Get Smart

I went to see Get Smart at the movies yesterday and was thrilled with the movie. Before going, I’d scoured YouTube for a few episodes of the old show to watch first, since I’ve never seen it. The movie followed the original very well translated into modern times. The only thing that didn’t agree with me is the paradoxical existance of the original Maxwell Smart things as a museum exhibit in the front room of Control when Smart, Agent 99 and the others are supposedly living in the ‘present.’ Otherwise, Steve Carell was hilarious and Anne Hathaway was very good. It was Mel Brooks had a hand throughout the whole production.
