Yes, it's true; Don Adams's Maxwell Smart act is little more than shtick, but marvelous shtick it is, and on Get Smart! with its half-hour doses of high-tech hooliganism, straight Bond parody, and uproarious slapstick, he made his mark as one of the more memorable comic figures of 1960s television. You wouldn't necessarily bet that Adams's trademark moves--deadpan mock-seriousness, smart-alecky catchphrases, and elastic faces--would translate well to the big screen; truth is, though, he's no more irritating than Rodney Dangerfield, Bill Murray, or any of the other comic leads of the early 1980s. In The Nude Bomb, the first (and only) Maxwell Smart movie, our secret agent 86 battles a mad KAOS scientist who possesses a fiendish weapon: one which will destroy the world's supply of clothing. Joined by several attractive compatriots (not, alas, Barbara Feldon, whose ultra-hip Agent 99--the crucial foil for the hyperactive Smart--is sorely missed), the hapless spy has 48 hours to confound the evil plot. Several hilarious premises, including a plan to render the weapon ineffective by wearing food, are adeptly exploited through winning and well-timed sight gags. Recommended not only to fans of Get Smart! but to those who appreciate high-spirited '80s comedy as well. --Miles Bethany
Description
Get smart with the most bumbling - yet undeniably cool - spy ever! Join Don Adams as Maxwell Smart (aka Agent 86) of the original Get Smart TV series in The Nude Bomb! Agent 86 is assigned to battle an evil villain who is threatening to drop a "nude bomb" capable of destroying all the fabric in the world. With only 48 hours, some voluptuous assistants, and his questionable spy skills to help him, Maxwell Smart certainly has his hands full trying to save the world from severe nakedness! The Nude Bomb is a hilarious spoof that is sure to leave you in stitches.

Would You Believe.....Max Smart Is Back;without 99?! November 9, 2008
Silky Greensleeves
This 1980 film marked the Return of Don Adams,as Max Smart Agent 86.Don is hilarious,as usual,in this semi-sequel to the Tv show Get Smart.In this film Max is now A member of A group called PITS(I don't understand why it wasn't CONTROL?)anyways Max must stop A derranged fashion designer from leaving the world naked(The Nude BomB).This film is pretty funny,but what really hurts it is that Barbara Feldon,nor Edward Platt, are in the film.Barbara Feldon/Agent 99(Who Max Married)is replaced by Andrea Howard playing Agent 22.Andrea is no replacement for Feldon.The Chief,due to Edward Platts'death,is played quite unconvincingly by Dana Elcar of MacGyver.The reason this film gets 3 stars from me,is because Don Adams is so funny in the film.But had Platt,or more importantly Feldon, been in it,it would've been 5 stars.Funny yes,but ultimately disappointing.
 Fun movie November 6, 2008
S. Navaroli (Dallastown, PA)
While not as good as the TV show, there are some reminders of the humor from way back when.
Maxwell Smart's First Movie!!! November 3, 2008
Jigsaw (Kentucky)
This was a pretty good Get Smart movie, although it would have been a lot better if it had Agent 99 in it. Don Adams is always hilarious as Smart. He has to stop a KAOS agent who wants to drop a bomb that will take everyone in the world's clothes go away. (Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing some hot women like that!) If you love Maxwell Smart, you'll love THE NUDE BOMB!!!

Although this wasn't a bad movie, it cannot compare to the TV series with 99 and Edward Platt as the chief.
 A Pretty Funny Movie July 17, 2008
Steve D. Thams (Chattaroy, Washington United States)
Before purchasing this movie, I've read a lot of reviews from all different sites. From people hating it to liking it to loving it, it was pretty complicated to decide. But being the Don Adams fan that I am I did the smartest thing... Okay,I bought it.
I saw that he didn't exactly play Maxwell Smart but more like an Austin Powers type, women falling all over him, the strange colorful villian that clones himself, but Adams didn't get too Risqué with the sexual talk like Austin Powers did. But overall I happen to think that this movie was pretty funny. I missed not seeing Barbara Feldman but my favorite scenes was the beginning of the film (very James Bondish) Him driving the desk all over the road after the bad guy and towards the end when Adams and the villian kept cloning themselves and you can even see a mini-Max for a few seconds.
So you can love it, you can hate it, but I personally thought it was a very entertaining spy spoof.
