In the all-new action comedy Get Smart, Maxwell Smart (Steve Carell) is on a mission to thwart the latest plot for world domination by the evil crime syndicate known as KAOS. When the headquarters of US spy agency Control is attacked and the identities of its agents compromised, the Chief (Alan Arkin) has no choice but to promote his ever-eager analyst Maxwell Smart, who has always dreamt of working in the field alongside stalwart superstar Agent 23 (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson). Smart is partnered instead with the only other agent whose identity has not been compromised: the lovely-but-lethal veteran Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway).

Those expecting a movie version of the TV series will probably be disappointed but overall this a great comedy. Steve Carrell's Agent 86 is not the repetitive slapstick silly TV agent we grew up with. He is in many ways better. All the actors do a credible job in this one and there's obviously a sequel on its way as Hymie only appears in the last few frames of the movie.

It was so much funnier than I thought it wold be. Steve Carrell was a perfect Maxwell Smart! The chief was my highlight, he had so many funny lines. Loved it!
