Rowan Atkinson's James Bond spoof returns for a second top secret mission. Also stars Gillian Anderson (The X-Files) and Rik Mayall (The New Statesman).
"In the years since MI7's top spy vanished off the grid, he has been honing his unique skills in a remote region of Asia. But when his agency superiors learn of an attempt against the Chinese premier's life, they must hunt down the highly unorthodox agent. Now that the world needs him once again, Johnny English is back in action. With one shot at redemption, he must employ the latest in hi-tech gadgets to unravel a web of conspiracy that runs throughout the KGB, CIA and even MI7." (Official Synopsis)
I got it out to rent and it just blew me away Atkinson was just awesome and funny!!!!!!!!!!!
AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!u need to watch it
When my younger brother told me that he wanted me to rent this movie I was so against it but he persisted and I ended up getting it. I watched it with my dad and brother and this movie had us laughing practically the whole way through. Rowan Atkinson is an amazing actor who, somehow, can stay serious which makes it even funnier!
This movie is hilarious! Atkinson makes you laugh at even the simple things, and the further you delve into it the better it gets. Fantastic family film that's sure to please everyone! It worked on a 19 year brother who is very picky, so should definitely work for you!
I just watched this today at Event Cinemas Albany and completely loved it. I think it was better than the first. I laughed so much. My American friend, who doesn't get some British comedy, couldn't understand why I thought is was so funny. This is Rowan Atkinson at his best. Watching 'it all come right in the end' when it so shouldn't of, is brilliant. Every scene has been made to have a funny moment. Go to see this film - you won't be disappointed.
I haven't laughed so hard since Bridesmaids.
Low on ambition, Johnny English Reborn still delivers some strong laughs with Atkinson bouncing well off good actors like Rosamund Pike, Gillian Anderson and Dominic West. Still given its thinness, it might be best for all the spy to now go permanently MIA.
One day we'll see a film that really harnesses Atkinson's mighty talent. This isn't it.
Director Oliver Parker’s pacing is off and the screenplay fails to provide a lively enough framework for this gifted and intelligent actor’s unique physical comedy.
A 'slightly' more grown up take on the bumbling spy premise that will keep the little audiences entertained and the older guardians subdued.
We've been told the NZ release date for this flick is Thursday, 6th Oct 2011.
Release date: October 6th 2011.
