 TV Show gets Decent Update with Style November 21, 2008
A Customer (L.A.)

Mild and missing a beat hear and there; it is as perfect as possible for an update of this comedic Borscht Belt Bond creation. The mood is intact. Carell and Hathaway are hot. My only defense against those who don't like it,...is Don Adams, being in that moment and the writing team, timing and period of theTV show.
That was then, this is now. Picture is digiperfect but I'm getting spoiled by the new HD sound formats; so the best thing I can say about this Dolby track is that I don't have to worry about my neighbors.
I loved this classic remade into a modern version! November 21, 2008

Steve Carrell and Anne Hathaway are perfect in their roles as Maxwell Smart and Agent 99 in the movie version of "Get Smart". This movie is the perfect combination of action and comedy without being too cheesy. I enjoyed the special effects and storyline as well. I felt the acting was great by all cast members as well! My hubby was a huge fan of the "Get Smart" television series and he felt that the movie was the modern version of "Get Smart".
Yep, missed it by that much... November 19, 2008
Jeffrey A. Thompson (Iowa City, IA USA)
I'm a big fan of the original series. It had it all: comedy, romance, political satire, physical comedy and action. The humor was both broad and subtle. The movie captured the broad strokes, but missed the subtle humor. Carrel made the role his own and was very good. Hathaway as 99 worked pretty well. Arkin's role as the chief was good. The physical comedy was good. The romance worked. The relationship between Max and the chief worked. The cone of silence and the other gadgets were excellent. Some of the scenes fell flat. The homage to the car and the shoe phone of the original show was good.
In summary, the movie was good. It missed some of the political satire and subtle humor of the original show, but for a movie made from a TV series it was very good. My wife and I laughed a lot, which is the major test of a movie like this.
Daft & funny spy film November 18, 2008
Chris Wood (UK)
Get Smart is good fun. It never takes itself too seriously and has a good mix of action and comedy. There are some great setpieces, a few fantastic lines and the cast is very impressive. There's also a great bit during a symphony concert that had me in fits of laughter.
Great light entertainment.
Extremely entertaining! November 18, 2008
Michelle L. Beck (Atlanta, Georgia)
Tired of just dealing with paperwork, analyzing intelligence information and being behind the scenes, Analyst Maxwell Smart wants nothing more than to become a Special Agent. And the "Chief" gives him his opportunity when Kaos starts systematically killing Control agents, revealing their identities placing them in danger all over the world. Newly promoted Special Agent 86 (Maxwell Smart), along with his capable partner, the very pretty "Agent 99" (Anna Hathaway) and his trusted and very sexy friend "Agent 23" (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) set out to save the world. Faced with danger and adventure, Smart proves that he is more than an analyst, but a secret agent to be reckoned with.
This movie was extremely entertaining and funny. There were scenes that simply made me laugh out loud (the laser room, skydiving, throwing up in the face piece, or even "The Rock" running into a wall), and Steve Carell made a wonderful Maxwell Smart. And I even think that "The Rock" has a future in comedy. He is showing that he is a well rounded actor. Comedy, romance, drama and action adventure. With all that being said, I enjoyed this movie and think you will too.
