Get Smart was suprisingly better than i anticpated. I expected it to be funny, but i didnt expect it to be smartly written and so well paced. Now I will admit that the whole story line was a little predictale, but It's not the reason your going to see this movie. Steve Carell can lead a movie, he's proved that with 40 Year Old Virgin, and Anne Hathaway can hold her own as the straigh man - so to speak. There was only one scene that I actually saw Hathaway as Barbara Feldon's 99, towards the end of the movie but it doesnt change my opinion of her characterization. All in all the movie was entertaining and strong enough to carry a sequel if they can keep the original cast.

I just attended the press screening for this adorable THRILLING family-friendly well-directed(Peter Segal)/well-scripted/well-made and well-acted entertaining FUN movie based on the TV series. WHEW!!! I was SURPRISED by Get Smart because I had high expectations for it - and they were met! Steve Carell charmingly competently portrayed Maxwell Smart/Agent 86 and Anne Hathaway was his perfect foil as Agent 99. Dwayne Johnson/The Rock nailed his part as Agent 23. Terence Stamp was menacing as the leader of KAOS. And James Caan was SO FUNNY as the President. Alan Arkin was even FUNNIER as Chief of CONTROL. Great supporting cast! The movie has SO MANY charming FUN FUNNY moments! The scene where Max danced with his exuberant enthusiastic partner in a duel against Agent 99 and her partner WAS A GEM! Underdogs ROCK!!! And yes, there are gadgets! This movie is GOOD FUN family-fare with a very broad appeal. Recommendation: You'd be SMART to go see it! GRADE: A-minus

My husband and I got to see a sneak preview of this movie yesterday. It was nice to see a comedy that wasn't based on "scoring" with chicks! Lots of updated nods to the show, but you will enjoy it even if you weren't a fan. I usualy rate a comedy by how many times my husband laughs out loud. He fell asleep in 40 year old Virgin, if that tells you anything. In Get Smart, I lost count and he actually snorted a few times. Better than any thumbs up for me! Great 1st date movie and nothing too objectionable for the kids over 8.

It was a good all around movie, funny, yet action, and not cheesy or anything.. Carrell does make you bust a gut here and there, you can't help to hold it in.. So don't be holding the popcorn for most of the show, or youll drop allot of it.. It was good for all ages, whether your young or Old man, no nudity or obessive language or anything that would make someone turn away, there are some jokes that refrence sex, but 2 tops in the whole movie... So I mean this is probably the Funniest Movie So Far this year.... I mean the way movies are made these days, they barely make anything worth seeying.. So see this... I give it a nice A- Go See It!

Finally, this movie is coming out:) I was not one of the first, but the first one to view this film back in summer 2007 at Irvine Spectrum. What can I say? If you are a fan of this back in the day, black and white TV show which aired about the same time like the Twilight Zone, this is the movie for you. But say, the people who are born in 1980 and above, will not recognize this movie, but if you are a definite fan of Carell, Hathaway, the Rock, and/or the Oscar winner Alan Arkin, this movie is a two thumbs up no matter what age group you are in. Not giving away too much of the film's premise, this movie is like the "Naked Gun" Leslie Nielsen movie but without the corniness and slap-stick comedy.... this movie does have a meaningful plot. It should be a blockbuster but definitely, it won't win any Oscar Nominations, but well worth the premium movie ticket price:) So if you are in the mood for 007 wannabe James Bond action/comedy, this is a must see! I will see it again:)
