DVD : Austin Powers Shagadelic Box [1997]

Rating: - the law of diminishing returns
People who like this kind of thing will probably find that this is the kind of thing that they like.

For everyone else, this is 1 good film (man of mystery), 1 average film (they spy who shagged me) and 1 poor film (goldmember) all together in a rather nice looking box.

The second 2 films left me a bit cold to be honest, but if you Myers or these films then you cant really do worse than this good value boxset.

Mike Myers is a comic genius with this trilogy of films that catapults sexy starlets - Liz Hurley (grrrr), Heather Graham (grrrrr) and Beyonce (grrrrr) - against Austin's evil nemesis, aptly named Dr Evil and played by Myers together with a cast of henchmen including Frau Farbissina, Scott evil, Mini-me (a one-eighth clone of Dr Evil), Fat Bastard (also Myers) and the wonderful 'No.2', played by Rob Lowe and robert Wagner (young/older).

The plots are fantastical but no worse than a lot of bond films, the costumes superb, the music authentic(especially the specially put together band Ming Tea which feature Myers on lead and The Bangles' Suzannah Hoffs) and Austin's teeth a great ad for braces.

Michael York is wonderfully camp as Basil Exposition, whose character runs across all three films.

If you don't know this cast of characters you should get to know them. Each film is very funny. I nearly forgot Goldmember, whose wedding tackle was involved in an unfortunate smelting accident and is now solid gold.

If the opening sequence of each film DOESN'T make you laugh then you are probably dead and therefore can't read this.

Just behave and watch this DVD!!!

Mike Myers excells in this trilogy of Bond spoofs. With classic girls from Ivonna Humpalott to Felicity Shagwell! You can see that his style of humour from 'Wayne's World' is really developed in these films and they keep you laughing time and time again.

Mike Myers' other works of genious include:
Wayne's World 1
Wayne's World 2
The Cat in the Hat
Shrek 1
Shrek 2
Shrek 3

This is a real treat for any Mike Myers fan. Buy this box-set and you won't be dissapointed!

Rating: - Utterly Hilarious
This is quite possibly the most hilarious thing I have ever seen. Mike Myers is brilliant as Austin Powers, Dr Evil, Golmember and Fat B*stard.
Seriously, all three films are superb and each time you watch them they become funnier and funnier. This will keep you entertained for hours upon hours. Although there are a few dirty refernces, the humour and jokes are not complicated to understand and the simplicity of the film is brilliant.
The added extras on the 2nd and 3rd fims are also brilliant, especially the deleted seens. This is a must buy item and will keep you laughing time and time again.
