Johnny English Reviews |
"Johnny English" is a surprisingly gentle, old-fashioned comedy from the man behind such thorny, spiteful clowns as those who featured in the popular 1997 hit movie, "Bean," and the cult TV series "Blackadder." [read review]  --Megan Lehmann (New York Post)
Much better than anyone had any right to expect, with Atkinson on top comic form and gags that come thick and fast – not bad for a film based on a character from a credit card commercial… [read review]  --Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
...this is a likeable parody that, while never quite as side-splitting as it thinks it is, still contains a good number of well-worked comic set-pieces. [read review]  --Neil Smith (BBC Films)
Loose-limbed ostrich Rowan Atkinson has his moments in this undercooked British spy farce, but it's mad king John Malkovich who steals the show. [read review] --Stephanie Zacharek (Salon)
If "Austin Powers" is the funniest of the Bondian parodies, "Johnny English" is the least necessary, a mild-mannered ramble down familiar paths. [read review]  --Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times)
The tagline for Johnny English is "He knows no fear. He knows know danger. He knows nothing." That pretty much sums the experience of seeing it. [read review]  --Brian Gallagher (MovieWeb)
Johnny English is a tamer Austin Powers crossed with "Get Smart," with very little in the way of effective humor. [read review]  --James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
...there weren't enough good laughs for me to recommend it to anyone other than the most devoted Beanheads. [read review]  --Jack Mathews (New York Daily News)
Unoriginal, non-sensical and not particularly funny. [read review] 4/10 --Gary Panton (Movie Gazette)
This is how the Mr. Beane movie should have been. [read review]  --Carl Lazarevic (MovieWeb)
