Get Smart (Single-Disc Fullscreen Edition) Reviews:
Fun 
2009-10-09 -
Like the title says, it's fun, some funny moments and hilarious scenes. It's the kind of movie you watch once and move on.
Very funny! 
2009-08-14 - Very funny movie with great cast members. Some of us may know the original 'Get Smart'. I haven't seen it myself, but since I've seen this I would like to do so. If you like comedy movies and spy movies. I would suggest this. It reminds me of the Pink Panther. (The new one. I haven't seen the original of that either.)
Pee your pants funny!
2009-07-29 - This was so funny, I loved it and enjoy watching it over and over again.
Hillarious
2009-05-28 - This DVD is perfect if you are in the goofy, not serious kind of movie mood. Steve Carrell is hillarious, and Anne Hathaway is charming. Dwayne Johnson adds his humor. Funny, silly movie. But not so stupid that you can't stand to watch it over and over.
Warner Bros. tries a new "Maxwell Smart".
2009-04-23 - This review is for the Get Smart Full-Screen edition that came with the Invisble Ink Spy Pen with Ultraviolet Decoder Light in the package. It really works.
The DVD will start automatically after 1 minute and a half, if you have not made a movie version choice.
You may choose the Theatrical version or the Special Feature of clicking on an icon throughout the movie for never-seen-before additional scenes.
Inside the DVD case is your full-screen disc, but also instuctions and your secret authorization code to download your digital copy of Get Smart.
No audio commentary.
The original "Get Smart" tv series was broadcast on ABC 1965-69 and CBS 1969-70. The series starred Don Adams as "Maxwell Smart" and Barbara Feldon as "Agent 99". Get Smart - Season 1 (The Original TV Series)
10 years later, Don Adams returned as Agent 86 in a Get Smart motion pictures, The Nude Bomb (1980). It was retitled and edited for television as "The Return of Maxwell Smart".
Don Adams and Barbara Feldon reteamed for Get Smart Again (1989-tvm) with Dick Gautier returning as "Hymie".
Don and Barbara reteamed again for the FOX tv series, Get Smart: The Complete Series in 1995.
Don Adams passed away September 25, 2005 of Pulmonery Infection.
For this motion picture reboot of "Get Smart", Steve Carell is Agent 86 with Anne Hathaway (Princess Diaries (2001), Princess Diaries 2 (2004)) as Agent 99.
Alan Arkin as "The Chief", Terence Stamp as "Siegfried" David Koechner as "Larabee", Bill Murray as "Agent 13", Patrick Warburtun as "Hymie".
Only Bernie Kopell, who appeared 14 times as "Siegfried" in the original "Get Smart" tv series, makes an all too brief cameo appearance.
For die hard fans of the tv series, this movie will be a hard pill to swallow. Steve Carell does not have the voice or the characture that Don Adams add made famous.
28 minutes into the film, I could not stand it anymore. I turned it off and went to bed.
I decided to give it another try 2 weeks later. I liked Anne Hathaway in the strong character and it was nice to see the likeable Alan Arkin in a movie again.
It was Dalip Singh who was a scene stealer in this film. I really took notice. I had not seen him before this film, but I found out he has been the wrestler, The Great Khali. Pardon me for saying this, but Mr. Singh reminded me of Richard Kiel, Eegah (1962),who played "Jaws" in the 2 "James Bond" films, The Spy Who Loved Me(1977), Moonraker(1979).
Also in the cast: Dwayne Johnson, James Caan, Ken Davitian, Larry Miller, Kevin Nealon.
Why didn't they have Bernie Kopell play "Siegfried" in this film?
Masi Oka and Nate Torrence ( Nate, whom you have seen in many tv commercials) who play Bruce & Lloyd in this "Get Smart" film, continued their roles in a made-for-DVD movie sequel, Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd Out of Control (2008)", released just 10 days after "Get Smart" was released in the movie theatre.
