Bumbling R&D inventors Bruce and Lloyd get out of the lab and into the field as they search to locate their latest invention - which has somehow gone missing. When you're used to spending your day inventing the most cutting edge spy equipment known to man, adapting the stealth and guile needed to become a true secret agent doesn't come naturally. Unfortunately the invisibility cloak that the pair recently collaborated on has disappeared, and in order to ensure that it doesn't fall into the hands of KAOS they will have to master the skills of a true spy. But how exactly does one find an object that's invisible to begin with? As the search gets underway, these brainy inventors are given an eye-opening crash course in high-level espionage.

Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd Out of Control Audience Reviews

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Costiputza I don't understand why peoples hate this movie. OK is not a Oscar winning but is not as bad as many others, say for example Quarantine and by far is not the worst film. Is entertaining, funny and you don't feel that you have lost one hour of your life. Problem with peoples writing about a movie or another is that you can't trust anybody, good movies listed as sheet and bad movies (and I mean really bad) commented as hors d'oeuvres. Let's try not to judge movies about our expectations, or even if they follow closely or not the action described in a book. If a movie is entertaining and get you in the right mood is OK. Don't expect that a movie cook the meal for you, or change your life, or take your child to the school. Just to worth seeing and make you smile, and from time to time finding a real gem. And don't forget, we need sometime a easy one, not a Titanic (which by the way didn't like it), just something to pass the time, or amusing about dumbness of other human being.
zardoz-13 Warner Brothers' "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" represents a shrewd marketing tie-in ploy with the studio's big-budget Steve Carell revival of the Don Adams classic sitcom to attract viewers. Bruce (Masi Oka of "Heroes") and Lloyd (Nate Torrence of "Marksman") serve as CONTROL's equivalent of Q—the armor who furnishes gadgets to James Bond—in most of the 007 escapades. Bruce and Lloyd create gadgets for their field agents. Most of the time, these gadgets malfunction as exemplified by the 'cone of silence' in "Get Smart." Incidentally, Steve Carell doesn't appear in "Out of Control," but Agent 99 (Anne Hathaway of "Havoc") puts in a cameo and complains about these two geeks giving Max all the cool gadgets while she gets none.This hare-brained 71 minute comedy with these two klutz-ups is sporadically funny, but never consistently hilarious. Bruce and Lloyd are sympathetic losers that we want to see win and they appear on the verge of their greatest triumph. They have developed what they call 'Optical Camouflage Technology' or a cloak that makes the wearer invisible. Initially, the major problem is the short-life of the battery. The Underchief (Larry Miller of "The Nutty Professor") is Bruce and Lloyd's boss. He is constantly breathing down their necks like a quasi-villain to goad them into perfecting the OCT. "Failure to Launch" scenarists Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember ramp up the suspense when somebody steals the invisibility cloak and our heroes run amok trying to retrieve it. A subplot about a man abducted by a ruthless dictator of a fictional nation, the Republic of Maraguay, a small angry nation sandwiched between Paraguay and Uruguary, complicates the issue. Meanwhile, although they aren't qualified for field work, Bruce and Lloyd tangle with the CIA and other henchmen to recover their greatest invention. One of the tiresome gags in this lame comedy is that everybody confuses Bruce for Lloyd and Lloyd for Bruce."Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" is an outrageously priced DVD that contains few special features, and there is nothing special about the plot. Masi Oka and Nate Torrence are fun to watch, but they rarely blurt out sidesplitting dialogue and the plot is terminally predictable. Larry Miller gets the best line when he warns Lloyd about the repercussions should he fail to supply him with the OCT. "There's an old Navy expression. If I go down, you go down on me." The malapropism here is perfect and Miller delivers it without a self-conscious wink! Presumably, when Warner Brothers made "Get Smart," they must have filmed too much footage and had to decide what to do with the surfeit. The unfortunate thing about "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control" is that a lot of people are going to buy this substandard movie with the mistaken assumption that it boasts additional footage of Steve Carell. Again, Steve Carell doesn't appear in this spin-off spoof. Perhaps the ultimate insult is the movie ticket that comes packaged in "Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control." The ticket carries a value of only $7.00 making it useful only for a matinée, talk about cheap! Altogether, this item works on the level of an inferior National Lampoon video.
andrew-552 This spin-off from the new, "Get Smart," movie more closely resembles one of those episodes of shows like, "CSI," where they focus on the secondary, or even lesser,characters, with the producers harping on about how these are, "wonderful actors," with, "great characters," that need to be given the chance to, "shine," when in fact we all know it's because the real stars wanted a week off. There's a reason those actors and characters aren't the leads, and the same goes for this movie.Although, I think you'd be hard pressed calling it a, "movie," considering the run time is listed as 72 minutes when, in fact, the actual movie itself barely lasts an hour (another way it's like a TV episode) with the end credits being stretched out ever.... so.... slowly and various average outtakes and scenes not actually in the movie, but obviously intended to be, spliced into them. If the scenes are, "funny," enough to go in the end credits why the heck are't they IN the movie? Having said that, it's mildly amusing without ever being hilarious but hardly worthy of it's own release onto DVD. Unless you're a movie studio looking to suck every last dollar out of your new Summer Blockbuster. Stand up Warner Bros! The best thing in it is Larry Miller, who has the best lines in the film (which might be damning him with faint praise but at least they made me laugh). And I'm including the end credits in that. That way I can sell this review as, "Feature Length."
inkerrh Well it's OK. I really wanted this movie to be great. It's not great. I see the setup, I see how it could have been good but it falls far short. The dialogue is just blah. Every scene feels like it could have been a lot funnier but it was missing something. Maybe a few more takes would have helped. Not that it's parent movie Get Smart was much better so it's not surprising.Fairly lame and only average for a straight to DVD movie.****What was great....the scenes with Patrick Wharburton! The real smash-em, physical stunts, and overall Three Stooges type of comedy did succeed! Just needed a lot more of that a less dry humor that fell flat. I really don't know why Himey didn't have a starring role in this movie. Especially since the successful gags were his scenes! Overall it's a lame movie that really should have been better, a lot better. All the characters are cool, enjoyable but just flat, not funny. Like a sitcom that has potential but just needs to be reworked to be funny. Get Smart needed Himey in it's story to be better and Bruce and Loyd can't even get off the tarmac Himey less.
