Starring: Too many people to name, but mainly the Rock, Steve Carell, and buxom Anne Hathaway
GET SMART is a remake of the classic TV series. They should've left it on the small screen. I hated it then. Not much more to like now. Even with everybody and their mother in the cast.
Steve Carell plays the likable screw-up well. The Rock played the ladies' man agent. Hathaway was the sexy agent. LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE's gramps was the agents' chief. The Asian HEROES dude played some geek in the agents' office. I think even James Caan was in here as the President of the US. Bill Murray was in here. Puddy from SEINFELD, too.
Anyway, Maxwell Smart did his usual, clumsy agent work, while mixing in some timely brilliance. It was kinda funny. Carell had his usual share of one-liners. They should've at least let Anne Hathaway show her grenades like they did in BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. She gotta be less Jennifer Love-Hewitt and more Angelina Jolie. Gotta flaunt it when you got it.
Get Smart is what you would get if you combined any James Bond movie with THE PINK PANTHER. Who the hell wants to see that? I guess I was dumb enough to watch it.
Not good at all. Not terrible, but just extremely uninteresting. A light movie to maybe show tweener kids. Maybe Kahia and Kawai would've liked it if they were a little older. I give this movie two juggs of milk dying to come out of the fridge...
