There were a couple of dumb jokes throughout the movie but in general Mike Meyers has never dissapointed me. I get his humor on every movie of his which I could again and again. Sir Ben Kinglsey, the mentor guru, was unbelievably funny. I am laughing as I type thinking about his role. Vern Troyer was funny too. But the masterpiece was Justing Timberlake. He was hilarious!!!! JT is a very talented and funny guy.
If you're into Austin Powers type of humor, go see The Love Guru.

Message: I love Mike Myers, he's from Scarborough just like I am, but there is no way I'm going to see this. I loved Wayne's World but wasn't that big a fan of his other movies, and this one sounds like it's in their category. The dumbest part is that the Leafs are challenging for the Stanley Cup! As if!
Glad you liked it though :)

ugh!! i went and saw it when it first opened. the ONLY saving grace was justin timberlake. i did laugh, maybe 2x's. it was totally all done via mike meyers' wants and needs and his own imagination.... maple leaf hockey, the gorgeous girl, a midget...
don't get me wrong i LOVE mike myers. i thought it was more tailored to 12 yr old boys. the whole elephant thing just put me over the edge. not the funny one either. very, VERY predictable. i left with a very bad taste in my mouth. glad i didn't pay. i pretty much had each punchline down before it was said.
sorry!! and i love silly dumb stuff. my boys dragged me to talladega nights and i was reluctant to enjoy it but i had tears streaming from laughing so hard. i really hoped this was going to be like that but it wasn't.

You may have liked it but it's considered a box office bomb. It's only cleared $25 million in almost 2 weeks, and it probably might not make it to $40 miL.

Message: I might go see this one. It looks funny. However, the funniest part is the LA Kings and Toronto Maple Leafs playing for the Stanley Cup!! LOL In a few years LA might have a shot, but not the Laughs.
