Rating: Summary: A worthy sequel that JUST manages to keep it together! Review: The third Austin Powers movie, Goldmember, is a fair entry into the series. The opening credits are great. The film drags a bit, though, until it finds direction and places itself firmly onto the comedy track.Worth a look. Rent for a few real belly laughs. Buy if you're a devoted fan to this irreverant special agent series.
Rating: Summary: 3.4 out of 5 Review: After seemingly forever, Powers fans finally have the third in the Austin Powers series - and it's sure to live up to their expectations. Mike Myers once again returns as Austin Powers, who this time must confront an array of enemies which includes Dr. Evil (Myers), Fat Bastard (Myers), and his newest foe - Goldmember (Myers). By his side is sexy Foxxy Cleopatra (Beyonce Knowles) - of course, all of the original gang is back as well. There's more spoofs and an outrageous opening sequence featuring plenty of big-name cameos; it leaves behind most of it's sex humor, however, to go for potty humor - but there's just as much laughs and entertainment as any other Austin Powers film. Groovy, baby, yeah!
Rating: Summary: This is NOT a funny movie. Review: What is so funny about this movie?Nothing really,except one part in the whole movie.ONE part.And they call this a comedy?Bleh.The movie doesen't even have a decent plot and is kinda boring,and some scenes just seem thrown in there for no reason(like the one with Britney Spears...What was that all about?!).So this is a horrible comedy and it has one of the worst storylines in any movie ever made.I mean the storyline is just so bad its hard to believe how some people actually like this movie.And it didn't even end correctly.The DVD features aren't that great either.Don't think about buying this DVD - rent it if you have to.I don't even reccomend renting it.Just skip this movie.
Rating: Summary: Faja Faja Faja Faja Review: The funniest movie ever! My family is still quoting it after seeing it about six months ago! Austin Powers meets the Freaky Deaky Dutchman Goldmember who uh.......... loves gold! Even Dr. Evil can't stand him even though he captured Austin Power's faja (father) for him. Will Goldmember stop with the Dutch accent? Will Austin Powers get his faja (FATHER you Dutch person!) back? Find out in this wonderful movie!
Rating: Summary: Funny movie, terrible DVD Review: I think if the other reviews of Goldmember prove anything, it is that Goldmember is a love it or hate it movie. Personally I loved it in the theater. My gripe is with the DVD, not the movie itself. The first two movie DVD releases were great. They had the movie with commentary tracks and then a special features menu. For some reason, they decided to make the third one different and use the "Infinifilm" gimmick. Personally, I don't care for it. But again, this can be a matter of opinion, as other people seem to really like the way it works, by making many of the special features available during the movie itself. However, there is one unforgivable problem with this DVD - you cannot PAUSE or FORWARD/REVERSE during play of the movie. By itself, this fact makes this DVD unacceptable. If you want to watch Goldmember on DVD, make sure you have 90+ minutes free with no interruptions, because you CANNOT PAUSE THE MOVIE. I cannot figure out what they were thinking. I am hoping there will be another release of this movie. If so, I will buy it and give away the Infinifilm DVD. In short, good movie, terrible DVD.
Rating: Summary: Mild Review: I loved the first two, but this one is just not very funny. I'm sorry, but Goldmember disgusted me, and his antics were not at all amusing. You never hear anyone on the street saying "Haha look at me I eat my own skin and have balls made of gold!" Plus his accent was non-descript. It's not like fat bastard where people actually liked him. Beyonce is a horrible actress. I rather like her music, but she simply has no talent when it comes to acting like something she's not (a 70's swingin roller girl or whatever she was supposed to be). most of the jokes were reused from the first two movies, and simply not as funny or shocking as they were before. i'd love to see an austin powers 4, but mr meyers please find some new jokes, and vixens that [aren't bad] at acting.
Rating: Summary: Not great, not bad Review: Austin Powers in Goldmember was no where near as great as the second one. But it still has its moments. It starts out with the funniest beginning I've ever seen, a movie being shot within a movie, starring Austin Powers! This is of course the introduction with the credits. Austin Powers(Mike Myers)is now on the trail of Goldmember (Mike Myers) who is helping Dr. Evil (Mike Myers) crash a meteor into Earth so it would flood the world. He teams up with Foxxy Cleopatra (Beyonce Knowles) in order to stop Dr. Evil. The whole cast returns, including Scott Evil (Seth Green), Number 2 (Robert Wagner), Frau (Mindy Sterling) and of course Mini Me (Verne Troyer). This movie is the funniest movie of last year, but not nearly as funny as The Spy Who Shagged Me.
Rating: Summary: UHH, NO MORE AUSTIN POWERS...BABY! Review: I was really excited to see that there was going to be a third Austin Powers movie, since I love the first two movies. But when Goldmember came out, I was pretty disappointed. All of the jokes showed up in the last two movies and have been tired out. In this movie, Austin Power's father is captured by an evil Dutch man named Goldmember. He loved gold so much that when he lost his genitalia in a boating accident, he replaced his "bits and pieces" with solid gold. He planned to bring down the comet Midus 22, which was solid gold, onto the North Pole, and flood the Earth. Austin had to travel back in time a time machine at Gold Member's disco in order to save his father and thwart Dr. Evil's and Goldmember's schemems. Not only did this happen, but Scott Evil, Dr. Evil's son, started losing his hair and eventually turned evil at the end of the movie. There is also a surprising ending involving Austin Powers, Dr. Evil and Nigel Power's (Austin's dad) that you do not want to miss. I have heard that there will be another Austin Powers movie in which Scott Evil will be the evil character, but this series of movies has been stretched out to the point of exhaustion. As I said before, most of the jokes have appeared in all three movies, and the plot is almost always the same. Also, it's sometimes like, "Oh please, how can those characters be so utterly immature and pathetic?" The characters in Goldmember and the other two Austin Powers movies can just be preposterous sometimes. PLEASE, DO NOT MAKE ANY MORE AUSTIN POWERS MOVIES!!
Rating: Summary: yeah! baby yeah! Review: Austin Powers in goldmember is another laugh out loud comedy featuring,michael myers,beyonce knowles,michale kain, and verne troyer. every part of the movie was either hilarious,exiting or interesting. My favorite part was when DR. Evil was in jail and started a riot by getting minnie me and all the other prisoners rapping the song "its a hard knock life" by Jay z. there are many other funny parts too. also when DR.Evil was in jail if u look closely at the security guard u can see that it is Katie Curic from the today show. heres one of the scenes: FASHA! Goldmember: {in douch} i present to u Austin powers fasha! DR. Evil:his what? Goldmember:his fasha! DR. Evil: his farger {looking toward hi assistent Number 2} Goldmember: y'know his fasha DR.Evil:what! Goldmember: his fasha! his dad DR. Evil: oh his FATHER. FA-THER, FA-THER, FA-THER YA CRAZY DUTCH *******! If u liked the second one u will definitely like the 3rd.
Rating: Summary: Better than the first two Review: Although nothing Mike Meyers has done recently has come even close to as great as So I Married an Axe Murderer, at least this is better than the first two Austin Powers movies. The first 10 minutes of this movie are side-splittingly funny and worth watching repeatedly, after that I can't say much. Beyonce Knowles is definitely the best sidekick so far. She is beautiful, funny, and knows how to sing and she never does more with Austin then give him a tiny kiss. This movie is slightly less vulgar than the others, but still a crass movie. I give it 2.5 stars.
