Would you believe...

While it may not seem I'm part of the generation that would appreciate this, I'm a big fan of Get Smart. I watched it on Nick-at-Night as a kid, and of course also liked it's animated counterpart Inspector Gadget. I was excited that they were making a movie of it, but a little worried they would mess it up, as they did to so many others. Thankfully, the new movie was great. Steve Carell didn't try to mimic too much (he used his regular voice) and played a smarter, nerdier, more competent but still bumbling Agent 86.
The plot was predictable. The villains were caricatures. But it was still a lot of fun.
