AUSTIN POWERS: INTERNATION MAN OF INTRIGUE(1997):


This is not the best of movies, tho it does have some humor!
It's trying to make fun of the spy movies like Bond, but it's a
lot of slapstick, which wears thin quickly! But it does have the
redeaming quality of having Robert Wagner in it, who is pretty
funny in this!! C+

From a reviewer at Amazon.com:

If you don't think Austin Powers is one of the funniest movies
of the 1990s, maybe you should be packed into a cryogenic
time chamber and sent back to the decade whence you came.
Perhaps it was the 1960s--the shagadelic decade when London
hipster Austin Powers scored with gorgeous chicks as a fashion
photographer by day, crime-fighting international man of mystery
by night. Yeah, baby, yeah! But when Powers's arch nemesis,
Dr. Evil, puts himself into a deep-freeze and travels via time
machine to the late 1990s, Powers must follow him and foil
Evil's nefarious scheme of global domination. Mike Myers
plays dual roles as Powers and Dr. Evil, with Elizabeth Hurley
as his present-day sidekick and karate-kicking paramour. A
hilarious spoof of '60s spy movies, this colorful comedy
actually gets funnier with successive viewings, making it a
perfect home video for gloomy days and randy nights. Oh,
behave! --Jeff Shannon

AUSTIN POWERS2: THE SPY WHO SHAGGED ME(1999):


No better than the first to me! C

From a reviewer at Amazon.com:

"I put the grrr in swinger, baby!" a deliciously randy
Austin Powers coos near the beginning of The Spy Who
Shagged Me, and if the imagination of Austin creator
Mike Myers seems to have sagged a bit, his energy surely
hasn't. This friendly, go-for-broke sequel to 1997's Austin
Powers: International Man of Mystery finds our man Austin
heading back to the '60s to keep perennial nemesis Dr. Evil
(Myers again) from blowing up the world--and, more
importantly, to get back his mojo, that man-juice that
turns Austin into irresistible catnip for women, especially
American spygirl Felicity Shagwell (a pretty but vacant
Heather Graham). The plot may be irreverent and illogical,
the jokes may be bad (with characters named Ivana
Humpalot and Robin Swallows, nee Spitz), and the
scenes may run on too long, but it's all delivered sunnily
and with tongue firmly in cheek.

Myers's true triumph, though, is his turn as the neurotic
Dr. Evil, who tends to spout the right cultural reference
at exactly the wrong time (referring to his moon base as
a "Death Star" with Moon Units Alpha and Zappa--in 1969).
Myers teams Dr. Evil with a diminutive clone, Mini-Me
(Verne J. Troyer), who soon replaces slacker son Scott
Evil (Seth Green) as the apple of the doctor's eye; Myers
and Troyer work magic in what could plausibly be one of
the year's most affecting (and hysterically funny) love
stories. Despite a stellar supporting cast--including a
sly Rob Lowe as Robert Wagner's younger self and Mindy
Sterling as the forbidding Frau Farbissina--it's basically
Myers's show, and he pulls a hat trick by playing a third
character, the obese and disgusting Scottish assassin Fat
Bastard. Many viewers will reel in disgust at Mr. Bastard's
repulsive antics and the scatological bent Myers indulges
in, including one showstopper involving coffee and--shudder
-a stool sample. Still, Myers's good humor and dead-on
cultural references win the day; Austin is one spy who
proves he can still shag like a minx. --Mark Englehart

AUSTIN POWERS 3: GOLDMEMBER(2002):


A perfect 3 for 3!! C

From a reviewer at Amazon.com:

Despite symptoms of sequelitis, Austin Powers in
Goldmember is must-see lunacy for devoted fans
of the shagadelic franchise. Unfortunately, the law
of diminishing returns is in full effect: for every
big-name cameo and raunchy double-entendre,
there's an equal share of redundant shtick, juvenile
scatology, and pop-cultural spoofery. All is forgiven
when the hilarity level is consistently high, and Mike
Myers--returning here as randy Brit spy Austin, his
nemesis Dr. Evil, the bloated Scottish henchman
Fat Bastard, and new Dutch disco-villain Goldmember
--thrives by favoring comedic chaos over coherent
plotting. Once they've tossed Austin into the disco
fever of 1975 (where he's sent to rescue his father,
gamely played by Michael Caine), Myers and director
Jay Roach seem vaguely adrift with old and new
characters, including Verne Troyer's Mini-Me and pop
star Beyonce Knowles as Pam Grier-ish blaxpo-babe
Foxxy Cleopatra. A bit tired, perhaps, but Powers
hasn't lost his mojo. --Jeff Shannon
