Critics Consensus

While the narrative structure is messy and doesn't make much sense, the third installment of the Austin Powers franchise contains enough inspired bits to entertain.

The third installment in the series of super-spy spoofs, it's handcuffed by the ever-increasing load of baggage it carries.

Rated: 2.5/4

I think this is the funniest of the three movies and I liked the first two.

Film Critic: Adrian Martin

Almost every gag is a shambling riff on a patently ludicrous plot move or a punchline that does not quite work.

Rated: 2/5

...Myers has turned his franchise into the movie version of an adolescent dirty-joke book done up in post-Tarantino pop-culture riffs...

Even the outtakes during the end credits are utterly humorless.

Austin Powers in Goldmember is the weakest in the series, but with a great cast, and plenty of hilarious moments, this movie is still a great time.

This is easily the weakest film of the trilogy. There is a reason why the titular villain is not on the cover, because he is forgettable and boring. Honestly, the entire movie is forgettable. The twists are dumb, everything is played out already and the stronger members of the cast are underutilized. Beyoncé is the weakest of the "Powers" girls. The one funny trope in this movie was Scott's balding. Best Character: Scotty Best Quote: "Well, I can't believe Sir Steven Spielberg, the grooviest film maker in the history of cinema, is making a movie about my life. Very Shagadelic, baby, yeah." - Austin Best Scene: The Scott Balding Moments Note: I was not expecting the Carrie Ann Inaba scene. Pretty tasteless, even for 2002.

Haven’t seen this movie since I was a teenager and I can say I enjoy it more now as a middle aged adult. We need more Austin Power these days.
