An average movie

To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick. Indeed, even though I have actually nothing against Rowan Atkinson and his character Mr. Bean, I actually hate ‘Bean’ which was one of the most agonizing movie experiences I ever had (ok, the fact that I was completely stoned when watching this movie in the theater might have had some influence as well but whatever). Maybe I'm too harsh and I probably should give this movie another shot. Anyway, we're dealing with another movie here so there was the possibility that I might have a good time. Indeed, the concept was actually rather neat (‘what if Mr Bean would become a spy?’) and there was definitely some potential to get something really entertaining. Unfortunately, once again, the end-result was quite disappointing. Indeed, in my opinion, most of the jokes were lame, the action scenes were pathetic and the whole thing was pretty weak. Eventually, this whole thing about Rowan Atkinson portraying a loser spy agent is just too similar to Peter Sellers’ Inspecteur Clouseau but Atkinson never managed to really convince me in this character. Anyway, to conclude, even though it was nothing really awful, it was still pretty damned average and I don’t think it is really worth a look.
