  The actor who plays "the mole" is Fred Savage. He was the boy in the Princess Bride whose grandfather reads the story to. The beautiful black woman you think is familiar is the singer Beyonce! Love the opening scenes with all of the guest stars! Mike Myers plays, Austin Powers, Dr. Evil, Goldmember and Fat Bastard! (Except for the end where John Travolta appears as Goldmember).

  Goldmember is arguably the best one. It’s a perfect way to end it 🤣

  I'm suddenly thinking of the 1993 movie, So I Married an Axe Murderer, which stars at least one actor from this movie.

  Tris was great to see in the theater, especially the cameos at the beginning. The audience was roaring louder with each one !

  You should watch Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with <i>Michael Caine</i> and <i>Steve Martin.</i>

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DDKISfueDM&amp;t=679">11:19</a> They&apos;re using Cockney rhyming slang, a traditional form of English wordplay originating in the 19th-century East End of London, where everyday words are replaced by a rhyming phrase and the rhyming part is often dropped.

  It&apos;s a parody of all sorts of sixties spy films; Matt Helm, Derek Flint, James Bond, and even Lancelot Link - but mainly James Bond. That scene with Foxy Cleopatra speaking to Austin thru Nathan Lane was inspired directly from AFTER THE FOX (1966) in a restaurant scene where Okra the Turk speaks to The Fox thru Okra&apos;s lovely assistant - hilarious on its own and worth the cost of admission!

  Foxy Cleopatra is a play on Foxy Brown (played by Pam Grier whom you know from Jackie Brown) and Cleopatra Jones (played by Tamara Dobson), both fierce icons of blacksploitation cinema. I highly recommend Foxy Brown, as well as Coffy and Friday Foster (all with Pam Grier).

  The funniest comedy trilogy ever made.
