Another movie I only saw because it was $5. I'm an Office fan and a long time Daily Show viewer so I like Steve Carrell. I've never seen any of Anne Hathaway's films but I looked her up and found out that she did a couple films with a lot of nudity in them to prove she wasn't a kid any more so I've got those in my Netflix cue...
The film was decent enough. I was afraid going into it that the bit of romance between Carrell and Hathaway would be a bit creepy since he is in his mid 40s and she is in her mid 20s. Luckily, however, the filmmakers must have though so too because they added in a line where Hathaway's character has had plastic surgery and says that she is older than she looks. There aren't any make out or sex scenes or anything so it isn't all that bad.
The main problem with the film is that it isn't funny. It has some minor limited humor but for long stretches it is just a straight forward spy movie. It is entertaining enough as that but Get Smart is supposed to be fun. Carrell and Hathaway are both charming enough so they almost carry it off but not quite.
two thumbs up
Next time more jokes please
So it is entertaining
But just not funny
