Short Movie Review # 13: Get Smart


I went to see Get Smart with zero expectations and I wasn't disappointed ! It is a light hearted funny movie, much like Johnny English.

Instead of the bumbling Rowan Atkinson, we have the new funny guy, Steve Carrel as a secret agent with the mission of saving the President of the USA. He is aided in this task by fellow CONTROL agent Anne Hathaway who looks , walks and talks the part.

Partly a spoof on the James Bond series, we have our own The Great Khali as the new Jaws. Secret gadgets, daredevil stunts and some really funny scenes make this an enjoyable movie.

The stand out scene is the dance sequence, where Steve Carrel has a ball dance with a woman more than twice his size ! Hilarious !

Rather than the trash being dished out by Bollywood these days, you can easily go for Get Smart. It is money well spent.

Rating : 3.5 stars
