy comes
Does anyone else think cartoon Magoo looks like Palpatine? They really should have gotten Ian McDiarmid for this part(joking, I don't want him to have to suffer through this..)
that cartoon iris joke is one of your best XD
Am I the only one who misses these types of jokes in modern day Nostalgia Critic episodes?
The earliest versions of Mr. Magoo were funny because it wasn't just his bad eyesight.
The initial point was that he stubbornly refused to ADMIT he needed glasses, and carried on despite clearly not being able to see. Laughing at someone for having poor eyesight is weak, Laughing at someone for stubbornly refusing to acknowledge poor eyesight, THAT's funny because I think many of us would hate to admit growing old...
Wow.. after seeing this review, I think I finally get Nostalgia Critic. Like the movies he reviews, some are good, some are bad, some are just okay even though there was obvious effort put in... but then you find that one. And it is AMAZING, in part because you didn't expect much out of it. This review has it all. I laughed at 0:16 , I cried when I was reminded Leslie Nielson died years ago.. and the mystery of what the tattoo at 13:15 is will haunt me 'til my dying day.
15:13 was this the original "YOU ARE GOING TO BRAZIL!"?
Mmmario you are going to Brazil. 😂
"doug and rob waker"
Phonetic spelling
What I can't believe is the movie was directed by Stanley Tong who directed Jackie Chan movies... like some of the really good ones: Supercop, First Strike, Rumble in the Bronx
1:42 Leslie Nielsen? Like Airplane Leslie Nielsen?1:44 Kelly Lynch? Like Drugstore Cowboy Kelly Lynch?1:53 Stephen Tobolowsky? Like Groundhog Day Stephen Tobolowsky
How many talented actors and comedians going to humiliate themselves by being in this movie?
Leslie Nielsen was willing to do this? Surely you can't be serious.
don't let the emoji people know about the eggplant scene
EHW2 🍆🍆🍆🍆🍆
OH MY GOD THEY'VE FOUND OUT! ABANDON THE INTERNET AMEDIATLY!
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
BOYCOTT THE INTERNET! GO, GO! RUN!
GO TO THE RICEFEILDS
1:07 oh boy, we werent ready for what came next
You forgot to mention the fact that this movie insulted so many visually impaired people, Disney pulled it from theaters after just 2 WEEKS.
Wow. Fucking wow, Walt.
Re: "It's as if in the Popeye movie they started with the cartoon with the original voice but then cut to something completely different."
Um... that's exactly what they did with the Popeye movie. It started with the animated Popeye voiced by Jack Mercer, then the movie cuts to live action with Robin Williams. Seriously, Channel Awesome needs to hire a researcher or fact-checker or something.
that Robin Williams Popeye movie started two really bad trends: Live action versions of cartoons that don't seem to understand the cartoons they're based on and Robin Williams being in terrible movies
16:12 Actually, it would be kinda cool to make a raft that doubles as a weak glider, in case you go off a waterfall... :P
Very funny animated fish and chicken reacting to mr magoo from Disney can’t stop laughing 😂
I remember the time of innocence, when I was a kid and actually loved this movie.
1:56 Isn’t that exactly what happens in the Robin Williams Popeye movie?
I agree Robin did the Popeye in the movie, while Jack (the at-the-time recent voice actor for Popeye overall) did the cartoon in the beginning.
I think Mr. Magoo is funny... maybe that's just cause I loved him as a kid.
seam
Weak sense of humor
KidSnivy96 Probably because I was a child when I first watched him. Like I said.
When I saw this in the 90s, I thought it was hilarious, but there were issues that I thought were odd even as a kid. Thank, Nostalgia Critic!
Interesting that Ernie Hudson did this around the time he was on OZ, my favorite show of all time.
To be honest, the live action Mr. Magoo movie would had work if Patrick Stewart was Mr. Magoo. He would fit the role perfectly. Then again, I don't think he would want to tarnish his name recognition being in this shitty live action adaptation - especially if being made by Disney.
5:05 "the CIA has no jurisdiction on american soil"
...What?
Yeah that made zero sense.
Thats like saying the RAF have no jurisdiction in Britian.
Warchief1223 - The CIA is a foreign intelligence agency. They are only authorized to spy on foreign powers, at least officially. It is illegal for them to spy on Americans in America.
That's why they use the NSA for the big domestic spying scandal. Hahaha, uuugh.
The FBI is supposed to do domestic intelligence and, prior to 9/11, not share their intelligence with the CIA. But the careful division of powers has blurred a bit since then, in hopes of preventing another 9/11.
In short, they actually got that bit right.
@@bradypostma3708 Goddammit Man! Are you trying to explain something on the Internet? You crazy or what?!?!?
@@thefreakmachine - I like explaining. People will probably not read, not believe, or not care (or all three), but the best combat against misinformation is to provide accurate information. If everyone who knew things was doing their damnedest to flood the internet with the truth, maybe we wouldn't be so buried in bull all the time.
So, am I crazy? Yeah, pretty much.
Fun fact: the composer for this movie Michael Tavera is responsible for one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever, used in the Land Before Time sequels.
So did Doug spell his and Rob's last name wrong on purpose? I'm inclined to say yes, as it appears 3 times, though I'm not sure what the joke is.
Nope, it’s just another typo that slipped by Doug
@@Pufstnutbrainofficial oh my god dude this comment is 7 years old
"Wait, Warner Bros. or Disney? Disney. Nooooooo!"
3 years later the joke is reversed.
This year, Mr Magoo Reboot got promoted in Boomerang.
Nah, I still prefer WB over another averange Disney Studio film.
