"Get Smart" is a 2008 action comedy film directed by Peter Segal and starring Steve Carell and Anne Hathaway. The movie is based on the television series of the same name, which aired in the 1960s.

The movie follows the adventures of Maxwell Smart (Steve Carell), a bumbling analyst for the spy agency CONTROL who dreams of becoming a field agent. When CONTROL's headquarters is attacked and its agents' identities are compromised, Smart is paired with the more experienced Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway) to track down the mastermind behind the attack, a villain named Siegfried (Terence Stamp).

As Smart and Agent 99 work together to stop Siegfried's plans, they face a variety of challenges and obstacles, including Smart's lack of field experience and his tendency to rely on outdated spy gadgets. Along the way, they are also aided by Agent 23 (Dwayne Johnson), who becomes a rival to Smart for Agent 99's affection.

"Get Smart" was generally well-received by critics and audiences, who praised the performances of Carell and Hathaway and the film's blend of action and comedy. The movie was a box office success, grossing over $230 million worldwide.
