Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (PG-13, 1999)

Austin Powers (Mike Meyers) loses his wife (Elizabeth Hurley from the first movie, who turns out to be a killer robot), and meets up with CIA agent Felicity Shagwell (Heather Graham). Dr. Evil (also Mike Myers) is still plotting world domination, with the assistance of Number Two (played by Robert Wagner in the scenes set in the present and Rob Lowe in the scenes set in the past). Dr. Evil goes back in time to 1969 to steal Powers' "mojo" with the help of a huge Scot called Fat Bastard (also Mike Meyers) and Powers goes back to 1969 to retrieve it.

AUSTIN POWERS: THE SPY WHO SHAGGED ME is very funny at times and always genial enough to inspire generosity toward the jokes that don't work. Spy boss Basil Exposition (Michael York) wisely advises both Powers and the audience not to think too much about the plot.

This is silly fun for its core audience of college kids. They will find the jokes about the 1980s wildly funny, though they may miss some of the jokes about the 1960s. Parents should be very cautious about allowing children or young teens to see the movie, and should be prepared to talk with kids who see or hear about it, to answer questions, explain family standards on the use of the language in the movie, and to provide reassurance.
