Wiki.
Inspector Gadget 2 (sometimes called Inspector 2 Gadget and IG2) is a 2003 American superhero comedy film released direct-to-video on VHS and DVD on March 11, 2003 as a standalone sequel to the 1999 film Inspector Gadget. Based on the 1983 cartoon series created by DIC Entertainment, it was made three years after Disney lost the rights to DIC Entertainment, as Disney currently owns the live-action film rights to Inspector Gadget.
Unlike the first film (which has a serious and darker tone and received a PG rating), Inspector Gadget 2 received a G rating and is considered a more faithful adaptation of the original animated series; the characters' personalities were altered to more closely match those of their cartoon counterparts and Doctor Claw's face is never shown in full. Additionally, Gadget and Claw are never referred to as "John Brown" and "Sanford Scolex", their respective civilian names from the first film (though Claw's communicator is still labeled as "Scolex Industries"; Claw also reveals to his minions that all his assets, including his "multi-million-dollar high-rise evil headquarters", were confiscated by the police following his arrest in the previous film). Critics praised the cast and faithfulness to the source material but criticized the visual effects, writing, and humor. Some critics considered the film to be slightly better than the first.
None of the actors from the 1999 film reprised their roles, except for D. L. Hughley, who returned as the voice of the Gadgetmobile.
