Critic Reviews
Mike Myers unleashes (or seems to unleash) the entire contents of his comic mind.
Read the full reviewPuerile, pitiful, grotesque, offensive, immature, repulsive and, of course, extremely funny.
Read the full reviewMike Myers is like a rich 12-year-old who rents out F.A.O. Schwartz, upends every toy in under two hours, and brings in strippers. He can get away with this privileged romp because he grooves on what he does in a way that none of his contemporaries -- can comprehend.
Read the full reviewLike a giant balloon painted with Day-Glo colors, however, the whole gaudy mess wouldn't inflate without the force of Mr. Myers's comic genius. It's his baby, baby. And after three editions, it's still flying high.
Read the full reviewThe most consistently funny of the ''Austin Powers'' films.
Read the full reviewMike Myers and Austin Powers may stick to their old Beatle boots, but they've both come a long way, luvvy. For proof, just look at all the A-list celebrities-I-won't-mention happy to crash the party.
Read the full reviewIn all fairness to the film, it is superior to the disappointing second movie in the series. The comedy is about as low-brow as it can get (at least without treading into R-rated territory).
Read the full reviewA picture that, even more than the previous two, feels like a bunch of gags tossed together. The laughs are here, to be sure, although even some of the best of them are retreads and the Swinging '60s recycling act is now feeling a bit past its zeitgeist prime.
Read the full reviewA step or two down from the first and second, but it has some very funny moments, and maybe that is all we hope for.
Read the full reviewThe gifted Myers lets his once and (I hope) future shag king get lost in an elephantine Hollywood franchise. The first time was the charm, baby.
Read the full reviewThe only thing that won't make you laugh, unless you've got a 12-year-old's sense of humor, is the film's tireless parade of gross-out gags and scatological verbal jests. Myers gets a charge out of this material--it wouldn't be here if he didn't--but so much of it is so tedious it's difficult to believe an adult actually sat down and wrote it.
Read the full reviewMyers returns as his menagerie of repulsive characters, but this time, his frantic mugging feels more like an insipid parlor trick than ever.

Best,Baby!
""This third, and hopefully not the final installment of the Austin Powers series is without a doubt the best! I'm pretty sure that Mike Myers is the only actor to ever play four different characters (except for Eddie Murphy in "The Nutty Professor") in one film! You've got to see this one, or you're a "freakin' idiot," baby!""
