The Love Guru (2008) 6/10

Starring : Mike Myers, Jessica Alba, Justin Timberlake, Romany Malco, Meagan Good, Verne Troyer, Ben Kingsley
Director : Marco Schnabel
Running Time : 87 mins

Guru Pitka (Myers) dreams of being the number one Guru in the world, instead of being number two, so when a high profile job comes his way to fix the love life of professional hockey player Darren Roanoke (Malco), Pitka immediately starts to work his charms on both Roanoke and his teams manager Jane Bullard (Alba).

For anyone who is a major fan of Austin Powers, this movie was pretty good, otherwise you probably wouldn’t enjoy it. The jokes are all at the same level as the Austin Powers movies, unfortunately it shows a lack of progression in Mike Myers comedy. There are some okay jokes, but a lot of the jokes were so bad you had to laugh at just how bad they were.
