review

"empty your mind and meditate on the natural world,
the cricking cicadas, the scraping palmetto bug, rustling skirts,
zipping zips, peeling bananas"

^
^>>>oops


forgot what came after that. short term memory loss
as excuses . release a smoke bomb in a room. steve terrel's get
smart takes a melbrooksian sitcom and
tries to make it sexy as only disney can.
anne hathaway would not be in a film where
shit was not euphemised as poop so pop
n mom won't feel bad about takin the wee
one with blankie and binky
to the late show. you know how sitters
are these days. i did that once
by myself without my husband. we saw disney's
aladdin. the first one. before there was
a plush doll of the genie replete
with robin william voce, try it!!!
pull me-------------->

the movie sends up itself as well as modern
cultural icons with its retro moralizing.
maxwell smart, in his bumbling never
say die way, is a mensch. who has an
extraordinary attention
to detail. he's the kind of control
operative that learned to eat pussy
from reading a book, but he'd
never tell you that on the first
operation. he'll fight a rat
in his pants to make sure you both
get thru the laser beam security bars
without tipping off god in his
security tower of kaos lover
wearing radioactivity.
the digs at the president were less
"let's hang the bastard"y
than "how did this fool
get to be president"y . in the twenty
first century, it's all about connecting
with your enemy
by knowing, in a spy satellite way,
the intimate details of her life.
can we say myspace, anyone?

i wanted to continue
but i feel a sleep coming on.

enjoyed the edge
