Review of Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) by Drlowdon — 10 Jun 2017
Having had his plans thwarted by Austin Powers in the original movie Dr Evil travels back in time to 1969 and steals Austins mojo, apparently the source of all his power. With Austin incapacitated he again devises a plot to hold the entire planet to ransom. As a result Austin must also travel back in time to recover his mojo and, alongside hot sidekick Felicity Shagwell, again put a stop to Dr Evils plans.
It is always difficult to make a comedy sequel but, despite obviously now lacking some of the originality, The Spy Who is just as good as the first movie. The star of the show is again Dr Evil who alongside, tiny sidekick Mini-Me provides the majority of the funniest moments, with the appearance on Jerry Springer being a particular highlight. Spoofing all manner of movies as well as providing some clever in jokes The Spy Who is another hilarious ride.
