A film that has Steve Carell in the cast is, for itself, a good reason to go see it. Just look at his track record since "The 40-Year Old Virgin" and also on TVs "The Office". Comedy is the style which Steve fits in. Any attempt to make him try something out of his specialty with the cheesy "Dan in Real Life" and the not-so-funny "Evan Almighty" just go wrong. Fortunately, his speeches, his faces and everything else about Steve in this movie is just amazing, made me laugh a lot and is a clear representation of what Steve was born for and should always do. A good addition in the cast is Masi Oka (from TVs "Heroes"). I don't know why, I just like him, even though he has a very minor role on this one. As for the movie, it has a nice storyline a la James Bond (if fact, more of an "Austin Powers" in this case), great action and many absurd situations that will turn your mood good if you are in a bad one. A great step up into the 2008 summer season.Read full review
Whilst the movie is great, very funny and a fabulous homage to the original series, the 2 disc edition is very poor value. The single-disc edition has most of what the 2-disc has (most importantly extended scenes), and the additional special features on the 2-disc edition that are only available from the internet, can only be accessed using he DVD disc. This is no good since most internet computers no longer have CD-drives in them.

This is an excellent DVD to grt. I am generally not a Steve Carrol Fan however, the role of Maxwell Smart in this movie seems to be made for him. Steve's performance is a tribute to Don Adams and I can only imagine Don was smiling while watching Steve emulate without overstating his performance. I hope there is a sequel.
Being a big Get Smart fan I love this film. It captures a lot of the original feel and jokes but has much more action. It's hard to decide whether this is an action film or a comedy. The plot is good, acting good, and it's a good all around film that I've watched 3 times already. Enjoy!
