AUSTIN POWERS IN GOLDMEMBER 2002 (NEWLINE)

Third and final Powers film.

Mike Myers returns for the third and final time as both Dr. Evil and Austin Powers. This time Powers must go back to 1975 and find his kidnapped father. Back in the 70's he finds agent Foxy Cleopatra played by Beyonce Knowles.

It seems Dr. Evil is working with Goldmember to wipe out the polar ice caps and flood the earth. The jokes are funny but you can tell the series has run it's course, and there just doesn't seem to be the chemistry between Beyonce and Myers as there was with Heather Graham and Liz Hurley.

I will give the Devil her due and say Beyonce looks very nice in her 70's outfits and handles her acting chores well, but I just wish her character and Powers had more between them. Michael Caine is Powers father and the rest of the cast includes Seth Green, Michael York, Robert Wagner and Mindy Sterling. I will recommend this film as I got a few laughs out of it, and it's not that bad.
