Summary: It May Not Be Your Bag Baby...
Review: 3 1/2 stars actually... Being a fan of the first two Austin Powers films I set out last night to see "Goldmember" Did I have high expectations? Yes. Were they met? Umm...Kind of. There are a lot of scenes in the movie that are very funny, and a few that are downright hilarious. But some of the jokes come off stale and repeated. Some of the funniest moments in the film come from the many cameos that there are. The Good: Dr. Evil is very funny as usual, pulling off some hilarious moments. Mini Me is prob the best part about this film. He's very funny and does some unexpected stuff. The Bad: Goldmember!! I thought that the new "Bad Guy" could have been much better, and I think this is where the film falls short. Goldmember just wasn't that funny. Plain and simple. Also, the "twist" on the story at the end, I thought was just plain dumb. A total cop-out. It's almost like they couldn't think of anything so they started watching Days of Our Lives to get ideas. I won't ruin it for you guys that haven't seen the film, but you should know what I'm talking about when you see it. The In-Between: The supporting cast was as good as usual. Frau, Scott, Number 2 etc. Were likeable and funny as usual. Beyonce was ok, she did a decent job, but I prefer Hurley or Graham. (just my personal preference) As far as the plot goes...it's weak. real weak. I know this isn't supposed to be Citizen Kane, but the movie really just feels like you're watching commercial free SNL. Which is not all together a bad thing for a comedy like this, but just something to keep in mind. Overall, I would say this is a good movie if you're a big Austin fan or just a fan of gross out slapstick comedy. But don't go in expecting it to be the funniest movie you've ever seen or you're sure to be disapointed. Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery 4 1/2 stars
Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me 4 stars
Austin Powers in Goldmember 3 1/2 stars

Summary: I'm being generous....
Review: I went to see this film in theatres today, and while looking at the trailer, there was a sense of doubt with how this movie would turn out. I was hoping that it was just an odd feeling, and that the film wouldn't be this bad itself. It was. I didn't mind the opening credits, with Spielberg and all, but afterwards, it just started downhill and kept on going. The jokes were mediocre at best, the acting wasn't bad, but the plot, ugh, here we go. I know this is supposed to be a spoof of a James Bond film, but regardless whether the movie is spoof or not, a good plot is essential. The biggest problem that lead me to really disliking this film has to be near the end with possibly one of the most cliché plot twists that just made me nautious and hoping that there would be an explosion somewhere or another. The plot twists lead to unnecessary and unexpected personality changes which prevents this film from getting a high rating. If you think I'm just some nit-picking critic, take a look at this: I have seen many, MANY films in my lifetime, and out of those, I can only recall three that I don't like. Three, that's it. And if it's a rare cause that I dislike something, something had gone terribly, terribly wrong.

Summary: Austin Powers Goldmember
Review: The movie will suprise all, and make you want to pea your pants. This movie shows many cameos and some new characters. This movie is better than the "Spy Who Shagged Me" but I still say the first was better, it started it all. The movie doesn't use all the same old jokes as many thought. You won't wait to the end!!!

Summary: high expectations
Review: I just saw Goldmember and it lived up to my expectations.
Lots of the laughs came from jokes we saw in the first 2. For example, misleading shadows. You know the pulling things out my butt type misleading shadows. It did contain some new jokes and mini me got more time on the big screen. I liked the 2nd better, but Goldmember is a good contribution to the series. Austin has a way of growing on you, so I can't wait to see it again. The end is twisted, paving the way for a 4th.

Summary: Austin's Back and as Funny as Ever!!!
Review: When I found out that there would be a new Austin Powers film I jumped for joy. Mike Myers plays Austin Powers, one of the funniest characters that has been created within the last few years. In this movie he is even funnier than he was in the first two films of the series. The plot in this film is much, much better than the last two were, although the last two were very good. Powers' father Nigel has been kidnapped by evil masterminds Doctor Evil and Goldmember, and in this fun film Austin teams up with Foxey Cleopatra (played by the beautiful Beyonce Knowles)to get back Nigel and stop Dr. Evil and his new accomplice Goldmember once and for all. Along the way many things happen, such as a big dance and singing scene with Doctor Evil and Minime. Everything in this film adds up to not only the best movie of the Austin Powers series but also one of the funniest comedies made. While you will be able to understand this movie without seeing the first two films you will enjoy the movie much more if you have seen the first two movies of the series. Mike Myers is one of the greatest talents in the film industry. He wrote the movie and did not only play just the character of Austin Powers, but he also played Doctor Evil, Fat Bastard, and a new character, Goldmember. Due to this feat Myers' roles in this film can be compared to those of Eddy Murphy in the Nutty Professor. There won't be a second passed without you laughing out loud as the comedy and jokes come non stop throughout the whole course of the film. I think that the funniest part of the movie was the song and dance scene with Doctor Evil and Minime towards the middle of the film. I could not stop laughing during this part, and the same goes for the whole film, for that matter. This comedy is in a class of its own. For a fun filled movie experience that will keep you laughing and laughing, this is the movie to see. Happy Viewing!

Summary: Hilarious!
Review: Dont listen to the critics that trash this film. Go see it for yourself and I promise you will laugh. Admittedly, there are some small gaps in the plot and some of the humor is juvenile, but it is well worth seeing if you enjoyed the first two movies.

Summary: Bronzemember
Review: No, "gold" doesn't quite cut it. It doesn't even take the silver - more the bronze. It's the third in the Austin Powers series, and comes in third best. Which is not to say it's bad, mind, just not as good as its predecessors. As usual, there are some very funny sight-gags and little mini-routines. Dr. Evil and Mini-Me get to bust a rap song off of Annie's "It's A Hard Knock Life," in prison - and, speaking of songs, Destiny's Child's Beyonce Knowles favors us with the jazzy (but disco, God help us) title theme. Seth Green's Scott Evil grows to become more like dear old dad, down to losing his hair - he even gives Dr. Evil one of his lifelong dreams, sharks with lasers on their heads - but unfortunately, he has less to do in this entry than in the preceding ones. The neglected and displaced Mini-Me defects to "the good guys," and in token of his new allegiance dresses himself into a Mini-Austin, which is hysterically funny. Dr. Evil's submarine is designed in his image, complete with pinky to the lips - and a radar array that extends from the seat of his pants. Michael Caine couldn't be better cast, as Austin's estranged spy father, Nigel. And poking fun at 1970s aesthetics is as broad a target as that of Ed Wood's movies - no matter where you aim a lampooning barb, you're guaranteed to hit something. Where the movie disappoints is in the lowered level of its humor - which, for this series, is saying a lot. Myers has progressively descended, with each succeeding entry, from more genuine wit to a greater number of mere physical gross-outs. His new character - the title villain of the piece - is definitely as distinctive as any of his many others, but is completely unappealing and actually not very funny. This movie is not as even or smooth-running as its forerunners - the laughs are there, but less consistent and less sustained. It's worth the price of admission, alone, though, for the Austin Powers movie-within-a-movie that frames the beginning and ending of Goldmember, with so many famous cameos your head will spin. One of them - Gwyneth Paltrow - fits so well as Powers' sidekick, you can't help but want to see her do it for real...maybe in the next installment? And don't let Myers kid you: "Austin Powers will be back." And, hopefully, a little funnier and more on-track than he is here.