@The Eyes Of A True Demon- Anomaly Productions Agreed! I've never watched the Disney Live-Action remakes, but the originals are fine!
Also, knowing Disney bought out Marvel, Star Wars, and now 20th Century Fox, makes me respect them even less!
13:15 Well, thanks to Disney+ and HD TV, i can confirm for NC's sake of trying to look at the tattoo when the video itself even if it's in HD from 2012 was blurry at the time that the tattoo Magoo that he drew really quick was in fact a frog with a cigar in his mouth wearing a black hat and holding a gun (or 2 guns if i'm wrong) with a fist on it. I think. ^^
Pepe the Frog? so Magoo is a Trumpazoid? now I really hate him!
That actually sounds quite awesome tbh - can you see that logo somewhere on the internet?
I can't be the only one that heard the NC's Skype go off at the 11:38 mark, am I...? I mean you hear it loudly slightly under his voice, it's hard to miss.
I always suspected that the movie version of Mr.Magoo was actually Loki in disguise. Everything makes so much sense if you accept that as a fact.
That David Letterman Show parody was so spot on.
4:54 my exact reaction when I saw Ernie Hudson.
Jennifer Garner should thank her lucky stars that Elektra had worse reviews than Mr. Magoo
0:29 Nostalgia Critic is upset that a blind old man isn't suffering to bring him humor. Doug = Confirmed Sadist?
15:48 why did she faint? Was an old man covered in suds that scary?
With movies like this coming out no wonder Marik from Yugioh Abridged went nuts.
He accidentally cuts a live electrical wire? Kinda dark, don't you think?
7:18 Why would they add that? It's so random.
What do got against the candle?
"I guess Disney finds it funny when women are hurt"
Why wouldn't it be? You think just because they're women they're immune to slapstick? That only furthers the 'women can't be funny' stereotype.
Nate Well, I don't mean seriously hurt, more like a prat fall or 'harmless' physical comedy, nothing that would lead to serious injury. But this isn't the only time I've seen him complain about it, which leads me to think that he may have a double standard when it comes to slapstick between men and women.
Nate I agree
Are you being serious right now.
You can't be trying to turn this random line about a lame scene into a gender thing, you just can't.
You're all giant morons. Get those sticks out of your asses.
Most stereotypes are based on fact.
Not even Leslie Nielsen can save this movie.
Fun fact: The National Federation of the Blind also passed a resolution at its 1997 convention asking Disney to stop making a live-action *Mr. Magoo* movie.
*Guess that didn't matter to Disney*
Mr. Magoo
Spy Hard
Repossessed
Dracula Dead and Loving It
Wrongfully Accused
Why was the 90s so cruel to Leslie Nielsen?
Because he hit it big with the triple whammy of Airplane, Police Squad and The Naked Gun Trilogy and got picked up by people wanting to capitalise on his new career as a comedian not realising that the reason he was funny in those was because he acted 100% serious whilst in ridiculous situations. I’d say the only movies in the late stages of his career that got this were sadly Scary Movie 3 and Superhero Movie the former because The Zucker’s were involved and knew how to use him and the latter because he was parodying Uncle Ben and it was just kinda funny seeing him say “don’t forget the bitches” whilst Kevin Hart listed off perks of being a superhero
And the 00s were hardly any better towards him:
2001: A Space Travesty
Scary Movie 3 & 4
An American Carol
Stan Helsing
Spanish Movie
Leslie Nielsen really had an odd career - there are not many actors that rose to such fame and prominence despite starring in so many terrible movies and so few good ones.🙈🤣
But the true question remains...can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
Rest in peace Leslie Neilsen and Jim Backus.
17:26 You can hear a pen drop.
Don't worry, Critic. Ernie Hudson kicks all the asses in Transformers Prime. He plays an agent who serves as liaison to the Autobots.
tfwiki.net/wiki/William_Fowler
The Nostalgia Critic was right about Mr. Magoo. Jennifer Garner maybe okay, but someone who played the main character stinks!
Critic thinks that in the earlier review of The Flintstones live action movie, he thinks it sucked, but in the review of Mr Magoo, the film sucked balls. If the Nostalgia Critic would review a movie produced by 20th Century Studios starring Selena Gomez called Ramona and Beezus, what would everyone say about it? Nothing
else. Exactly!
6:52 okay that part was legit funny
I had 13 or 14 years when I saw that in the theatres and as a brazilian, I don't think I was ever so offended as when I saw my country being shown as they showed. It isn't because of the "bad part" of the country, it's the laziness of doing a little research and throwing every (already dated by that time) stereotype at the same time.
Giant tarantulas and hanging snakes in Rio de Janeiro? Rumba dancing?? Spanish architecture??? Rio right next to Iguaçu Falls???? A f*kng mandrill????? Come on that's an african monkey!!!
10:37 to 10:45 oh look hes doing the Chicken Dance
"Yo I'm Popeye n shiet" KILLED me
Honestly I've never seen this movie, but the cast is super talented...
13:45 OH THIS MOVIE! I remember the sauna and the skii bike!
Critic: "WHY WON'T YOU DIE!!?!?"
Magoo: "NANOMACHINES SON!!!!!!"
At least this isn’t the one where mr Magoo teaches you about the “Indians”
10:35 LOL Family Guy chicken
4:47
Is-Is that the sneezey guy who's allergic to cats from that movie " Garfield "?!? What the hell?!? 😬
i hope you never stop making videos nostalgic critic you are utterly AWESOME
Kelly Lynch turned down the main role in Basic Instict which later went to Sharon Stone, yet she said yes to this movie. I’m at a lost for words.
