GET SMART
Back in the 1960s, Don Adams broke the mold of the character Maxwell Smart in the classic television series “Get Smart.” Now, Steve Carell tries his hand as the bumbling spy from CONTROL. The evil Seigfried (Terrence Stamp) from KAOS has stolen nuclear weapons and distributed them among unstable dictatorships. It’s up to the eager Maxwell Smart (Carell) in his first assignment to work with Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway) to uncover the master plan. Alan Arkin stars as the Chief and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson plays Agent 23 to fulfill the funny supporting cast.

KEVIN’S REVIEW
What Kevin expected: A slapstick, modern update on the classic television series.
What Kevin liked: The cast was funny, and Carell has a great chemistry with Hathaway. The movie was a bit of a slow-starter, but things ramp up into hilarity by the end of the movie.
What Kevin didn’t like: Parts of the plot were pretty obvious and not very surprising.
Grade: Kinda rocks.
