Get Smart

Trevor Rabin has composed the wonderfully exciting score that looks back to the era of the classic television show, cleverly incorporating the famous original theme into his trademark contemporary style. Maxwell Smart (Steve Carell) is on a mission to thwart the latest plot for world domination by the evil crime syndicate known as KAOS. When the headquarters of U.S. spy agency Control is attacked and the identities of its agents compromised, the Chief (Alan Arkin) has no choice but to promote his ever-eager analyst Maxwell Smart, who has always dreamt of working in the field alongside stalwart superstar Agent 23 (Dwayne Johnson). Smart is partnered instead with the lovely-but-lethal veteran Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway). Given little field experience and even less time, Smart is armed with nothing but a few spy-tech gadgets and his unbridled enthusiasm must foil the doomsday plans of KAOS head Siegfried (Terence Stamp).

Buy this CD, if you are smart.

If you are smart, buy this movie's soundtrack. It is because it is so great and exciting. When I am listening, I will have the funny and the spying feelings. All the tracks are very great and decent. Just try, and you will like it. November 14, 2008

Fun Fun

I found Get Smart to be a very fun soundtrack; lots of catchy themes and also some nice slower parts. October 24, 2008

Gets repetitive

I purchased this album because the music was composed by Trevor Rabin. The opening Track "Smart Dreams" is classic Rabin; "smart" and melodic with Rabin's trademark rock punch.

However, there are five versions of the "Get Smart" theme which gets repetitive. One version is enough for me. So unless you are in love with the theme song, you may want to skip this album.

I still gave it three stars because I love anything Rabin does. August 13, 2008

Get smart and buy this music!

Trevor Rabin's music is just awesome! National Treasure, Snakes on a Plane, and Armageddon are my 3 favorites, but now I think I'll have to add Get Smart to the list. This music is so fun, it might just be one of the best this year!

If you've seen the previews, then you've heard some of the music. Its a catchy little theme, sort of like 007 or Mission Impossible. And if you're into that music, the sort of secret agent/spy stuff, then definately buy Get Smart. Just know that this music doesn't take itself too seriously, when David Arnold's Casino Royale did.

The only problem: there's just not enough music! I want more more more!!! June 19, 2008
