Get Smart

When Control has been attacked the chief (Arkin) had to promote analyst Max Smart (Steve Carell) to discover KAOS' master plan against the nation.
 I was incredibly pleased that Carell did not go overboard with the comedy and goofiness. I was expecting him to be Michael Scott from The Office, tenfold. But no, he kept it very accurate to the originals, or so I am told-- I have not seen the TV show.
 Anne Hathaway was hilarious especially after claiming she is an older agent with plastic surgery. It made it weird to think she was hot.
 Great movie, entertaining.

House [M.D.]

Hugh Laurie is House. A smart-ass that doesn't care much for anyone but himself. He is in fact, an amazing doctor and saves many lives. He is rather obsessive about finding symptoms.
Leading some new doctors on investigations to helps save patients with symptoms that usually rule out any probable diseases.
The only negative part about the show is that each episode as the same format. A person gets hurt, but wait it's the person that's with that person who gets the bad symptom. Then he is admitted to the hospital, and House thinks he has something no one else believes he has. They all list a whole lot of things it could be, but each on leaves out a symptom. And then the patient gets another symptom that rules out a ton of diseases, but opens doors for other sicknesses. And then another weird symptom, and then they figure it out!! 
Really that makes it sound bad, but it is a great show, great for several laughs and some interesting ideas. And the student doctor person named Thirteen, played by Olivia Wilde, is beautiful. Haha. Watch this show.

Leatherheads

        A movie with George Clooney and John Kransinki. If you watch the office and have seen Clooney in Ocean's 11-13, you must have figured out that they would be a good pair with their wit and humor style. But no. It sucked. Based on the beginning of football becoming pro, it really had nowhere to go. It was just about how Clooney wanted to make a good team and John Kransinki was lying about some war-hero story.  Fairly boring except for a few good lines.
Oh my gosh, I forgot to remind you that Renee Zelweger is in it? Oops guess not. Oh well. She was gross and ugly as she ever is. She had a few good lines with George Clooney but that was it.
