Review of Bean (1997) by Nelson M — 01 Jun 2012
Bean wasn't a terrible film, but for a comedy it really didn't do anything to make me laugh. I never saw the TV show but I have heard good things from people and they all say this movie is nothing like the show.
The script was also very weak and didn't really do much to make itself memorable. I chuckled a few times at Rowan Atkinson's antics, but even he didn't do anything to make me fall out of my seat laughing.
I would lie if I said I never enjoyed Mr. Bean, he seemed like a character who is likable and funny, but the movie doesn't give him anything to truly show his potential. The entire cast (with the exception of Atkinson) isn't really all that funny, and the all are just here to be the ploy in Bean's antics and destruction.
Overall, although it had some funny moments, it really didn't do anything hilarious or interesting to make me enjoy it.
