...be defined, a term that Austin Powers (Mike Myers) uses to wow the ladies in James Bond fashion throughout the triology. This is not your usual James Bond though, and for those of you who have been living under a rock for 10 years and have never heard of the franchise - it's the Bond spoof, only overtime Austin Powers has became a stand alone film that does not rely on tags such as spoof. Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery was the first ...

Advantages: Topicality and that it doesn't date.
Disadvantages: Distasteful to some.

For thoughtful, intelligent people with a dry sense of humour...you can't go wrong. Now I missed out on this first time around when it was on TV but, on a whim, I bought it on sale in a local DVD store remembering that I'd liked Chris Morrises The Day Today. Yes, it is excrutiating in parts but it's so worth it! A parody of all those sensational news reports that, sadly, are becoming the norm. A report from a parochial town called Cow sick pronounce ...
...pool security guard and a naked Armando Ianucci having sex doggy style on camera for journalistic purposeses.

Certainly, I became a fan of Alan’s from the ‘Jonathan Creek’ series and further enjoyed his contributions to QI, however outside of this I’d seen very little of his work. Whilst I’ve always found him funny, I always (quite wrongly) assumed he was a comedic actor, rather ...
...For anyone totally unfamiliar with Alan Davies, I would say that his style of comedy is reminiscent of the likes of Eddie Izzard in particular, but I can see fans of Lee Evans or Bill Bailey finding his delivery and style entertaining. If you have enjoyed Alan on ‘QI’, then I think this DVD will really appeal to you. If you Alan cover’s a range of topics, from the Olympics, Christenings, his pet cats, British Airways Pilots, as well as various other ... Read review
