Directed by: Jay Roach

Starring: Mike Myers, Heather Graham, Michael York

one-star

This movie is really the sinner of the Austin Powers series. It regurgitated every joke from the first movie, whether they worked or not, and added in just enough extra characters to justify Mike Myers playing a third character (okay, actually it still wasn’t justified. It’s a horrible disease SNL people get I call Murphitis). And, of course, there was “Mini-Me,” which launched the career of Verne Troyer (and oh, the heights he has soared to) and made everyone who saw this movie an unfunny hack for years.

The plot of this movie is exactly the same as the first, only reversed. You can really take every single idea from the first movie, change the order it appears in, and get… actually, you’d get something better than this movie. This movie fucking sucked. Oh, and Heather Graham took over the Elizabeth Hurley role, which obviously didn’t cut it.
