Maxwell Smart is on a mission to thwart the latest plot for world domination by the evil crime syndicate known as KAOS. When the headquarters of U.S. spy agency Control is attacked and the identities of its agents compromised, the Chief has no choice but to promote his ever-eager analyst Maxwell Smart, who has always dreamt of working in the field alongside stalwart superstar Agent 23. Smart is partnered instead with the lovely-but-lethal veteran Agent 99. Given little field experience and even less time, Smart-armed with nothing but a few spy-tech gadgets and his unbridled enthusiasm-must thwart the doomsday plans of KAOS head Siegfried.

Get Smart is Superb???Heh?!!!

A Customer from SW London, 27th August, 2008

I cannot believe a reviewer described this film as superb! Obviously this person is easily pleased!! This movie was a time filler, and nothing else. Anne Hathaway looked stunning at the ball but her main man didn't cut the mustard! He just seems to be too old to be acting silly as he does. I confess I do not always find him funny. There are some funny scenes but they are not what I would call laugh out loud funny. This is a good kiddies flick, but personally I was bored throughout and could't wait for it to finish .

Insane, implausible.. and impossible not to laugh.

PaulaWestwood from , 26th August, 2008

You know whether you like Steve Carrell or not, so know to stay away if you don't. If you do, you have an added bonus of Anne Hathaway who is able to seamlessly do funny adult (Devil Wears Prada), funny kids (Ella Enchanted) and serious (Becoming Jane) with ultimate ease and brilliance. This time Carell is the field agent that never was, stuck for years in an internal role in 'Control' he yearns to have the opportunity to be a field agent like Hathaway, but despite applying is constantly overlooked. That is until (ok its been done before) he is the only man left for the job, and has to try and save the day. This is a real romp, a completely insane and implausible film that I just loved from beginning to end. If you have a funny bone at all there will be something in this for you. Definately worth a watch.
