Movie Trailer: Get Smart
There is no greater recycler in the universe than Hollywood. Get Smart, which was popular thirty years ago, is getting a big screen update starring Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway. The comedic novelty item from Buck Henry and Mel Brooks had some charm way back when, will the modern day version be as likable? Well, its written by the guys who wrote Failure to Launch and directed by the guy who's responsible for The Longest Yard, 50 First Dates and My Fellow Americans. - If you're wanting to get to this one in the theater, I'd go see this one on opening weekend, there may not be a second.

Me thinks it'll stink. How about you?





Screenwriters: Tom J. Astle (Failure to Launch), and Matt Ember (Failure to Launch)
Director: Peter Segal (The Longest Yard)
Actors: Steve Carell (Evan Almighty), Anne Hathaway (The Devil Wears Prada), Dwayne Johnson (Walking Tall), Alan Arkin (Catch-22), and Bill Murray (Caddyshack)

Inept secret agent? That's never gotten the big screen treatment before. Low probability of success.

I rather like My Fellow Americans. :-)

But . . . yeah, the trailer suggests that slapstick once again supplants wit as the comedic device of choice.

Not even slapstick. It's physical foolishness long extended past the point of the gag. . . .

But the premise is fun, and if I had ever seen an episode of Get Smart on TV, I imagine I'd find it interesting. . . .

Cheers,
PGE
