Get Smart rides Steve Carell's considerable charm for a few laughs, but ultimately proves to be a rather ordinary action comedy.

As a reworking of one of the great 1960s TV comedies, you'd think being funny would be its main goal. But you would be wrong. Very, very wrong. Oct 18, 2008 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

This is a spy comedy which seems entirely unaware of the new genre of Jack Bauer or Jason Bourne, and instead looks more like a Roger Moore-era 007 knockoff. Aug 22, 2008 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

From this distance it looks like a rejected chapter from the Naked Gun franchise, and infinitely more wooden. Aug 22, 2008 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Overall this is a limp parade of recycled gags and gadgets: an action movie with no surprises and a comedy with nothing like enough laughs. Aug 22, 2008 | Rating: 2/6 | Full Review…

Which words describe this movie version of one of the funniest television shows ever made? Terrible, puerile and a travesty are close, but not angry enough. Jul 10, 2008 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

There are a few laughs, but nothing memorable, no biting satire and no clever wit. Most disappointing, there's no real chemistry between the bumbling Maxwell Smart and beautiful Agent 99. A fizzle where there be sizzle. Aug 25, 2018 | Full Review…

The movie is hurt more than helped by having to carry over character names and shoehorn in the show's greatest hits, Carell and Hathaway's rhythm faltering with every recycled catchphrase. Jul 29, 2015 | Full Review…

Get Smart certainly has its moments, but suffers badly from an inability to balance the surreal humor and life-threatening terrorist threat. Jul 14, 2011 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…
