Get Smart, Again! (1989 TV Movie)
7/10
I know if I'd like this or not
21 June 2023
I feel pretty comfortable giving this show a rating after watching it only half way through... if I'm wrong, I'll come back and edit this.

WILL YOU LIKE THIS MOVIE?

Easy answer and answered with a question:

DO YOU LIKE THE REPEATED AND PREDICTABLE HUMOR OF THE ORIGINAL TV SERIES?

This isn't sarcasm... it's series.

This movies takes the old running jokes from the original show , recycles them, brings them together, and adds a slight riches context to them.

So, it you liked watching all those running gags, I'm sure you'll like this movie.

If you disliked like those running gags, you're going to hate this.

But what if you're not even familiar with the old show?

Unfortunately, it's seems like you won't like it. In part, because running jokes aren't even running jokes the first time you use them, in part because they rely on the nostalgia of the show to make this work.

That only leaves whether or not the ending is good enough that it can save the film. Ok... I didn't watch the ending yet. So in that rare case, I don't know.

But I want to post this as a "non-spoiler" review, so guess what, you'll either to have to take your changes with another review if that's what you need to know.

But for most people, I think I've already told you if you're going to like this or not. :-)

Oh... I said I might come back to change this review based on the ending... if I don't probably just assume it's neither so wonderfully good or amazing bad that it's would change anything I wrote above. Assume it's somewhere between "Eh", and "Wow pretty good, I didn't see that coming." But it if it is that range, I that's the only reason I'm not going to leave this review as is. :-)
