GET SMART (2008)
SYNOPSIS
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-armed with nothing but a few
spy-tech gadgets and his unbridled
enthusiasm-must thwart the doomsday plans of
KAOS head Siegfried (Terence Stamp). --© Warner

The Chronicles of Narina: Prince Caspian is a retread of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, Witch and
the Wardrobe. Now the villian is King Miraz (Sergio Castellitto), who is has taken over Narnia . When the
four Pevensie children (William Mosely, Anna Popplewell, Skandar Keynes, and Georgia Henley) return,
they find themselves paired with Miraz' nemesis nephew, Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes), to help restore
peace in the kingdom, thus bringing the "extinct" Narnians out of hiding to fight Mariz's army and search
for Asian, their lion. The detailed special effect and sweeping landscapes featured are beautiful to
watch and the four young actors once again give top notch performances. Prince Caspian running time
is a L O N G 144 minutes, 30 minutes of fighting could have been eliminated making the sequel easier to
sit through. We will have to wait until 2010 for C. S. Lewis' third novel, "The Voyage of the Dawn
Treader" which has already begun production
