Movie Reviews of Johnny English (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: "Mr. Bond, Mr. Bean."
Summary: 3 Stars
Rowan Atkinson is one of our great comic treasures. With his hangdog looks his sense of visual and verbal slapstick is impeccable. Even in cameos in "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "Love, Actually" he steals the spotlight. "Johnny English" is an OK film with it's fair share of laughs. The ersatz Bond by way of Clouseau plot doesn't add anything new to the spy comedy genre. This is far from a bad film just a tad disappointing. I give "Johnny English" a marginal recommendation but Atkinson is best represented onscreen in the hilarious "Mr. Bean's Holiday".
Summary of Johnny English (Widescreen Edition)
He knows no fear. He knows no danger. He knows... nothing! When the priceless Crown Jewels are stolen, bumbling Johnny English (Rowan Atkinson) is the only Secret Agent in the country (literally!) who can solve the crime. His prime suspects: a sinister businessman (John Malkovich) and a beautiful woman (Natalie Imbruglia) with a mysterious interest in Johnny's top-secret mission. Can the clueless super spy save the day without denting the nation's pride... or his super-cool Aston Martin spy car? Your whole family will howl with laughter as the clumsiest secret agent ever unleashes an onslaught of outlandish stunts, hair-brained heroics and outrageous goof-ups in this hilarious spy spoof!Mr. Bean meets Mr. Bond in Johnny English, a spy spoof that skewers the genre with Rowan Atkinson's trademark brand of veddy-British slapstick. It's a bit half-baked as a wannabe franchise, but Atkinson's creation of a new screen persona is just promising enough to warrant a sequel, despite critics' complaints that Austin Powers had already exhausted the spy-spoof's potential. Poppycock! Atkinson's gift for physical and, in this case, even verbal humor will surely please his devoted fans, even when a rather tepidly comedic screenplay prevents the British funnyman from reaching new heights of absurdity. As bumbling superspy Johnny English, who gains top-level MI-7 clearance after inadvertently causing a colleague's demise, Atkinson breathes life into gags that are too familiar to earn such an amusing revival. With John Malkovich as a smarmy Frenchman determined to overthrow the British monarchy, and Natalie Imbruglia as Johnny's comely comrade-in-arms, this slight but enjoyable comedy gives Atkinson plenty of opportunity to mug it up as only he can. --Jeff Shannon
