“Mole. Bloody mole. We aren 't supposed to talk about the bloody mole, but there 's a bloody mole winking me in the face. I want to c-u-u-t it off, ch-o-o-p it off, and make guacamole” as said by Austin Powers himself (“Quotes”). Many of the Austin Powers’ lines in the movies are very funny or inappropriate. The Austin Powers’ movies are known for their crude humor, specifically Austin Powers in Goldmember. The actors did such a fantastic job staying in character and making the relationship between one another realistic and lively. These character relationships also helped shape the never ending comedy in the movie. The plot of the movie was also well-written thanks to Mike Myers and his fellow writers. There were a few bloopers, but they were not that noticeable at all. Austin Powers in Goldmember deserves credit for being humorous and fulfilling people’s expectations compared to the other Austin Powers’ movies which were not as humourous. …show more content…

In every Disney movie the villain is generally portrayed as evil or crazy, and it is taken as a personality type, but Disney movies also tend to sneak in a backstory for the villain geared towards explaining how they had come to be evil. And in the end, the villain is usually convinced that they should be “good” (again). So from this perspective, it may appear more so that the villain is not a personality type but a product of the situations they were in each moment that lead to he or she becoming the villain. Malcolm Gladwell is an award winning author who constructed a theory labeled The Power of Context, a chapter in his book The Tipping Point, to prove that people, such as villains in Disney movies, are products of their situations. In essence, to be a product of situations is to be a product of context.

The reader may not agree with each resolution, but is certainly forced to think about issues he or she may never have thought about before (Smith 63).
Shane Black has casually become a genre unto himself. Before trying his hand at directing - which is also a genre unto itself, he dreamt-up (meaning he wrote them) some of the most beloved movies of all-time, such as Letha Weapon, The Long Kiss Goodnight, and Last Action Hero. Okay, maybe the “most beloved movies of all-time” designation is a stretch, but that doesn’t change the fact that Black certainly has a distinct style - and as such, a legion of followers.
The movie did have some parts that I thought were better
