If you don't think Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997) is one of the funniest movies of the 1990s, maybe you should be packed into a cryogenic time chamber and sent back to the decade whence you came. Perhaps it was the 1960s, the shagadelic decade when London hipster Austin Powers scored with gorgeous chicks as a fashion photographer by day, crime-fighting international man of mystery by night. Yeah, baby, yeah! But when Austin's arch nemesis, Dr. Evil, puts himself into a deep-freeze and travels via time machine to the late 1990s, Powers must follow him and foil Evil's nefarious scheme of global domination. Mike Myers plays dual roles as Powers and Dr. Evil, with Elizabeth Hurley as his present-day, karate-kicking paramour. A hilarious spoof of '60s spy movies, this colorful comedy actually gets funnier with successive viewings, making it a perfect home video for gloomy days and randy nights. Oh, behave!

"I put the grrr in swinger, baby!" a deliciously randy Powers coos near the beginning of The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999), and if the imagination of Austin creator Mike Myers seems to have sagged a bit, his energy surely hasn't. This friendly, go-for-broke sequel finds our man Austin heading back to the '60s to keep perennial nemesis Dr. Evil (Myers again) from blowing up the world--and, more importantly, to get back his mojo, that man-juice that turns Austin into irresistible catnip for women, especially American spygirl Felicity Shagwell (a pretty but vacant Heather Graham). The plot may be irreverent and illogical, the jokes may be bad, and the scenes may run too long, but it's all delivered sunnily and with tongue firmly in cheek. Myers teams Dr. Evil with a diminutive clone, Mini-Me (Verne J. Troyer), then pulls a hat trick by playing a third character, the obese and disgusting Scottish assassin Fat Bastard.

The sequel knocked it down a star
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.New Line Platinum Series Box Set (Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery/The Spy Who Shagged Me)
