March 20, 2012The Master of Disguise is really the master. He use the disguise of a funny movie, but is just a sad way to lose time. Rotten.

September 3, 2007overall pretty awful, but I'll give it a decent review for Dana Carvey's impression of Robert Shaw alone.

July 15, 2007The opening title song keeps telling us "This Is Gonna Be Fun" - maybe they're trying to hypnotize us into thinking it's a good movie. It's not.
I enjoyed it for its badness. Dana Carvey plays "Pistachio", the son of a great Italian disuise master, with some of his fathers' ta... read more -
May 6, 2006Idiotic, unfunny, and annoyingly ridiculous and over-the-top The Master of Disguise is a waste of the time of it's creators and it's audience. It is obvious that Dana Carvey is a man with a lot of improvisational talent but his humour is wasted on witless antics and will leave th... read more

February 9, 2011This movie tries a bit too hard to be funny. Even more unfortunate, it seems to have had its humor aimed squarely at 5-year-olds, and comes across as extremely dumb in the process. There is ONE genuinely funny moment, but even tis comes across as contrived and more of a laugh-at ... read more

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
In just over a minute you can see everything that's wrong with this one-joke farce.
August 8, 2002
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly
An awful, stillborn comedy assembled out of rusty spare parts from secret agent movies and run-of-the-mill Saturday Night Live skits. Full Review
August 5, 2002
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper
If The Master of Disguise had been a free cable movie -- well, I still wouldn't have recommended it. Full Review
August 3, 2002
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News
The film contains no good jokes, no good scenes, barely a moment when Carvey's Saturday Night Live-honed mimicry rises above the level of embarrassment. Full Review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Lacking even a hint of humor or a watchable story, Disguise has distinguished itself as the summer's worst movie. Full Review
August 2, 2002
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
The only camouflage Carvey should now be considering is a paper bag to wear over his head when he goes out into public, to avoid being recognized as the man who bilked unsuspecting moviegoers. Full Review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
At times, it actually hurts to watch. Full Review
August 2, 2002
Charles Taylor, Salon.com
Dana Carvey makes a lackadaisical 'comeback' as a man of a thousand faces, none of them funny. Full Review
August 2, 2002
Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel
No amount of nostalgia for Carvey's glory days can disguise the fact that the new film is a lame kiddie flick and that Carvey's considerable talents are wasted in it.
