Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

pwoods1 Given that the premise of the film is that Smart, Agent 99 and the rest of the (still alive) rag-tag Control agents are reactivated to fight Kaos, one really has to be a fan of the original series to enjoy the movie.I can't remember how old Don Adams was when he started the series, but, make-up aside, in this production, he looks 70s-ish. Barbara Feldon still looks amazing, and Bernie Kopell as "Siegfreid" doesn't seem to have aged a bit.HOWEVER, if you're not a fan of the original series, this is not for you. There are constant references back to the series but, there are many one-liners referring to the current (at the time of release) US government.They only work as comedy/irony if applied to the Govt of the time. Nothing ages as fast as political satire - unless that satire is timeless. And this ain't. Still...Poke fun at the intelligence gathering community, because if we don't, who will?

anne1985 Although, this movie wasn't written by the original comic genius Mel Brookes (sic), it still has the sartirical humour that has made "Get Smart" a very well remembered and popular name in TV history. It has all the no-brainers that the original series had, eg: "Would you believe...", etc and I think Don Adams is a great actor that can pull off any comic routine to a tea. Although, with the missing Edward Platt (the Chief 1916 - 1975), the movie is dedicated to his memory which I think is a nice gesture, but it does however make the movie seem like "it's missing something". Ed Platt, in the original series, was like Max's "scape-goat", almost like Laurel and Hardey (the Chief being the serious one and Max being the bumbling idiot).It's also great to see Barbera Feldon as agent 99 along side Max again, even though she's older, ha ha! All in all, a great little TV movie and a must see if you're a fan of the old "Get Smart" series.

uds3 Goes a long way in making up for the abysmal THE NUDE BOMB nine years earlier. Dedicated to the memory of Ed Platt who died in 1974, Max is reunited with "99" and all the old favorites, Siegfried and Agent 13 as he takes on the awesome task of putting the Chaos "weather machine" out of action.With wife "99" gone domestic and the twins in college, Max tries to handle his assignment without 99's knowledge as "working mothers" are not allowed to spy. Predictably, the wheels fall off for Max, and it is left to "99" to save the day, after which she joins him in his assignment.The old magic is still there and both Adams and Feldon reprise their roles effortlessly. Ed Platt as chief is sorely missed, but wherever he is now, watching this would have brought a smile to his face.

hillari I saw The Nude Bomb in 1980, and was highly disappointed. This made-for-TV movie is better. It doesn't totally recapture the goofiness of the original series, but it makes a good effort. All of the crazy characters are back with the exception of The Chief (the actor who played this character passed away in the mid-1970's). There are some scenes in this movie where the characters look as if they haven't missed a step from who they were in the original series. I would suggest skipping The Nude Bomb entirely, and watching this one instead.
