A decade ago, the first cinema venture for Rowan Atkinsons cherishably eccentric comic creation was rather scuppered... read more on Time Out
This shows that Rowan Atkinson is no has bean... back with his bags packed and the promise of a holiday in the Sun, in typical Mr Bean fashion nothing goes as it should, and ends in some very funny situations.
It might be a bit worn and juvenile for some, but all in all, Rowans brand of humour appeals to old and young alike, and has the ability to tickle the parts some comedy talent can't reach. Watch it with anyone from 4 to 104 and everyone will have a laugh at some point in this. Definately worth a rent.
Ok, most people have seen or at least no the style of the Rowan Atkinsons classic character, Mr Bean, so you should have a fair idea what to expect, however this film is far from being just more of the same overplayed comedy, its genuinely funny and really quiet different in places. We are not big Bean fans but are glad we went for this, the style maybe familiar but the story was not and kept us interest throughout. After winning a holiday in a raffle Mr Bean sets off to France for a madcap adventure, accused of kidnapping Mr Bean blunders his way to the film festival in Cannes meeting a variety of characters and causing all kinds of chaos on the way. Some of the comedy is just plain silly and some bits not even funny but we both remained interested throughout and certainly smiled on a number of occasions, overall thats all I ask for from these types of films. Give this a chance, it is easy, cheesy and well worth a watch. 7/10. 4 Stars
Comedy sequel Mr Bean's Holiday has reached the top of the UK box office chart in its first week of release, totalling over £6.4 million in ticket sales, according to ACNielsen. But while the rubber-faced funnyman, played by Rowan Atkinson, may enjoy the top spot, he may have to contend with two releases scheduled for this weekend which could see Easter holidaymakers flocking to cinemas. Sunshine and Blades of Glory are due to hit the big screen tomorrow; the first is a science fiction... Read more
