austin powers is a perfect movie for idiots! it is hilarous for any age!

This movie -- assuming Austin Powers 2 is Austin Powers: Goldmember -- was brilliant. Others may have claimed that the movie has been too obscene or vulgar, but I disagree, seeing as how we're living in 'this' day and age, where 'that' is contemporary comedy, if even the movie's directed toward a specific audience; sorry if what I just said makes no sense -- I'm not up to the review right now. Anyway, one thing that strikes me as odd, in the movie Mini-me switches sides, from evil to good. Dr. Evil, I do suppose, could have cloned another "Mini-me," but the writers chose another route, which was: instead of Dr. Evil continuing to hate Scott, he fostered his real son, and chose to forget his mini-me. What shape would the path of the story have taken if another mini-me was cloned? Anyway, enough ramble-and-rant, fathom and ponder. I think it was a brilliant movie. A five out of five.

I enjoy all the Austin Powers movies but all of them take vulgarity to new heights. I think Mike Meyers is a brilliant guy and could be even funnier if he could tone down the filth just a few notches. Fat Bastard was disgusting (and funny) and I found it hard to believe it was Mike Meyers under all that makeup. One star knocked off for being overly gross.

The first Austin Powers was amusing but slight--an extended Saturday Night Live sketch. The success of that movie paved the way for this--perhaps the unfunniest movie of the 1990s. I wanted to squash Mini Me the first moment I saw him. Endless mugging and overacting.

i love austin powers. i would have given it 5 stars except that scene with felicity and fat bastard made me ill.
Lost48 04/15/2005
Even better than the first.
sfalconer 11/01/2004
I really enjoyed the first one but as much as I like Austin Powers I hated 2. It was not really very funny with a lot of bathroom humor, more so than the first. One spy spoof was enough Mike look for some thing new. I have not seen 3 yet but it looked about the same stuff re-hashed. Update: I have seen 3 and I was right.
snlgirl 08/29/2004
This second movie was even better than the first! Mike Myers is just as funny as Austin Powers, and Heather Graham is groovy as his 60's love interest!
Redoedo 08/24/2004
Most of the jokes here are simply taken in some form or another from the first film. Very few truly funny moments here. Substandard at best.
bbutler76 07/26/2004
Saw this movie with great anticipation and was really really disappointed. Only laughed out loud once during the entire movie. The rest of the movie theater was dead quiet and several people left before it was over. Mini me sucks and was a bad idea. Fat bastard was the only remotely funny part of the movie. does not hold a candle to the original.
Iamopinionated 06/05/2004
This movie is great the first time you see it. It's not nearly as good after that but I won't ever forget how much the whole theater was laughing when I saw it for the first time.
Mr Evangel 05/04/2004
Somebody put this movie out of it's misery. Just a thought.
pennyroyalty 04/04/2004
usually sequels aren't as funny or as good as the original. Austin Powers 2 is an exception. The inclusion of characters such as Fat Bastard are hilarious and even though some of the sight gags are a little stale, the movie is quite funny.
irishgit 12/24/2003
Dreadful. Even worse than the first one.
VirileVagabond 12/12/2003
Released in 1999 and directed by Jay Roach, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me is a sequel in its purest sense, namely it essentially recycles the same gags and jokes from the first movie. This time our hero Austin Powers (Mike Myers) travels back in time to the 1960's to retrieve his mojo (the aura that makes him irresistible to women and effective as a spy) which has been stolen by his nemesis Dr. Evil (Mike Myers). Powers is aided by American agent Felicity Shagwell (Heather Graham) while Dr. Evil has Number Two (Robert Wagner/Rob Lowe), a cloned, pint-sized version of himself, Mini-Me (Verne Troyer), and Fat Bastard (Mike Myers). While the first Austin Powers film at least was somewhat imaginative, this sequel suffers from repetition of the humor from the first instalment. Moreover, the comedy is more gross and bathroom oriented, especially the Fat Bastard scenes. While this may appeal to many and can work in smaller doses, too much can ruin a script as it does with Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me.

This one was funnier than the original. Fat Bastard was hilarious. Mike Myers does a great job at performing as multiple characters.

IT WAS KIND OF CORNY,AND NASTY.
heidikay 08/05/2003
Better than the original, which is rare. This movie knocked my socks off when I saw it in theaters. It is one of my favorites.

