a5c7b9f00b Upon learning that his father has been kidnapped, Austin Powers must travel to 1975 and defeat the aptly named villain Goldmember, who is working with Dr. Evil. He's found his mojo, baby, and now Austin Powers is back again in this shagadelic comedy-adventure! The "sshhh!" hits the fan when Dr. Evil and Mini-Me escape from prison. Joining forces with the superfreaky Goldmember, they kidnap Austin's father, master spy Nigel Powers, in a dastardly time-travel scheme to take over the world. Before you can say "Shake Your Booty," Austin cruises to 1975 and teams up with sexy Foxxy Cleopatra to stop Dr. Evil and Goldmember from their mischievous mayhem. This movie was a blast to sit through. Yeah it did have a mixture of elements and jokes from the first two films, but it still had enough spark to keep you laughing. In fact, I thought this was the best one of the Austin Powers trilogy… if they are going to have another one, I find it to be rather difficult to top this one..esp with the cameo's in it. You can definitely bet I will buy this when it comes out on DVD. I wouldn't completely throw this one away, but I really did feel disappointed when I finished watching Goldmember. This one just really didn't have the same strong spark that the first two had. I loved the first two. The beginning of Goldmember was pretty funny, but everything just seemed to slide downhill from there and stay there. There were a few moments that got a laugh out of me every now and then, but not too much. I've always like Mike Myers. I think he's a very talented comedian, but I just didn't feel that this one worked out. Hopefully, if there is a fourth Austin Powers movie coming, I'll like that one a whole lot more. I always hate to see a good series get killed by the last one in it! :) The movie will leave you smiling forgetfully on the way out, and Myers will have done his job.
