Film Review - Get Smart (2008)

Get Smart is based on the hit 1960’s TV Series but this time Steve Carell replaces the late great Don Adams as Maxwell Smart, this time having to track down missing nuclear weapons before KAOS fires them on the world, but he won’t be doing it alone.


To be honest, I felt very mixed about this film; on the one hand it had some good laughs behind it but on the other hand, I felt that the film had far too much action, so much so that it dominates the film just as in Indiana Jones, and like Harrison Ford in that film, Anne Hathaway was the only real bright spot the movie had.


So on the whole; I’m giving this 2 out of 5, for while it had some good laughs, the rest of it was very average.
