May 7, 2022It's a bit all over the place in style and humour, and it's like Mike Myers threw a bunch of ideas at the wall to see what would stick, but that's not uncharacteristic. Suffice to say if you're really missing some Austin Powers style humour it's worth a watch.

Jun 5, 2022Silly with a few surprisingly funny gags and a couple poignant bits. Feels like they could have cut some stuff and make it a tighter and better 4 episode series but then, Myers never seems to want to always use every bit possible.

The Pentaverate could have been good, but that would have required restraint and revision, neither of which are on display in a show that is simultaneously overindulgent and toothless.
-
Sometimes the comedy of The Pentaverate lives up to those ambitious visuals, often with structural or meta jokes, like the silly Irons intros, or a running gag that is, hands down, the finest comedy work of Maria Menounos’ career. ... The Pentaverate is more wistful than scatalogical when it comes to its satire, though.
-
A tiresome compendium of half-formed characters, weak social commentary and so many groan-worthy penis and poop jokes that it’s difficult to believe the headliner was once Hollywood’s top funnyman. ... You’ve got a slog that, no matter its brief runtime, wildly overstays its welcome.
