Rating: Summary: Awful Review: Austin Powers was funny once, but once was enough. The sequel is lifeless and strange. If watching someone drink a glass of their own...well I won't ruin the big "surprise" -- but if anyone can get past that scene without ripping their VCR out of the wall then more power to 'em. Me, I turned it off and went to bed. A tired, humorless, grotesque movie that plays like a SNL skit gone too long. And I'm actually a fan of Mike Myers. Oh well.
Rating: Summary: Hilarious Review: Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery Austin Powers was England's #1 spy back in the 60's, but he was frozen in '67 because the world's greatest terrorsist froze himself to come back later. It's now 1997, and they're both back, one to take over the world, and the other to save it. This movie is a spoof of the James Bond series, and it's a darn good one. Dr. Evil steals a warhead and a subterranean drill and plans to detonate it at the center of the Earth, and only Austin and his partner Vanessa can save him. This is a hilarious movie, and Mike Myers in invaluble as an actor who plays both Austin and Dr. Evil. It's a little dirty, but it's definitly worth a look at, despite all your worries.Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me Austin is back baby! Dr. Evil has built a "time machine" and is taking it back to 1969 to steal Austin's mojo. Austin follows him back and meets a hot CIA agent named Felicity Shagwell, and they team up to defeat Dr. Evil. This movie may even be funnier than the first one. It's got one of the funniest scenes that I've ever seen in my life! Dr. Evil has a spaceship that resembles male genitals, and when people are describing it, well, you must see it for yourself to fully appreciate it.

Rating: Summary: Too Funny! Review: Awesome. That's what best describes what I think of these 2 movies. Not only do you get 2 great movies, but there are many behind the scenes features, deleted scenes, alternate endings, and music videos to keep you laughing for weeks. This has to be the funniest DVD package out there to date. If you loved the movies, then your gonna love this collection. Yeah Baby!
Rating: Summary: Hilarious Review: Both of the Austin Powers movies are hillarious. Mike Myers is one of the funniest people alive! And With Doctor Evil, Mini Me, Fat.......... ,Felicity Shagwell and Venessa Kensington it will be even hillarious evry time you watch it!
Rating: Summary: The sequel knocked it down a star Review: I can't believe I'm giving this only 4 stars because the first one is absolutely hilarious and hip. If you don't already know, "Austin Powers: International man of mystery" is about a swingin' secret agent/photographer from the 60's who's enemy is an actually childish villain named Dr. Evil. When Dr. Evil freezes himself so he can be revived sometime in the future, Powers does too so he can be ready for him. They are both unfrozen 30 years later in 1997. Austin is soon teamed up with his old sidekick's daugher, Vanessa Kensington who is not at all pleased when he repeatively askes if they can "shag". Mike Myers, who plays Austin, does is brilliantly; nobody could do it better. And wouldn't you know it? Myers plays Dr. Evil too! Dr. Evil personally is my favorite. Although he is trying to take over the world, he still loves his hairless (there were errors in the unfreezing process)cat, Mr. Bigglesworth. This movie is hilarious. If you watch Austin sometimes when he's talking, he makes these most outrageous faces that are just part of his character. Oh, and who can forget Dr. Evil's rebellion teenage son that was artificially created in a lab while he was frozen, Scott. (played by Seth Green) Dr. Evil tries to bond with his son... he even takes him to a group talk with other sons and fathers, until he has them liquidated. I'm not going to give away the end to the movie, but it must be pretty obvious that both Powers and Evil don't die because there's a sequel. And that reminds me why I only gave them 4 stars altogther. The sequel, although everyone returns except Elizabeth Hurley (who played Vanessa), it just simply isn't as funny. They took alot of the good jokes from the original and just used them again just in different ways. There is also some bathroom humor, if you can call it humor. That's just plain stupid. For instance, Austin thinks he's drinking some coffee, but he's actually drinking somebody's poop that the lab was testing. That's just sick. I mean, where's the clever jokes from before? An 8 year old could think that up. The sequel is good enough to see though, even good enough to buy (I did). No matter how dumb SOME of the jokes are, you can't help but wait to see Dr. Evil or Scott again. I'll probably see the 3rd, which is coming out soon. I just hope it's more like the first.
Rating: Summary: Hilarious! Review: I loved these movies, And I cant wiat for the third one! Very funny, not suitable for chilren.
Rating: Summary: A Collection I'd Love to Own! Review: Okay, I already own both VHS copies of Austin Powers and it's so-so sequel. Smashing baby! Well, if you're not like me, you can love the Austin Powers movies, and now you can own both the videos for one low price! God, don't I sound like a commercial? In "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery", Austin must stop Doctor Evil from taking over the world! Doctor Evil wants to cover the world in liquid hot magma, unless world leaders pay him...1 billions dollars! Will Austin succed?! And he is helped introduced to the '90s by his lovely sidekick Miss Vanessa Kensington who does a great job with the acting. . Several star cameos, though Troyer, as Mini-Me, steals the film. Myers cowrote and coproduced; Demi Moore coproduced. Super 35. Obviously, Austin Powers stopped Doctor Evil, because there is a sequel..."Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me". Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me: More swingin' '60s lunacy as Dr. Evil returns to Earth with a time-travel machine and goes back to 1969 to steal Austin's mojo. More laughs than the original--and more than enough gross-out gags. But can Austin save the world? In this one, he is helped by his sidekick Felicity Shagwell. Now that you know the basic plots, which are kind of similar, I'd have to say I like the first one more. Why, you ask? Even though the cameos are good in both, it's really the side-kicks which made my decision. In "Man of Mystery" Elizabeth Hurley does a terrific job helping Austin by introducing him to the '90s. In "Shagged me" Heather Ghrahm really needs to get some acting lessons. She does not seem convincing. Sorry... But BOTH films are hilarious, and definately ones to check out.
Rating: Summary: Yeah, baby, yeah! Review: Smashing baby! We all love the Austin Powers movies, and now you can own both the videos for one low price! Now you can swing with Austin 24/7! In Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, Austin must stop Doctor Evil from taking over the world! Doctor Evil wants to cover the world in liquid hot magma, unless world leaders pay him...1 billions dollars! Will Austin succed?! Obviously, Austin Powers stopped Doctor Evil, because there is a sequel...Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Shagadellic Austin trys to stop Doctor Evil from putting a "giant laser" on the moon and blowing up the world! Doctor Evil won't, but only if the world pays him...1 trillion dollars! Will Austin save the world?! Hehehe!
