XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

david-sarkies What I want to know is how can a picture called the Nude Bomb could get a PG rating. Yeah, I would actually like to know this. This quote is the quote that appears at the beginning of this movie and it is the one thing that stuck in my mind when I first saw it years ago. Personally I think that the Nude Bomb is a classic for the reason of this one statement, though when we do go to watch it there are numerous other aspects with make quite classy in itself.The Nude Bomb is a movie about a secret agent named Maxwell Smart, the famous agent from the series Get Smart. Now I do not have the information as to the dates of the series, but what I do know is that what occurs in this movie comes straight from the series. We have Smart's infamous shoe phone, his quotes, his clumsiness, and his attempt to intimidate the bad guys by telling them that they are surrounded by good guys. The funny thing about Smart is that the guy is so stupid that he will never admit defeat. It is not that he is strong and confident about his strength, but rather that he believes that the most stupid of statements is liable to go his way. The bizarre thing is that they generally delay the bad guys long enough for reinforcements to arrive. Oh, and they also have the cone of silence.Kaos, the international organisation of evil has devised a bomb to turn the world nude and demand a ransom of 20 billion dollars. In fact they decide to charge the world rent. The curious thing about that is that firstly Max does not believe in the existence of a nude bomb, and secondly they seem to look on the bright side of things.I can't remember much about the series, but the only original actors are Maxwell Smart (Don Adams), Laramy, and I think Agent 13, the one that seems to hide in those ridiculous places. Agent 99 (who later becomes Max's wife) is replaced with Agent 22 and the movie develops a bit of a romantic thing there which is more of a payout to James Bond than anything else.I guess if you like Get Smart then you should like the Nude Bomb. My sister didn't like it, and she is a Get Smart fan. I haven't really watched the series for a while, but thought that this movie was great. Especially the quote at the beginning.

justicegirl Being a fan of the "Get Smart" TV show since I was a teen, I actively sought out this movie at the rental store. I was, needless to say, disappointed.The plot revolves around a destructive weapon that would destroy all clothing, hence the title of the movie "The Nude Bomb." Now, I'm OK with an absurd plot, because it's supposed to be parody. The "Get Smart" TV series did a great job of poking fun at the James Bond mystique, long before Austin Powers.There are several strikes against this movie. First, and most importantly, Barbara Feldon, the actress who played Agent 99 in the TV series is nowhere to be found. A huge part of the appeal of "Get Smart" was the chemistry between 86 and 99. None here. Second, the movie came out ten full years after the TV show ended. What may have been funny in 1970 was not so much in 1980.I expect more from Mel Brooks. Especially since this came out in the same year as "History of the World, Part 1," another Mel Brooks film For a better Maxwell Smart/Mel Brooks fix, go to the old series, see "History of the World Part I" or check out Inspector Gadget.

Pelrad Like the Austin Powers movies, "Get Smart" is a spoof of spy movies like the James Bond series, and "The Nude Bomb", made at the height of the Cold War, in the early 1980s, concerns Maxwell Smart, Agent 86, the guy with the shoe phone, pursuing the madman who has developed a bomb that, if exploded, would render everyone without clothes. This is an underrated movie and works well even with the absence of the original supporting cast from the 1960s television series. Almost, but not quite as funny as "The Naked Gun". 8/10

TV Boy Okay, I was 11 when I first saw The Nude Bomb -- it was on HBO, I taped it and watched it over and over and over and over again. A huge fan of Get Smart, yes, I was disappointed Don Adams was the only original from the series. But I do remember enjoying the film's opening - a spoof of the Bond-films, with women fawning over Smart as a hokey ballad played over the credits. And of course, Sylvia Kristel ... need I say more.
