best movie i've ever seen.

As Good As It Gets

Absolutely Fantastic

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Unlike the 1980 movie, they brought back much of the old cast, and revived the old atmosphere. The jokes, the look, the characters, the interaction, and updated it without overdoing it.There were some funny twists; Siegfriend having a twin brother on the side of good, Hymie having hurt feelings about Smart not contacting him for a long time, Larrabee having received a letter from then-President Nixon to stay at the old CONTROL headquarters building, even to the time where it is being demolished and Smart has to pull him out. Also the new jokes were in line with the ones from the old TV show, and they didn't try to make a substitute for Edward Platt. An enjoyable bit of nostalgia.

Everyone is back! Except for the Chief(Edward Platt, died in 1974) in this reunion of the fabulous 60's spy spoof "Get Smart". Agent 86, aka Maxwell Smart(Don Adams) is called up to fight KAOS, along with Agent 99(Barbara Feldon) they will be kicking butt again. Lots of new gadgets are here, like the magnet shoes that both Smart and KAOS leader Siegfried(Bernie Kopel, who later became the Doctor on "The Love Boat") wore. Then there's that Maj. Waterhouse(John deLancie, The Notorious "Q" on the latter "Star Trek" series: TNG, DS9, and Voyager) who would end up a double-agent. 99 used that gun that really packed a punch. The coolest gadget that topped it all was the laser credit card, only if Smart would learn to deactivate it first after use. The reunion movie was great, and all the characters were regular as usual. It was nice the movie mentioned Platt after 15 years of his death, he would be smiling down on everyone in the set. The reunion and the originals are a gem, the last attempt of revival should have been lidded. CASE CLOSED! Rating 2.5 out of 5 stars.

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.

It's 1989. Kaos is back in business. Who better to stop them, than Maxwell Smart, Agent 86. It's been 20 Years since Control was in business fighting Kaos. Max has been called back to active duty in this hilarious reunion movie of the hit TV show Get Smart. Max (Don Adams) has reactivated his team from Control, which includes his still beautiful wife Agent 99 (Barbara Feldon). Also returning is Robert Karvalas as Larrabee, Dick Gautier as Hymie, and Dave Ketchum as Agent 13. Kaos plans to take over the world with a weather machine. Bernie Kopell returns as Siegfried with his companion Shtarker (King Moody) as they lead Kaos in their plan. Though a lot of the old jokes are re-used, you will still find this movie funny. It's the series all over again and it shows that Get Smart has not lost its touch after 20 years. It is still as popular as ever. Do not skip this movie. A+++++
