| Original Score: B+ | Feb 18, 2012

As a reworking of one of the great 1960s 온라인카지노추천 comedies, you'd think being funny would be its main goal. But you would be wrong. Very, very wrong.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 18, 2008

An uninspired comedy that runs the full gamut from characters being punched in the groin/face to being shot in the face/groin, until everything culminates in an expensively pointless action finale.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2008

We sit back and wait for the laughs. Which come pretty slow and infrequent, though Carell does his straight-faced best to act out the A-Z of Hilarious.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2008

The film is about as funny as a 3am cold call, and if you are a critic you cannot slam down the phone before you have heard it out.

| Aug 22, 2008

Steve Carell is reliably funny as an accident-prone special agent in Get Smart, but he's funny on his own here - without a good script or a zingy supporting cast to help him along.

| Aug 22, 2008

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2008

From this distance it looks like a rejected chapter from the Naked Gun franchise, and infinitely more wooden.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 22, 2008

Despite a plot that should be simpler, Get Smart is as big on action as it is on laughs and works because it's less a tired spoof and more a quality comedic adventure movie in its own right.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 22, 2008

I often wondered if the filmmakers weren't trying to fix something that isn't broken.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 7, 2008

Offering a little bit of everything but not quite enough of any one thing, Get Smart is a likable jumble of genres that would have benefited from being less ambitious.

These amiable actors elevate what may otherwise have been a rather ordinary exercise in nostalgia.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 10, 2008

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.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 10, 2008

One of the more pleasant surprises of the year.

Full Review | Jun 23, 2008

Get Smart is likable and very funny -- at least a two-to-one ratio of excellent gags to clunkers -- but it's not, for better or worse, Get Smart.

| Jun 20, 2008

Written and directed with efficiency, cheer, and a refreshing lack of look-how-meta-clever-we-are egotism, the movie references just enough of the original touchstones and punchlines to please those who lived it the first time.

Full Review | Original Score: B+ | Jun 20, 2008

Chipper, energetic and unimaginatively plotted re-do.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 20, 2008

Rather than the laugh a minute promised by old comedies, Get Smart generates approximately one laugh per hour, and I can't remember either one.

Full Review | Jun 20, 2008

You cannot expect a bunch of vacationing kids to remember, let alone revere, a cheeky little 온라인카지노추천 half hour that entertained the old folks almost a half century ago.

| Jun 20, 2008

Despite what seemed (in the trailers, at least) like inspired casting of Steve Carell, the perpetrators of Get Smart almost entirely miss what made the Cold War 온라인카지노추천 spy comedy funny.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 20, 2008
