This is way a reunion movie should be done! Quick explanation of where everyone has been in the past 20 years and on with a new adventure. The plot is familiar, KAOS has a weather machine to alter the climate with a ransom demand of $250 Billion not to unleash its fury. It falls to Maxwell Smart to be reactivated stop KAOS.All of the gang is back except for Ed Platt as Chief. The gags and jokes that were gems include Smart answering his shoe phone as a pallbearer,the Hall of Hush to thwarting a hit-man with remote controlled file cabinets to Hymie taking every order literally. Few of the gags and jokes fall flat, unlike nearly all comedies now as they reach . Don Adams was still spot on with the catch phrases, one liners and quite amazing with the physical comedy at age 66. Harold Gould does the villain role in his unique style and John de Lancie as Maj. Waterhouse was great. Hymie and Larrabbee were fabulous as if nothing had changed after 20 years. Agent 99 Barbara Feldon didn't miss a beat as the comic foil and looked as lovely as ever, who I had a crush on when the show was first on the air. If you're reading this Barbara, don't have anything to do for a Saturday night and like dating guys 50 years younger, (or would you believe 24 years younger?), go and contact me.The movie has a few minor issues, Kenneth Mars as Commander Drury doesn't pull off the exasperated Chief role as Ed Platt would had done, Bernie Koppell Siegfried's comic timing wasn't as sharp as it could had been and Don Adams looked rather ill in a few scenes. The movie should have had a laugh track and Get Smart music in keeping with the TV series.It's a real shame that this movie isn't remastered to restore the fading of VHS transfer, (Digitally touching up Don Adams, adding the laugh track & music would be a bonus.) This is an underrated gem (far better than the Steve Carrell remake) that stacks up with the best comedy movies.

"Get Smart, Again" rights the ship that had listed badly with "The Nude Bomb" nine years earlier.For whatever reasons, the late great Don Adams and Robert Karvelas as Larribee were the only series regulars to star in the earlier film (Bill Dana and Joey Forman had small roles).This time around, the gang's all here, except Ed Platt who died in 1974, and they haven't lost a step. All those dumb, idiotic, wonderful jokes are there; the timing is there; the characters are there. It's all there and it's all wonderful.For fans, this is a joyful trip back down memory lane. Viewers new to the insanity will be curious to check out the classic series."Would you believe...." Yes, we would.

A hilarious recycling of their best jokes, gags, situations. All the actors (except for the late Ed "the Chief" Platt) are back and consistently maintain their original characters from the TV series. This is also far superior to other TV special "reunion" shows where nothing really happens except maybe flashbacks. Don't miss it!("by this much").

How come that a extremely good series would not have its twenty years later revival. A must for the real fan. I enjoyed it, but somehow it was like seeing a bunch of old clowns, repeating old jokes (well, I guess it was exactly that), but the jokes were not funny anymore.If you didn't like the series, this is not the movie for you. If you liked the series, as much as I did, this is a must, but don't set too high your expectations, it's a thing for remembering and enjoying.
