    A comic actor of genius who raises silliness to an art form, the wonderfully expressive Atkinson makes excellent use of those devastating looks in the spy spoof Johnny English, where he turns up as a James Bond type more likely to kill adversaries by accident than on purpose.

    Rowan Atkinson's spy spoof is wildly uneven and yet, at times, nothing less than wildly entertaining.

    Plays like a tired exercise, a spy spoof with no burning desire to be that, or anything else.

    The way the movie is crafted, is by MR. Bean letting things happen, the dumb way though. Witch makes it funny and gives the movie its own perspective.… Expand
