Austin's still got his mojo
16 April 2010
Warning: Spoilers
When films series reach their third instalment, many bolts and nuts start to come lose . However this is not a case with Goldmember which shows us that Austin Powers still has his Mojo. The horny spy is back. He may of lost some of his freshness but there no doubt he still delivers. If anything gold member is possibly the best instalment in the series.

Mike Myers is still great as Austin powers. Just like the last two, he does the usually stuff you come to expect that's including making you horny. Micheal Cane also makes an appearance as Austin's dad which to me, was brilliant. The gags are what you expect from Austin, as one or two gags are reused from previous films but despite this they are still hilarious . Basically, Goldmember is everything you expect. Dr evil, his evil henchman, Mini me, Fat bastard, scotty are all still major characters.

Now when it came to beyonce being Foxy, Mr Powers sexy partner, i was on the fence. Beyonce to me, wasn't the best choice but then again, she just there so that Austin can still crack a rude joke now and then. The arrival of The Dutch was flat. seeing as he plays a big part in the film, he is easily forgettable compared to other characters. Even though the gags still make me laugh, they are easily associated with the gags from the previous two films as there only several of new, unique gags.

Goldmember is another proud entry into the series which still shows that Austin is still groovy and has got plenty going for him. Despite reused gags, he can still make you laugh out loud which makes me come to the conclusion that Austin Powers is now one of movies biggest icons and after watching him for over four hours now on all three films, I don't care if i watch him for another four hours in new material because Austin always delivers and Goldmember proves this

The same goes for Dr evil, i hope i'll still be here when he up to destroying the world for the hundredth time.
