Synopsis:
From the wild mind that created Wayne's World comes the sexiest secret agent since Mata Hari. He's hip, he's mad and he's got a gun, baby...Mike Myers stars in New Line Cinema's comedy Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. By day he's a fabulously talented high-fasion photographer in swinging `60s London - by night and at other times, he's an incredible suave undercover agent for British Intelligence. He has moves no man can match and no woman can resist. Whether he's sent into the oil fields of the Middle East, the frozen tundra of Russia, or the dark underworld of Berlin, Austin Powers never turns down a mission. But are the 90's ready for the likes of Austin Powers? An 8-track tape in a CD world, Austin doesn't seem to notice that the free love of the `60s is long gone. Wearing a crushed velvet suit, bell-bottoms and horn-rimmed glasses, he is a walking anachrinism ready to "shag" every groovy chick he meets - even if they do think he's a freek. However sidetracked he may be, he literally swings into action with Agent Vanessa Kensington (Elizabeth Hurley), a straight-shooting operative and daughter of his former sidekick, who is sometimes vexed but always charmed by Austin's out-of-date sexuality, mannerisms, and politics.
