Review of Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) by Brandon W — 12 Mar 2015
I LOVED this movie growing up. My cousins and I would watch it at their Cabin up at Shuswap lake almost every year. Unfortunately, watching this now as an adult and as a film student, I was so disappointed to find out that this film does not hold up at all.
Some jokes still work, some really don't. When the filmmakers give a little bit of time between each joke for the audience to laugh but all you hear is complete silence, it's really awkward. Heather Graham, let's talk about her.
Like most bond girls she's parodying, she is drop dead beautiful. Her acting on the other hand can be cringeworthy. All in all, mentioning some of the jokes with your friends at a bar will garner more laughs then actually watching the movie.
