If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997... which was 28 years ago this year.

Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.

The Pentaverate is solid. It's no Austin Powers or Wayne's World, but it's solid. It was great to see Mike Meyers back in form, even if it wasn't his best work, just really good.

My hope is that he was just out of practice and he's working on some great stuff behind the scenes. I know The Love Guru was a big miss for him and it really cut him down. He thought he'd created the next Austin Powers and it just fell flat. It wasn't the worst film, but definitely a huge step down.

Long way if saying if you're a Mike Meyers can, the Pentaverate is probably worth your time.
