Summary Judgment: Get Smart vs. Love Guru
Writer Mark Jordan Legan casts a "Summary Judgment" on three films out this weekend. The new Steve Carell film adaptation of the TV show Get Smart lacks punch, most critics say. The latest Abigail Breslin film, Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, is more engaging. The Mike Myers comedy The Love Guru, however, is perhaps the least likely to be your Mr. Right.
