Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaGeorge Harrison was a big fan of the Austin Powers franchise. The very last letter he wrote was to Mike Myers, praising him for his work. The letter was never mailed but coincidentally ended up in Myers' hands the day the former Beatle died eight months before the release of Goldmember. It was on that day during the scene for the Hollywood movie version ("starring" Tom Cruise, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevin Spacey and Danny DeVito, and "directed" by Steven Spielberg) of Austin Powers' "biopic" was shot. Prior to that moment, Myers had never met Harrison and "cried like a baby" when he received the letter, which is now in a frame in his home.
- GoofsGoldmember curses in German, rather than Netherlands Dutch.
- Quotes
Nigel Powers: There are only two things I can't stand in this world: People who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.
- Crazy creditsThe credit for the company that created the animatronic sharks reads: "Sharks with frickin laser beams"
- Alternate versionsIn Roboto's office, the subtitles read "Please eat some shit" when blocked by a white tea kettle on his desk. Apon moving it, the full subtitle reads "Please eat some shitake mushrooms." In the TV version, it's changed to "Please eat some dung" and when fully uncovered reads "Please eat some Dungeness crab."

Featured review
About as good as the second
While this is still not as funny as the first one, it's still worth watching. It has a load of recycled jokes from both of the earlier films, and a little too many references to the first, in my opinion. It's not entirely bad though, after a slow start it kicks off and gets very funny, very quickly. Most of the old characters return, with a few new ones too. The plot is pretty much the same old deal from the first two, still spoofing old Bond movies. The acting is still pretty good. The characters are more colorful in this one, I think. More developed, perhaps. The sexual crude humor is still there, and is better here than in the second movie, I think. The first is still the best, but if you only see one of the sequels, I recommend you see this one. I thought the twist-in-the-end was pretty lame, but it didn't entirely ruin the movie, as it didn't seem totally out of character or totally unbelievable. I'd recommend this to anyone who liked either or both of the first two movies. The humor is mostly the same, and people who enjoyed the first two will most likely also enjoy this one. 7/10
