The movie

When the criminal organisation KAOS threatens world peace, the man of the hour must be found! It is Maxell Smart, the most phlegmatic and the most useless secret agent in the history of spying. With the support of the irresistible agent 99 and the Herculean agent 23, he embarks on a series of incredible blunders and causes catastrophe after catastrophe. Adapted from Mel Brook’s famous TV series, Get Smart (Max la Menace in French) accumulates the assets, beginning with an unexpected cast (Steve Carrell, Dwayne « The Rock » Johnson, Anne Hathaway, Terence Stamp) and working with an inexhaustible stock of situations to parody, inherited from hundreds of spy movies. The result is an elegant comedy with a record number of jokes per hour.
