Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery (1997)

In 1967, Dr. Evil (Mike Myers), who is intent on world domination, escapes from the clutches of British spy Austin Powers (Mike Myers) by freezing himself and being sent into outer space. Powers volunteers to be frozen so that he can be thawed out when Dr. Evil returns to Earth. 30 years later, both men are thawed out and must adjust to life in the 1990s. Written by Myers and directed by Jay Roach (TRUMBO), this is a hilarious but affectionate satire of the Bond films and the 1960s in general including THE AVENGERS, LAUGH IN, the Matt Helm series, swinging London and 60s pop music. The comedy is broad and silly but Myers' Austin Powers is such a clueless, lecherous goofball that you can't help but laugh at his antics. The two sequels that followed couldn't quite compensate for their lack of inventiveness. The movie spawned countless catchphrases like "Do I Make You Horny?", "Oh, Behave!", "Shaggalicious".  I watched the American cut which is 5 minutes shorter than the international cut and eliminates Lois Chiles, Rob Lowe and Christian Slater from the film. With Elizabeth Hurley, Robert Wagner, Michael York, Mimi Rogers, Will Ferrell, Carrie Fisher, Seth Green and Mindy Sterling.
