Get Smart, Again! Audience Reviews

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
bigverybadtom Unlike the 1980 movie, they brought back much of the old cast, and revived the old atmosphere. The jokes, the look, the characters, the interaction, and updated it without overdoing it.There were some funny twists; Siegfriend having a twin brother on the side of good, Hymie having hurt feelings about Smart not contacting him for a long time, Larrabee having received a letter from then-President Nixon to stay at the old CONTROL headquarters building, even to the time where it is being demolished and Smart has to pull him out. Also the new jokes were in line with the ones from the old TV show, and they didn't try to make a substitute for Edward Platt. An enjoyable bit of nostalgia.
Robert W. Get Smart was never a "great" show. I mean the whole idea was the campy, tongue in cheek humor, the delicious wit of Don Adams, spoofing the entire spy action James Bond Genre. I remember the original series in reruns as a kid and it was one of the TV greats!! You would never think that they could bring a cast together nearly thirty years later and still pull it off and yet that is precisely what they do!! The movie isn't good...I mean it's B Movie elongated TV Episode quality with the same quirks and tongue in cheek humor with some digs at politics and other things in a light and cheery way. The villains are really bumbling nice guys and Don Adams slips right back into the Maxwell Smart character and looks great!! True fans of the original series will find Edward Platt's Chief sadly lacking as a big part of the series was the incredible comedic timing and relationship between Max and the Chief. Still Max and 99 are in full force with some new characters and some old ones as well. It was a great film to watch before seeing the new Get Smart movie to refresh my memory to the old series. The best part about it hands down is what an amazing job the cast and film makers did bringing the series to life again.Don Adams truly is Maxwell Smart. I think he is more of his character so it is effortless for him. He's strong on screen, funny in a very campy way and pulls it off every time. He made the series, and the film and everything else he did worthwhile just by being himself. Barbara Feldon also returns to her role as Agent 99. I must say that I thought her role was toned down a lot in this film. Her and Max still have their chemistry and she's still soft and sweet and smart but tough on the inside. I thought her and Max would spend more time teamed up in a reunion but she doesn't have that big of a role. Her and Adams have terrific chemistry even after all these years. Bernie Kopell also returns as #1 Kaos agent Conrad Siegfried and a rather silly second role as Siegfriend's twin brother. Kopell is still terrific and campy with his crazy accent (ironically he is very well known as an actor for being able to do accents.) Kopell and Adams share a distinctive talent for physical comedy and quick wit and they work great together. Richard Gautier returns in one of my favorite Get Smart roles as robot Hymie. His dry humor and the entire gag of taking things literally never gets old as bad as it is and him and Adams are also terrific together. Robert Karvelas also returns although in a small role as Larrabee. And finally David Ketchum appears as Agent 13 in his usual crazy hiding spots.If you have never seen Get Smart the series or weren't a fan I promise that you will quite likely hate this TV rendition because it truly is for the fans. I mean it covers literally everything from the series including the many running gags as well "Missed it by that much" "Would you believe..." and so on. The special effects are mostly non existent using a floor level budget which the original series probably ran off about the same twenty years before this. Director Gary Nelson worked on the original series and I really do think that made all the difference because I just can't express how impressed I was with how much this brought me back to watching those original episodes. I score it as low as I am simply because it's very low budget, campy and not exactly top notch viewing but fans will love it and if you need a little trip down memory lane you'll want to see this one for sure as it is a great honor to the ground breaking memorable series. 6/10
estabansmythe "Get Smart, Again" rights the ship that had listed badly with "The Nude Bomb" nine years earlier.For whatever reasons, the late great Don Adams and Robert Karvelas as Larribee were the only series regulars to star in the earlier film (Bill Dana and Joey Forman had small roles).This time around, the gang's all here, except Ed Platt who died in 1974, and they haven't lost a step. All those dumb, idiotic, wonderful jokes are there; the timing is there; the characters are there. It's all there and it's all wonderful.For fans, this is a joyful trip back down memory lane. Viewers new to the insanity will be curious to check out the classic series."Would you believe...." Yes, we would.
Dale86 It's 1989. Kaos is back in business. Who better to stop them, than Maxwell Smart, Agent 86. It's been 20 Years since Control was in business fighting Kaos. Max has been called back to active duty in this hilarious reunion movie of the hit TV show Get Smart. Max (Don Adams) has reactivated his team from Control, which includes his still beautiful wife Agent 99 (Barbara Feldon). Also returning is Robert Karvalas as Larrabee, Dick Gautier as Hymie, and Dave Ketchum as Agent 13. Kaos plans to take over the world with a weather machine. Bernie Kopell returns as Siegfried with his companion Shtarker (King Moody) as they lead Kaos in their plan. Though a lot of the old jokes are re-used, you will still find this movie funny. It's the series all over again and it shows that Get Smart has not lost its touch after 20 years. It is still as popular as ever. Do not skip this movie. A+++++