Mini-Me is the sh*t biiaaatttccchhh
philc 03/18/2003
I really tried to like it but it's not funny. Worse than the first one.
ClassicTVFan47 03/16/2003
I really, really, really hate it when bad movies get a sequel and good ones don't. Austin Powers is a fool and so are the writers of this lowbrow, moronic comedy. I don't understand the appeal of this movie. The jokes are gross and what I call under-the-top, which means the situation is not played up for comedy in a clean way and resorts to the garbage can instead. Don't watch it.
BIGBABY 02/07/2003
This one was just as bad as the horrible first one.
gOoSe 06/27/2002
this WAS better than the first one... Why? Better characters. Yeah some of the old jokes but new ones! Great for high school and college guys! girl too!
tworebel 06/27/2002
I really liked this movie. Mike Myers did an awesome job! This movie was sheer brilliance.
antondatree 05/11/2002
Just as funny as the original, this totally cracked me up. Dr. Evil is absolutely hilarious, Fat Bastard - - what a name! And Austin Powers himself. Man is this funny. Mike Myers will prove to be the new great comedian. I eagerly await the third installment - - Goldmember. I hope Mike Myers doesn't ruin it, but I doubt it. Just don't do any, or much, fart jokes. See this. Summary: JUST AS FUNNY AS THE ORIGINAL, HILARIOUS.
LoneUSFullHous eFan 04/05/2002
I trully can't believe this film was so popular. Even from the previews I could tell the jokes were purely sickening and just not funny. You would think they would learn their lesson after the first one.
AndyInAmerica 03/10/2002
if i could i would get all the austin powers 2 vhs and dvd videos over at my house, take them out back and take a fat dump on all of them.
CrazyStraws21 02/09/2002
Just as good as the FIRST 1
benfergy 02/02/2002
Very funny. One of few sequels that's just about as good as the original.
Doive123 11/10/2001
Wanted to really like it but after having seen it once I couldn't say that I did. There was no pace to the movie and the scenes did not seem connected i.e. a poor, loose plot. It relied on its funnier predecessor to generate the majority of the jokes and therefore the film lacked real impact. My one caveat is that I have seen the first film a number of times and you do notice more of the gags so maybe it could be the same with this film but I wouldn't go mad for this in general.
joeAwaz 11/03/2001
Barrows too many of the things tat made the first movie funny. Nothing new.
Chaotician23 10/09/2001
Oh.....this one was way funnier than the first one.
jeffrey715 08/16/2001
This is such a funny movie!!!! Mike Myers is great!
CastleBee 07/09/2001
Yep, even though I did not care for the first one, I bought what many people were saying (It's even BETTER than the first one!) and rented this one too. For me better wasn't going to really take much so I figured they had a shot at it. Also, on some level, I wanted to give it another chance because I thought I really MUST have been missing something. Well, there may have been a few more laughs but they still didn't convince me this film deserved the praise and enormous success it immediately reaped. That missing something just never managed to completely reveal itself to me.
HurleyGurley 06/28/2001
I thought this movie was very funny, it was a lot better than the first Austin Powers, Mike Myers is so funny! This is a GREAT movie
Talena 04/12/2001
This movie was so funny! I can't stop laughing every time I see it! Mini-Mi is so cute! You gotta love Dr. Evil and Scott Evil is drop-dead gorgeous. One of my favorite movies of all time.
callmetootie 04/04/2001
Austin Powers 2: The Spy Who Shagged Me is only for die-hard fans of the original. Without the charming taste of Elizabeth Hurley, the character of Austin Powers is unfunny and extremly annoying. Instead of Hurley, we get Heather Graham who is a beauty, but can't act for the birds. Mike Myers gives his usual performence as the spy, Austin Powers who has to once again save the world from Dr. Evil.
Benzenhoeffer 04/04/2001
don't bother - #1 was bad enough.

BEST MOVIE!!!! VERY SHAGADELIC!!! DAKTARI!!!!!

Liked the first one better.
Dorkavitch Chamalsky 02/05/2001
This is probably one of the greatest comedies ever! You have to watch it more than once to catch everything, but once you get it all, it is absolutely a riot! I honestly laugh at every other scene in this movie. Mike Myers does a fantastic job playing Austin, Dr. Evil, and Fat Bastard. Mini-Me was a hilarious addition! And Scott Evil and Frau and Number 2 are just as funny. And Heather Graham is pretty easy on the eyes too. I guess this movie is so cool because there are so many quotable quotes in it...two thumbs way up!
Hayley 01/28/2001
This is a great movie. I think it was a bit better than the first Austin Powers movie too. There is the introduction of Fat Bastard and Mini Me who are both pretty funny and we still have Austin Powers and Dr Evil continuing to make us laugh. Definitely worth watching.
