Looks good!

If the writing for their characters in this spinoff is anywhere near as good as it was in the Get Smart movie, this will turn out to be a good straight to DVD addition. Although thinking any STDVD as good just feels weird (unless its an SG1 movie). I do find it funny that the first I heard of it was on a TV ad today which I saw not 10 min after getting back from seeing Get Smart at the theatre, Anne Hathaway was HOT in Havoc (as a movie Havoc sucked but she made it worth seeing).

I liked it.

The sense of humor and vibe were on the same level as the Get Smart movie. This movie was the B team, without the huge name stars.

No two persons ever watch the same movie.

i somewhat enjoyed this, but i disagree with the statement above that the writing/feel was anywhere near the level of the Get Smart movie... Get Smart was pretty much on the mark for me, but Bruce & Lloyd "missed it by that much"...

I enjoyed it very much! LMAO!
...would you believe...two chuckles and a slight groan...?

Kind of a nerdy verson of Harold & Kumar. The gags were quick, the gadgets were funnny, it was a good fun show. Better than most TV movies. The director was spot-on with the physical comedy. The only thing it doesn't have is WHAM! BANG! action and effects, but it has lots of little goofy stunts that really work, so it was a fun pic for me!

The only thing I didn't like were the very obvious footage inserts from Get Smart to make it occur during the same time frame, and the Anne Hathaway cameo was just horrendous. Oh, well...
