After beginning with that familiar theme song, audiences will enjoy several showcase sequences including an impromptu dance contest, incredible stunts, and a hilarious camera gag with Max, Bruce, and Lloyd. It would’ve been nice to see how a special building was infiltrated, but audiences can still enjoy the quick paced plot from the screenwriting team of Tom Astle and Matt Ember. This team also wrote and executive produced the upcoming spin-off Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd Out of Control coming to home video on July 1.
The high quality characters and content even convey a few admirable themes like using vital personal information to help, not hurt. The movie is based on the television series starring Don Adams and characters created by Mel Brooks and Buck Henry who also served as consultants on this film. Directed by comedic veteran Peter Segal, Get Smart also hints at possible future installments based on an ending appearance of Hymie, played by Patrick Warburton. Highly recommended and rated PG-13 for some rude humor, action violence, and language.
