There’s not much to say really. I watched this film as a kid and remember thinking it made me feel gross. So I never watched it again. Until now. And now, at the ripe age of 22, I feel exactly the same as I did when I was a child. The Master of Disguise is the most misguided excuse for a movie I’ve ever seen. It’s so unfortunate that this movie squanders the potential of several significantly talented people. And it’s upsetting that I have to feel so passionately about it, but the truth is this: The Master of Disguise, as of today, is the worst movie I have seen. And I’m sad to admit that. We all hope for winners, this unfortunately isn’t one of them. Go watch Dana Carvey’s specials. Watch Hitman. Watch the other work these people have done. But do it after you listen to this podcast, of course. Featuring Special Guest Star Mickey Stein Roberts from Knowing Nothing!
