Yes, the script has all the unrepentant swipe of an Austin Powers movie (unsurprisingly, given it was co-scribbled by Mike Myers’ writing partner Michael McCullers) but it also pokes fun at stereotypes instead of reinforcing them, riffing on US pop culture and blaxploitation films. And any movie that features Denise Richards as a vapid mantrap merits kudos for sheer candid audacity.
