I remember when I first watched Austin Powers - I had my bet mate over and a girl, and my mate and I laughed and laughed whilst the girl sat silently; this is a boy's film! Austin Powers is a comedy starring Mike Myers as a cool spy brought back from the 1960s into the 90s to take down Dr Evil, the bad guy! The film is a ...  Read the complete review

Yeah Baby The International Man of Mystery has arrived. Austin Powers is alive and well and not living in the 60's anymore, not that he would be aware of that though. The Austin Powers movies are action comedy films which spoof themes and genres like James Bond. Austin Powers is a secret agent and in his day he was the ...  Read the complete review

note: also appears in part on Flixster and The Student Room Austin Powers is a rousing spoof that was successful enough to have two sequels released, although this is the best of the bunch. The film spoofs the spy genre, particularly James Bond, making a mockery of the silliness of those films whilst also taking pot shots at the ...  Read the complete review

Following on from other satirical movies like Hot Shots (and it's sequel), Austin Powers came in and broke new ground with a tried and tested formula. As with most films of this genre, the writers had more fun answering the questions behind the plots like what does happen to the evil henchmen's families if one of them dies?! Mike Myers ...  Read the complete review

I dug Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery out of my DVD collection recently as I haven't watched this movie for years and thought it would be interesting to re-watch the first in the series, to see how it evolved into what it is today. The year is 1967, Austin Powers ( Mike Myers ) is a British secret service ...  Read the complete review

This is the first Austin Power's movie of the 3 hilariously funny movies and my personal favorite. It is hard to beat the first movie of a trilogy.

The fabulously funny story is ...  Read the complete review

Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery was the first film in the series to be released back in 1997. This AP featured Elizabeth Hurley as the Bond girl rip-off playing Austin's sidekick named Vanessa Kensington. There is a very 60's feel about this film because afterall that is the decade Austin is from, but after Dr. Evil (also played by ...  Read the complete review

I must confess to being a bit of an Austin Powers fan and do own all three of the movies on DvD. It is rare these days for a film that receives so much acclaim prior to release to actually live up to the hype surrounding it but I think Austin Powers actually does. Being a spoof of ever popular James Bond - the similarities to characters is uncanny ...  Read the complete review

In the fun and amusing world of comedy there are things that are funny and thing that are about as funny as getting run over by a steam roller(okay so this is funny in the correct context(a cartoon character or bank manager to name but two.) but in this case its not.) The first time (and indeed the second) I watch this film it was in the ...  Read the complete review

You gotta love this groovy spy spoof, which has become so popular that catchphrases such as "Shagadelic" and "Yeah Baby, Yeah!" have become ingrained into everyday American culture. How many films can boast such a claim? Not many. Mike Myers is simply marvellous as both the cryogenically frozen Austin Powers and his arch ...  Read the complete review

The plot follows the usual formula of bad guy threatening ...  Read the complete review

I couldn't stop laughing in this movie, this is a great comedy with an awesome look at how much Mike Myers can really do. He helped write the script, played 2 characters and directed! Even if you hated this film, you hate to agree that Mike Myers did really well putting this together. Myers plays Austin Powers, a shagadelic guy who ...  Read the complete review
