Storyline

American Maxwell Smart works for a Government spy agency in an administrative capacity. When the agency's head office is attacked, the Chief decides to assign Maxwell as a spy and partners him with sexy Agent 99, much to her chagrin. The duo nevertheless set off to combat their attackers by first parachuting off an airplane and landing in Russian territory - followed closely by an over seven feet tall, 400 pound goon, known simply as Dalip. The duo, handicapped by Maxwell's antics, will eventually have their identities compromised, and may be chalked up as casualties, while back in America their attackers have already planted a bomb that is set-up to explode in a concert.

This movie was awesome!!
14 June 2008 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I got the chance to see this movie today,because it showed on an Army base. You can't get a tougher crowd than a military crowd! The crowd absolutely loved it. There were SEVERAL scenes that the crowd clapped and really laughed out loud. Personally, I thought it was one of the funnier movies I have seen in a long time. I think it was very well done.

As a parent, the only real problem that I had with it was one visually sexual sight gag. Other than that, it was funny, it wasn't the same old stuff done again and again, and I thought the actors did a great job of sticking to the old show, while making the characters theirs just a little bit.
