Get Smart is a remake of ye old Get Smart television series which brought shoe phones and blueberry flavored cyanide pills to the masses.
I just got back from seeing it and darned if it wasn't quite funny. Steve Carell pulls off a good Agent 86 and the rest of the cast holds up as well. Also Anne Hathaway. I would do horrible things to her. Quite a few homages and throwbacks to the series are included, which always makes us feel like we're part of a glorious inside joke that only a select few million people understand.
Overall I give it 8.5 lunchboxes that are just lunchboxes and have no special spy abilities out of 10 lunchboxes that are just lunchboxes for carrying your lunch in.
I want the series on DVD so bad, but it's so fucking expensive.

I want to see this, but there are so many movies this summer. I don't think it'll suffer much from not being seen on a big screen. Or I'll wait until it gets to the 2 dollar theate.r

I really liked Anne Hathaway until I realized she was as dumb as bricks
Most actors and actresses are.
Not really.
You'd be surprised how limited even the best of actors are off screen. Like DeNiro tried campaigning for Obama for a little bit? Worst speaker ever. Not even kidding.

Oratory isn't the only sign of intelligence
I'm not saying it is. It's just god damn he had no personality at all. Unless he's pretending to be someone else he's totally useless.
Math is where I fucked up my SAT's, I think I only got around the 300 mark.
I got a 780 on math back when it was out of 800. I got a 500 on verbal but in my defense I was just blindly marking answers toward the end there because I just wanted out.

Y'know what's funny? When people actually study for the SATs.
Honestly, this summer has been insane. There are just too many damn movies I want to see and not enough cash to go about it, particularly with the nearest theater being an hour away, making every showing an "event" unto itself. Any other summer and this would have been a definite must see.
I loved Get Smart, mostly due to Don Adams, and Steve Carell is one of the few actors I'm willing to accept in his role. Colbert might have also fit, while Mathew Broderick (obviously) did not. At any rate, this one is going to have to remain a rental, along with Hancock, what with Hellboy and Dark Knight on the horizion.

DeNiro's lost a lot of his spark in recent years
I never thought of him a particulary erudite
But in movies like Mean Streets
Early critics didn't even know if it was really acting
or if Scorsese had just picked up some crazy guy and filmed him doing whatever

Actually it works. You don't "study" you practice it for it. My sister kicked the ACT's ass her second time around after buying a practice book. Earned her about 80 grand in scholarships.

Pretty much yeah. I mean, I didn't ace them, but I got a 1350/1600 or a 2020/2400 without trying really.

Yeah, I mean, I didn't study for anything prior to that, why start now?

It was so good that it canceled out the terrible, terrible crowd that was there opening night
Seeing it on Monday.
Can not wait. Used to watch the TV series every day after school.
But this was from critics.
Secret Satan
nothing
all they do is criticize
Get Smart was an awesome TV show, always used to watch it as a kid.
keith we can never be friends

Who is "Blossom"?
I'll take "90s television series: for $1,000, Alex.
This show was the whole reason Nick at Nite existed. In fact. Why isn't this on tv now? Failure, tv execs. Failure.
Most actors and actresses are.
she is?
fuck man, why did you have to ruin the illusion for me
I'm sorry but that was incorrect. "Blossom" was never actually hot. Especially when standing next to "Six".
Not really.
Did you know Will Smith got a perfect score on the verbal portion of his SATs?
I'm always impressed by that
Because I tried damn hard and only got 1400

whoa
The reading comp part of my SAT was my weakest section. In the other verbal part and the two math parts, I only missed one each.
Except for the part where "that Dwayne Johnson man" stapled the guy in the forehead.
