Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)
Top Drawer Shag Film Runs A-Mock
Austin Powers 2 scores a perfect 10 on the Movieometer. It's packed with sight gags and silliness, actually better than the first film.
Best scenes: 1) Dr. Evil's phallic spacecraft is sighted by a series of people in several cleverly-edited clips. 2) Something is wrong with Vanessa - watch her react to the remote control. 3) Dr. Evil is "down with Jerry" on the set of Springer.
Many good scenes document Dr. Evil's family plight and ineptness. He doesn't know that a trillion is more than a billion. He runs into the time machine without turning it on first. Dilbert would be proud.
Die schönen Wilden von Ibiza (1980)
Great review of a giddy low-budget Euro sexploitation flick
Every once in awhile, a giddy, low-budget Euro sexploitation flick makes good. This movie is pretty good anyway.
Having enjoyed this movie on many occasions, I think that part of the fun is the really silly music in the dubbed English version. Shallow disco music with moronic lyrics make some of the slow-paced parts worthwhile.
For example, the opening: as three Euro-biker babes cruise down the beach highway on their scootercycles, the opening song introduces them. It went something like this:
Rollin' on a motorbike Ladies starin' down. Rollin' on a motorbike Ladies starin' down. Ladies in black Ladies in white Get those motorcycles!
Three other really silly songs and a few wacky characters move this flick a few inches away from the bare-breast and butt peepshow class.
