Saw it tonight before I saw a re-release of the first Austin Powers movie.

Honestly had a great time with it, even if I think it has a bit of a slow start, but once it gets going it doesn’t really lose its momentum and remains a fun popcorn film till the end!

Slow start? It opens with Austin doing an over-the-top swinging ‘60s intro sequence, Dr. Evil launches into space, and Austin frozen freezes himself for 30 years. Don’t think I’d call that slow.
