Mr. Magoo Audience Reviews

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Micitype Pretty Good
Console best movie i've ever seen.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Predrag I love the animated version of Mr. Magoo and was disappointed by the film version. The character has come under fire for mocking the disabled because of his deafness but he really is the hero each time and it makes a change for a hero to not be in full compliment of his faculties. The film tries but fails to capture the true magic of the bumbler from the cartoons but Leslie Nielsen looks uncomfortable here as more serious roles suit him better. Mr Magoo was always a two joke affair: 1) He couldn't see well and 2) he always made little quips and remarks to himself. Not something that would lend itself easily to an hour+ motion picture. In this case, the late Nielsen's charisma and a few decent gags make this run-of-the-mill, late 90's Disney-cartoon-adaptation a little more tolerable than most of its despised peers.Overall rating: 6 out of 10.
FlashCallahan Mr.Magoo is a nearsighted millionaire, who refuses to wear glasses and therefore always gets into trouble. During a museum robbery he accidentally gets a priceless gem, and begins to pave the way for the criminals whose idea was to steal the gem. But two federal agents Stupak and Anders lead the manhunt for Mr.Magoo himself.....What else would you expect from a film with Leslie Nielsen based on a cartoon?Every film he made after 1988 he played the same character, and here it's just Frank Drebin for kids.It's fun stuff though, Nielsen getting into scrapes that would usually cause any other human being to perish, and then the bad guys following his every footsteps, and ending up in water, cake on their face, being chased by a primate.Continue this for ninety minutes, add Malcom Macdowell as the villain, and you have a comedy that was rife in the late nineties.Dreck, but utterly watchable for all the wrong reasons...
Frogdog137 I left the theater, and I was only 10 years old. That's how bad it sucked. The plot was horrid and the acting was worse. Leslie Nielson should be ashamed of himself and so should the person who made this movie. I was only 10 years old when I went to see this catastrophe with a friend and even at that young, innocent age I did not laugh once at the movie. We (me and my friend) still laugh about how bad the movie was. We ended up going into the 'R' movie my parents were in. Bottom line -- this flick was fricking bad. Mr. Magoo -- more like Mr. Ma-who? This movie could have scarred me for life had I watched the popular cartoon on television as a child but luckily I had never seen it, so i was spared the agony but I will never get back those precious minutes of my life that I wasted.
elsterusa Now, I don't think this is a good movie. There are more bad parts in this movie than good, most definitely. I just don't understand why everybody is giving this movie a 1. I laughed once in a while. (Nothing big, mind you, just short giggles.) I did not expect anything good out of this movie at all, so I didn't walk out of the theater that disappointed. I guess if I can love Escanaba in da Moonlight, I can tolerate Mr. Magoo. The two movies have similar types of humor, it's just that, well, Leslie Nielsen was not born to be in movies. It seems that goes for most of the other people in this movie's cast (except Malcolm McDowell and, perhaps, Jennifer Garner. 5/10
