Austin Powers in Goldmember
Not surprisingly, deleted scenes and outtakes are the hands-down  highlights ofGoldmember's abundant Infinifilm features. Mike Myers's  throwaway gags are funnier than Pauly Shore's entire career, revealing how a  relaxed set encourages a flood of inspired improvisation. The Infinifilm feature  is a handy, alternative method of seeing (and hearing) all of the bonus  materials in logical sequence, mostly comprising behind-the-scenes featurettes  devoted to costumes, special effects, all-star cameos, make-up, and various  "social and historical" aspects of the Austin Powers franchise. The Myers/Jay  Roach commentary track is worth a listening for Myers's casual jocularity (and  his decent willingness to give credit to others), but their Hollywood  compliments, while obviously sincere, eventually grow tiresome. More enjoyable  are the pop-up subtitles in the DVD's "Fact Track" feature, adding lighthearted  factoids to enhance an already very funny movie. Taken together, these features  emphasize the productive camaraderie of theAustin Powersteam and the  devoted seriousness that the filmmakers bring to their pursuit of the next big  laugh.--Jeff Shannon
