Well, I stopped by the RedBox yesterday and picked up Get Smart.  I really like Steve Carell so I wasn’t too worried about liking the movie (even though he’s made some movies that weren’t that great…).  After watching the first 20-30 minutes, I was a bit worried.  Now, I’ve seen quite a few episodes of the historical Get Smart syndicated show on television so I was expecting it to be a bit more like that than it was.

As the show wore on, there were some funny bits and pieces to make the show overall worth watching.  But, I wouldn’t recommend someone to specifically go out on a search and acquire mission just to watch this movie… even if you like Steve Carell.  Yes, you will get a few laughs out of it, but overall, you will be wishing for a better movie after you have invested 110 minutes into this semi-watchable flick.
