So I really liked this movie.
Steve Carell was perfect for Maxwell Smart, Anne Hathaway is beyond Gorgeous, The Rock was . .. well the usual "THE ROCK", Anne Hathaway is smok'n hot, Terry Crews makes his "I'm going to be in every comedy" appearance, The Great Khali
is even good, (did I mention that I'm now in love with Anne Hathaway?) as well as a HUGE and unexpected line up of cameo appearances (look for Bill Murry in a Tree and Patrick Warburton LOL)
Now I used to watch this show when I was a kid and LOVED it.
I was worried the movie would try to do it's own thing and forget the past. . . fortunately it does do it's own thing but has TONS of references to the old show (which I'm afraid MANY people won't get but I don't care because it made the movie THAT MUCH BETTER FOR ME HAHAHAHAHHA).
Yes, Carell even breaks out the shoe phone!!!!
The story isn't too compelling but I wasn't expecting an Oscar screenplay so I was pretty happy by the time the credits rolled.
P.S. Hymie does make an appearance
