Missed It By That Much...




Holy cow! We went to see Get Smart this past Saturday and it was hilarious! It is rare that a funny movie comes out and the trailer doesn't give away all the good parts, but this wasn't one of those times. In fact, I think the trailer showed the least funny parts. I am seriously considering paying full price to go see it again rather than merely waiting for the dollar theatres. Jared and I are in Idaho right now and we went with his parents, his brothers, Matt, Chris, and Tyler, and Tyler's fiancee, Karissa. I haven't heard Jared laugh so much in a long time. Steve Carell landed the part of Maxwell Smart so well, even down to the same voice inflections at times as the original TV series. Anne Hathaway was beautiful and charming as well as the comedianne that I loved in her when I first saw Princess Diaries. I will definiely see this movie again and definitely own it when it comes out. I encourage all of you to go see this movie. My favorite line? "Are you thinking what I'm thinking, chief?..." I won't ruin it for you guys, you'll know the line when you hear it.

Thanks for the review, I was afraid of what this movie would end up like, but now maybe I'll give it a chance. It has been getting mixed reviews, but on the trailer with the beaded curtain... *dies*

Yes, Sam! I totally agree, we went to see it this last weekend and were so pleasantly surprised. Loved it, would recommend it to anyone. So glad you all loved it to. Have fun loving on that baby for us,
