Austin Powers in Goldmember Reviews

After thoroughly enjoying the first two Austin Powers movies, they were daft but enormous fun, I watched this third instalment. I was disappointed admittedly, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The plot takes the whole meaning of daftness to a whole level, so some of it verges on ridiculous, and while Mike Myers is brilliant as Austin and Dr Evil, he overdoes it as the Dutch villain Goldmember and the cameos are very hit and miss. That said, the sets and costumes are still wonderful, the soundtrack is groovy and the script is comedy gold with the cool catchphrases, bad-taste buffoonery and surreal slapstick. In terms of supporting performances Beyonce Knowles is a knockout as sexy and sassy Foxxy Cleopatra and Michael Caine is a dentally-challenged delight as Austin's dad. Seth Green is also fun as Scott Evil. Overall, an inferior sequel, but it was still a lot of fun, with Myers still having his mojo. 7/10 Bethany Cox

I have no idea why I watched it at the first place! in my watching history I didn't feel Poker face until this movie!

Following the success of the two previous installments, it was pretty obvious that they would round this up with a trilogy. Unfortunately, it was easily the least entertaining movie of this franchise. I mean, once again, you get the same tired old jokes and Austin Powers is really getting obnoxious. They tried to be clever by giving Beyoncé the female lead part which wasn't actually a bad idea but she was not really a match to Heather Graham or Elizabeth Hurley. The story, once again, revolves around time travelling but they should have tried something else. There are numerous cameos but they didn't add much to the story, I'm afraid. The only thing that I really enjoyed was Michael Caine, portraying Austin Powers' father. Caine was, as usual, just great and really hilarious but, a part from him, I didn't enjoy this much. To conclude, I think Austin Powers was only interesting for one movie and became a victim of his own success, it was a rather average sequel and it is not really worth a look, expect maybe if you are a huge fan of this character.

AUSTIN POWER EM O HOMEM DO MEMBRO DE OURO - Já fazem 3 anos desde o último confronto entre Austin Powers (Mike Myers) e seu arquiinimigo Dr. Evil (Mike Myers), que fez com que Evil e seu comparsa Mini-Me (Verne Troyer) fossem levados à prisão. Entretanto, a dupla consegue escapar da penitenciária e, juntamente com Goldmember (Mike Myers), elabora mais um arrojado plano de dominação mundial, que envolve uma viagem no tempo e ainda o sequestro de Nigel Powers (Michael Caine), pai de Austin e o mais renomado espião de todos os tempos. Austin também viaja no tempo para deter os planos do trio de vilões, reencontrando em 1975 uma antiga namorada, Foxxy Cleopatra (Beyoncé Knowles), que o ajudará em seus planos.
