Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Justin_Ian Two under-appreciated patriotic techno-weinies, including Masi Oka, that team up with the cute, but smelly, Jayma Mays to save the country is a recipe for success. Their ruthless overlord of a boss, played by comic legend Larry Miller, drains the joy from their otherwise pay-to-play careers at Control as they cope with a situation while the "real" agents 99 and 86 are out of the country on a mission. A spin off that starts with less talent than many major motion pictures successfully combines the time-tested formula of geeks-with-babes to forge an ode to the behind-the-scenes underdogs that, despite themselves, manage to save the day.

Costiputza I don't understand why peoples hate this movie. OK is not a Oscar winning but is not as bad as many others, say for example Quarantine and by far is not the worst film. Is entertaining, funny and you don't feel that you have lost one hour of your life. Problem with peoples writing about a movie or another is that you can't trust anybody, good movies listed as sheet and bad movies (and I mean really bad) commented as hors d'oeuvres. Let's try not to judge movies about our expectations, or even if they follow closely or not the action described in a book. If a movie is entertaining and get you in the right mood is OK. Don't expect that a movie cook the meal for you, or change your life, or take your child to the school. Just to worth seeing and make you smile, and from time to time finding a real gem. And don't forget, we need sometime a easy one, not a Titanic (which by the way didn't like it), just something to pass the time, or amusing about dumbness of other human being.

zardoz-13 Warner Brothers' "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" represents a shrewd marketing tie-in ploy with the studio's big-budget Steve Carell revival of the Don Adams classic sitcom to attract viewers. Bruce (Masi Oka of "Heroes") and Lloyd (Nate Torrence of "Marksman") serve as CONTROL's equivalent of Q—the armor who furnishes gadgets to James Bond—in most of the 007 escapades. Bruce and Lloyd create gadgets for their field agents. Most of the time, these gadgets malfunction as exemplified by the 'cone of silence' in "Get Smart." Incidentally, Steve Carell doesn't appear in "Out of Control," but Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway of "Havoc") puts in a cameo and complains about these two geeks giving Max all the cool gadgets while she gets none.This hare-brained 71 minute comedy with these two klutz-ups is sporadically funny, but never consistently hilarious. Bruce and Lloyd are sympathetic losers that we want to see win and they appear on the verge of their greatest triumph. They have developed what they call 'Optical Camouflage Technology' or a cloak that makes the wearer invisible. Initially, the major problem is the short-life of the battery. The Underchief (Larry Miller of "The Nutty Professor") is Bruce and Lloyd's boss. He is constantly breathing down their necks like a quasi-villain to goad them into perfecting the OCT. "Failure to Launch" scenarists Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember ramp up the suspense when somebody steals the invisibility cloak and our heroes run amok trying to retrieve it. A subplot about a man abducted by a ruthless dictator of a fictional nation, the Republic of Maraguay, a small angry nation sandwiched between Paraguay and Uruguary, complicates the issue. Meanwhile, although they aren't qualified for field work, Bruce and Lloyd tangle with the CIA and other henchmen to recover their greatest invention. One of the tiresome gags in this lame comedy is that everybody confuses Bruce for Lloyd and Lloyd for Bruce."Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" is an outrageously priced DVD that contains few special features, and there is nothing special about the plot. Masi Oka and Nate Torrence are fun to watch, but they rarely blurt out sidesplitting dialogue and the plot is terminally predictable. Larry Miller gets the best line when he warns Lloyd about the repercussions should he fail to supply him with the OCT. "There's an old Navy expression. If I go down, you go down on me." The malapropism here is perfect and Miller delivers it without a self-conscious wink! Presumably, when Warner Brothers made "Get Smart," they must have filmed too much footage and had to decide what to do with the surfeit. The unfortunate thing about "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" is that a lot of people are going to buy this substandard movie with the mistaken assumption that it boasts additional footage of Steve Carell. Again, Steve Carell doesn't appear in this spin-off spoof. Perhaps the ultimate insult is the movie ticket that comes packaged in "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control." The ticket carries a value of only $7.00 making it useful only for a matinée, talk about cheap! Altogether, this item works on the level of an inferior National Lampoon video.

inkerrh Well it's OK. I really wanted this movie to be great. It's not great. I see the setup, I see how it could have been good but it falls far short. The dialogue is just blah. Every scene feels like it could have been a lot funnier but it was missing something. Maybe a few more takes would have helped. Not that it's parent movie Get Smart was much better so it's not surprising.Fairly lame and only average for a straight to DVD movie.****What was great....the scenes with Patrick Wharburton! The real smash-em, physical stunts, and overall Three Stooges type of comedy did succeed! Just needed a lot more of that a less dry humor that fell flat. I really don't know why Himey didn't have a starring role in this movie. Especially since the successful gags were his scenes! Overall it's a lame movie that really should have been better, a lot better. All the characters are cool, enjoyable but just flat, not funny. Like a sitcom that has potential but just needs to be reworked to be funny. Get Smart needed Himey in it's story to be better and Bruce and Loyd can't even get off the tarmac Himey less.
