People who like this kind of thing will probably find that this is the kind of thing that they like.
For everyone else, this is 1 good film (man of mystery), 1 average film (they spy who shagged me) and 1 poor film (goldmember) all together in a rather nice looking box.
The second 2 films left me a bit cold to be honest, but if you Myers or these films then you cant really do worse than this good value boxset.

This is a really good film. It is a silly dark comedy. Its like a darker but also sillier version of Shallow Grave. If you like your comedy black this is for you. Its not friends or Run Fat Boy Run which would explain all the one and two star reviews. Not Peg or Schwimmer,s usual stuff. This has a much darker tone than Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuss. Although that stuff is violent it has a positive out look on friendship and is also fun. This has very little laugh out load stuff, and is more like grim ironic chortling stuff. Very good but only watch if you like this sort of thing.
This film isn't the best of the three, but this is still a complete classic. It has a good storyline, great humour throughout and great characters; Dr Evil especially. Best character no doubt. The humour is great, such as the names of some characters such as Number Two and Alotta Fagina; then there's hilarious moments, such as when Dr Evil freezes himself along with his cat Mr Bigglesworth, which loses it's fir. Then there's Mr Bigglsworth's face at the end of the film when it's re-frozen.
The film stars Mike Myers as Austin and Dr Evil, Elizabeth Hurley as Vanessa Kensington, Michael York as Basil and introduces Seth Green as Dr Evil's son Scott Evil. It also features a couple of actors I had never heard of, who suit their rolls well; ... Read More:

This is a wonderful film. It has an irresistible plot of two attractive professors (he's got the looks, she's got the witty personality) trying to conduct a platonic marriage having found a genuine liking and affection for one another. Jeff Bridges is perfectly cast as the helplessly sexy, rumpled academic who after being unlucky in love seeks a passionless and thus more 'solid' marriage. Barbara Streisand is lovely as a brilliant, frumpy, hopeless romantic. Between his helpless sexiness and her hopeless romantic-ness you know you are set for an emotional equivalent of a 'rags-to-riches' rollercoaster, all delivered with plenty of laughs as well as insightful (even tearful) moments.
I stumbled on this movie quite "accidentally" on TV, zapping around, and I was transfixed. I had not heard of this movie before and I wonder how, it is breathtaking. Point taken from other reviewers who speak of cliches, poor characters etc, but I actually see this as a strong point. The characters seem quite rigid in some sort of stereotype, and this makes this movie quite orginal I think. Anyway, I had a great time, the action is just non stop, new things happen all the time, it is an amazing rollercoaster ride in space. The special effects are indeed incredible, everybody will have to agree on that.
Anyway: a movie to have a great time, but probably not worth watching more than once.

I remember watching this on tv and liking it so much I recorded it the next time it was on. I actually forgot about it until I started listening to Reiki music, and it somehow brought it back to me; it's now in my Wishlist.
It's basically about a masseuse (Brian Brown) and his relationship with his client (Mimi Rogers). But as the title suggests, this isn't really a sexually explicit film. In fact, sex hardly plays any part at all. Instead, we get an intense exploration of the soul and mind, hence "Full Body Massage". The film has barely 6 characters to its name; its main focus is both Mimi and Brian as they argue and challenge each other's ideas; exploring issues of spirituality, consciousness, happiness. Though it might seem a lame idea in these increasingly ... Read More:

Well-made, well-photographed but ultimately so-so thriller about a detective from the NYPD who lives with wife and son in a rundown part of Queens and is assigned to guard a millionairess who lives in a palatial apartment in midtown Manhattan. Not much in the plot or its working-out will surprise.
