Mr. Bean's Holiday

Release Date: August 24, 2007
Studio: Universal Pictures
Director: Steve Bendelack
Screenwriter: Robin Driscoll, Hamish McColl
Genre: Comedy
MPAA Rating: G
Website: Mr. Bean's Holiday

Starring: Rowan Atkinson, Emma de Caunes, Jean Rochefort, Antoine de Caunes, Willem Dafoe

Plot Summary: Rowan Atkinson returns to the iconic role that made him an international star in "Mr. Bean's Holiday." In his latest misadventure, Mr. Bean--the nearly wordless misfit who seems to be followed by a trail of pratfalls and hijinks--goes on holiday to the French Riviera and becomes ensnared in a European adventure of cinematic proportions.

Tired of the dreary, wet London weather, Bean packs up his suitcase and camcorder to head to Cannes for some sun on the beach. Ah...vacation. But his trip doesn't go as smoothly as he had hoped when the bumbling Bean falls face first into a series of mishaps and fortunate coincidences, far-fetched enough to make his own avant-garde film.

Wrongly thought to be both kidnapper and acclaimed filmmaker, he has some serious explaining to do after wreaking havoc across the French countryside and arriving at his vacation spot with a Romanian filmmaker's precocious son and an aspiring actress in tow. Will Bean be arrested by the gendarmes or end up winning the Palme d'Or? It's all caught on camera as Atkinson again applies his awkward athleticism to a comedy of errors in "Mr. Bean's Holiday."

I think Bean can be very funny. For about 30 minutes tops.

MESA! :thud:
Donald LOVES Bean.

:grabs:
Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but Peter MacNicol's reaction to Bean's "fixed" painting dang near makes me wet my pants every time I see it.

I had ZERO interest in seeing Bean, but when I finally did I was very amused.

I'll probably see this on dvd & probably be disappointed. Some things are a one-time deal, and sequels are just not funny. I'm hoping that isn't the case with this, but I have a feeling it is.
