Consumer DVD Review

Anyone who doesnt seem to have seen this movie yet is missing out on an awful lot.I noticed this in a rental store & thought This looks a lot like Austin Powers.So being a big fan of Austin Powers,I didnt hold my curiousity for too long & checked this out for a look.And I loved it.This did look a lot like a take off of the final Austin Powers movie,and the jokes were easily noticable & very funny every time.I cant wait to pick this up somewhere in a retail store & I highly recommend it to anyone who is a spy or swinger fan.
