I downloaded Get Smart from iTunes the other night and watched it over three days as I got time. It is a very funny movie. I enjoy the dumb physical comedy and this had plenty of belly laughs from stupid events and jokes. One of the things I noticed was how many big names comedians were in the movie. For instance Bill Murray was Agent 13.

Max Smart has changed. He isn't the well-meaning oblivious doofus that he was in the TV series. He is more knowledgeable, sophisticated and even an action star in this one. I could have done without the final action sequence with aircraft and trains. It was more like The Island than Max Smart in that section. There was also the cliche of Max being thought a double agent, etc, and then winning back their trust, etc, etc. Boring. I guess even comedic secret agents have to change with the times.

Anyway, I give it five Dolph Lundgrens. Will watch again.
