Austin Powers   ...   movie reviews
sun 2005-mar-06 00:05:44 pst   ...   permalink


Watched Austin Powers last night -- I hadn't ever seen it. And I must say, it wasn't really as funny as I was expecting. I mean, it has its moments, and it parodies the spy genre quite well. It even includes a number of exactly my sorts of silly jokes, but really, overall I felt that it wasn't all it's been cracked up to be. Maybe I just went into it with too-high expectations.

I think most of my favorite parts of the movie involved Dr. Evil -- he was rather funnier than Austin Powers. I guess it's often the case that bad guys are more interesting characters than good guys.
