After Wayne's World Myke Myers has made a comeback with a swinging spy called Austin Powers.
Austin Powers has had himself frozen since 1967 so that if his nemises Dr. Evil returns to Earth he can be called upon to do battle with the mastermind.
It's a fun James Bond spoof with Myke Myers playing both the title role and the bad guy. Although the film is to make Austin the star of the show it's actually Dr. Evil that is funnier with his brilliant phrases such as when he explains who his parents are. The fun doesn't even stop there. Of course there are some faults and the film does wear some of the jokes thin but it doesn't stop Austin and the other weird and wonderful characters from making the whole thing a funny romp. ****
