Review of The Nude Bomb

The Nude Bomb (1980)
1/10
Ugh
9 December 1998
The worst part about this movie is that it is an insult to what was a very clever series. And one does not have to go far to find the reason why. GET SMART worked because it had an excellent ensemble cast: Don Adams as Maxwell Smart, Barbara Feldon as 99, Edward Platt as The Chief, Bernie Kopel as Siegfried, Dick Gautier as Hymie the Robot, etc. All were missing from NUDE BOMB, with the obvious exception of Don Adams. Without the rest of the team, Adams seemed like a fish out of water. The plot does not help make up for the shortfall either as it is juvenile in the extreme. Don't bother with this one. If you want to see a true GET SMART reunion then watch GET SMART...AGAIN! which has all the surviving cast members in their old roles. And as a nice touch, it was dedicated to Edward Platt, who died in the early 70s shortly after the original series left the air.
