Plot: Bungling secret agent Maxwell Smart, also known as Agent 86 for CONTROL, is on a mission to battle the forces of their evil crime nemesis known as KAOS with his more-competent partner Agent 99, (whose real name is never revealed) at his side. When the headquarters of U.S. spy agency Control is attacked and the identities of its agents compromised, the Chief has no choice but to promote his ever-eager analyst Maxwell Smart, who has always dreams of working in the field alongside stalwart superstar Agent 23. Smart will do whatever it takes to thwart the latest plot for world domination by KAOS.

Review: For those of us who have seen the original tv series, there isn’t a lot of difference between the role played by Steve Carell in comparison to the old version with Don Adams, the differences being voice, the film being in colour (as opposed to the tv series being in black and white and in colour).

The movie wasn’t to bad, it had it’s moments and was amusing enough to keep me awake and filling my face with popcorn and post mix coke. Carell filled the shoes well and there was some cameo roles from the old actors in the film, aso featuring Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) but he seemed out of place at some stages of the movie. Wait for tight arse Tuesdays to see this one, dvd, or download it.
