Warner again skimps on the audio (like they do far to often), only giving viewers standard Dolby Digital instead of an uncompressed track. The bass line is powerful, and easily the best part of the mix. Surrounds are inconsistent. In fact, this track feels subdued, even during the action. There are only minor instances of transitional audio to speak of, and none of it ambient. Only aggressive action is given any attention. It’s doubtful an uncompressed track would make this limited design any better, but at least it would have sounded sharper. 
With three discs packed inside an easily breakable hinge case, one would expect mountains of extras. One would also be wrong. The second disc is a digital copy, and the third one of those throwaway DVD games that never provide any real entertainment value.
Four featurettes tell the typical making-of story. The best of the lot divulges all of the details in the film that reference the original show. A funny gag reel and an extended sequence deals with the vomit sequence in the film. The latter two run around five minutes each. A promo for the direct-to-video Bruce and Lloyd spin-off is here too.
Smart Takes is a unique way of delivering alternate takes and deleted scenes. Close to an hour of content runs alongside the movie, showcasing different takes or adlibs related to the scene you’re watching. However, this is the only way to access the content. 
The number of references to the original show are too many to list, but here are a few:
Yarmy Airlines is a tribute to Don Adam’s birth name.
Get Smart villains are featured in the opening credits.
Bernie Kopell has a cameo as a car driver.
The shoe phone is hard to miss.
James Caan had a role in the original show.
