Movie Review : Get Smart

Written by GnomeFan on June 24, 2008 – 1:27 pm -

 

This will be my first movie review. I’m not much of a movie go-er so, maybe this’ll be the first and the last.LOL. I will definitely do a review after this but the time gap will be half a year to a year :P.

Okay, by the title you would know that i’m doing a review on the movie,Get Smart. The movie is an adaptation of a television series in the 60s. The movie stars Steve Carell(Maxwell Smart),Anne Hathaway(Agent 99)(which,btw is sooo H.O.T) and Dwayne Johnson(Agent 23).

I watched the movie yesterday after a week or more after watching the trailer on T.V. The trailer looks funny and because of the fact that it was, attracted me to spend my money and watch it in a cinema. Too bad, the movie is not like what the trailer shows you. The movie is quite boring, eventhough some of the scenes are filled with funny action,double-meaning dialogue and creativity. The action scene is quite ok eventhough not very well acted.

Steve Carell did his best in this movie and it shows. He is quirky and able to make the audience laugh at what he says and does. Anne Hathaway, well, she’s just hot.Her acting is OK. Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s acting is not his best in this movie. He has little scenes and it’s not really showing his acting skills.

I watched the movie at GSC Mid Valley on a Monday morning. The hall was empty and only about 15 people are in the cinema. I asked the guy at the counter for the best seat in the cinema and he got me a seat on the 2nd row from behind,which has a very nice view of the screen.The 1st row, are for couple’s seat. My seat was infront of a couple’s seat,sadly. Not that i envy them together,but, the guy behind me kept giving comments and narrating the movie to his girlfriend, ALL THROUGH THE MOVIE!! I was like,WTF man. Shut up. If you already saw this movie, keep quite then. Others(me!), haven’t watched it! I was so pissed at the guy, but I didn’t ask him to shut up. Then, his annoying girl would say something like, “Kesiannye die(Pity him)” when the actors pick on Steve Carell. Maybe that’s why i give such a bad review for this movie. I HATE them!! They spoilt the movie for me!!GRRR!~

 

I give the movie 2/5 stars. Too bad. Wasted a monday morning to go watch it.LOL

    Get Smart looks okay over all though Steve Carell seems to be veering more and more toward not so funny slapstick humor
