It's Austin Powers meets Indian Musical
I'm being generous because its Mike Meyers and I love his characterizations - normally. Love Guru just seems like a retread of Austin Powers. The main character is self absorbed, somewhat jealous of another character in the film, thinks constantly of sex, has all sorts of trade mark sayings, and makes fun of every bodily function. Take your pick - Austin Powers or Guru Pitka? Underneath the set designs and costumes, its really just the same film, same gags, and same characters. Justin Timberlake added a little something to the cast with his portrayal of a French Canadian Hockey Star, Jessica Alba was there for eye candy, and the funniest bit of the film was the Indian Musical slant in the closing credits. Why didn't they incorporate those sooner? All said and done, if you like Mike Meyers you'll probably be somewhat forgiving of the lack of new material. Mike's humor was once cutting edge but, like a joke you've heard a dozen times, eventually you tire of it. Mariska Hargitay everyone.
