Editorial Review: Description: The most colorful special agent, Austin Powers, will keep you laughing as he thwarts the efforts of the infamous Dr. Evil in this 3-pack of instant classic comedies. Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery; Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me; Austin Powers in Goldmember Amazon.com: If you don't think Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997) 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! "I put the grrr in swinger, baby!" a deliciously randy Powers coos near the beginning of The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999), 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 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, and the scenes may run on too long, but it's all delivered sunnily and with tongue firmly in cheek. Myers teams Dr. Evil with a diminutive clone, Mini-Me (Verne J. Troyer), then pulls a hat trick by playing a third character, the obese and disgusting Scottish assassin Fat Bastard. Despite symptoms of sequelitis, Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) 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 Beyoncé Knowles as Pam Grier-ish blaxpo-babe Foxxy Cleopatra. A bit tired, perhaps, but Powers hasn't lost his mojo. Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Totally Shagadelic, baby...I must admit that when I first saw the initial Austin Powers movie, I didn't really quite get it. And I didn't really like it as well. However, in retrospect, I must also admit that my feelings about the first movie (and sequels) slowly changed as I realized that really, this series of movies were/are not so much parodies of the James Bond films, but parodies of lesser known, earlier spy film lampoons and exotic, comedic spin-offs such as James Coburn's "In Like Flint" and "Our Man Flint," the Matt Helm (Dean Martin) efforts, and so forth. If you have casually seen a few or most of the "serious" James Bond films, you might not get this important aspect, as I seemingly did not at first, because while the Austin Powers films are supposed satires ... Read More: Rating: - Yeah baby!This triple pack of Austin Powers includes all three movies and boy it's definitely worth the price. My favorite of the trilogy is the last one, Goldmember, that one is hilarious and has the most outlandish jokes. This is a great gift idea, a must-have. Buy it today! Rating:  - Austin Powers 1-3 setThe movies are excellent and in great condition. I liked the 2nd and 3rd ones the best, but to truly appreciate those, the 1st one is necessary :) A good deal through amazon. I am pleased with my purchases. Rating: - Austin PowersI received all three Austin Powers movies unlike the last package I received with one missing. They were all in good shape. Rating: - We love Mini-Me!!These movies are great fun to watch with our teenage kids. Even though they are from the 90's they are still hillarious! After watching one of them, our family imitates the characters and we have lots of silly fun .... The world needs more silly fun!! |
