The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

The three main female cast members of "The Girl Who Shagged Me" are top-of-the-line for this genre; Anoushka, in particular, is one of the sexiest women I have ever seen. So why do they get LESS screen time than their male co-stars? Do we really want to see a) the mad scientists, the assorted weirdos, the inept cops, the horny Yetis....or do we want to see b) the beautiful women owning the screen and making out with each other? If you answered "a", this is your movie. If you answered "b", you will be disappointed. The erotic scenes are VERY mild, and even the climactic scene between Misty Mundae and Anoushka is over far too quickly. The film spends most of its time trying to be a comedy, but its extremely juvenile sense of humor is VERY hit-and-miss. Could have been so much better. *1/2 out of 4.

The title suggests this is a spoof mainly concerning the second Austin Powers movie, "The Spy Who Shagged Me", but actually it's nothing to do with it except for the British location. The story goes something like this: On an expedition through Scotland, Professor Lavish (Frank Bowdler) discovers a frozen cave woman from the Stone Age (Anoushka), while his assistant meets a gay yeti and decides to go to San Francisco with him. A very mad scientist (Mark Standley, pulling faces like a Batman villain) steals the cave woman, though special agent Johnson (Misty Mundae) tries to sort out the mess. Obviously shot on a shoestring budget, this has many hilarious moments (I loved the sound effects straight from the classic slapstick flicks), monumental silliness, fake beards, topless women... and a sheik on a camel! I think "The Girl Who Shagged Me" is a stunning achievement in bad, bad movie making, so if you watched several art movies before and need an antidote... go for it.

This movie was made by 2 guys, and it shows. These 2 guys are GENIUSES. In the director commentary, they discuss photoshopping the special effects themselves, how they put the costumes together with no budget, and how they built the sets with "found items." This is the work of two brilliant minds who are making the movie from scratch, and thinking through how to do it as they go. It shows in so many unexpected and delightful ways. This movie has flashes of brilliance shown in Peter Jackson's "Bad Taste." I laughed all the way through. My daughter laughed all the way through the movie. My cynical and bitter wife laughed all the way through with tears in her eyes.If you are put off by the first couple of minutes, hang in there. After the guy gets raped by the yeti, the movie is a non-stop laugh fest.

For the budget that this movie was made on, the quality of production is astonishingly good! The actors all appear to be having fun making the movie and the crew also have high spirits (as can be seen in the behind the scenes feature); this contributes to a movie that can kick back and have fun. Sure, the story isn't of Memento caliber but it also isn't so tedious that it's unwatchable. Special props go to the Foley team who's sound effects are top notch! From the very first *BOING* I knew this would be an entertaining and lighthearted movie and I wasn't disappointed! If you're looking for a movie that doesn't take itself too seriously, and you don't mind looking at a few (very nice) topless ladies, and you're in the mood to laugh out loud, you could do worse than watching "The Girl Who Shagged Me".
