Trailers from Hell: Alan Spencer on ‘The Nude Bomb,’ Starring Don Adams as Maxwell Smart

Hot & Cold War Comedy! week continues at Trailers from Hell with TV writer Alan Spencer introducing “The Nude Bomb,” a belated attempt to turn “Get Smart” into a feature film that was a surprise hit at the box office.

Brit Clive Donner may have seemed an odd choice to direct, but in all probability nobody else would have been able to impose much personality on this generic Universal Studios project, which plays out pretty much like a TV movie despite the strenuous efforts of star Don Adams and some occasionally funny supporting players. Fans of the show still like this one, though.
