Johnny English Reborn [Blu-ray]

A superb actor!Johnny is not Mr Bean. A totally different character with a few flaws Mr Bean has.Love it!!!

One "GAG" after another all the way through this movie. Love this one!

Honestly, I'm shocked. My son and I laughed quite a bit at the first movie, and still bring it up now and then (usually by simply saying "flebby"...). I expected something a little more dumb and silly, something I'd "tolerate", but I still couldn't resist it. I'm so glad that I picked it up!First the movie is a little different mostly around Johnny English himself. He's been in Tibet training with Monks to become more in control of himself - but it's still Johnny English so he's pretty easily distracted and silly. My favorite scene in the entire movie is a chase scene that I relate to the old "Pepe Le Pew" cartoons, the guy is jumping around, over fences, between buildings - but Johnny is using his training to remain wise and follow him through more conventional means (instead of scaling down the building the way the guy that he's following is doing, he simply takes the elevator). I laughed out loud at every turn, much to my surprise.There's another long chase scene where Johnny is in a special wheelchair that can go 60MPH. If you watch the extras, you'll see that this thing was for real and not all of the high speed parts were done with a stunt double!Last - watch the credits! There is an AWESOME scene that they cut from the movie to add to the credits, and they did a great job with it. He's cooking and cutting items to the sound of music, and Rowan Atkinson's perfect comedic timing shines through in this scene - it's a must watch!Honestly, if you enjoy this type of humor or especially if you saw the first one and liked it, do yourself a favor and get this movie. Now that I own it I know I'll be re-watching it now and then when I need a good, silly laugh.-D

Fascinating. I was not a Rowan Atkinson fan until watching Johnny English, and now I want to find out as much about the fellow as I can look up. I had seen the heart-warming Mr. Bean movies and knew they were patterned after another set of mime-character films starring a French actor known for his comedic genius, made some years ago. The Bean movies reminded me of Pee Wee Herman's Adventure, and I put Atkinson in the same category as the star of those films, and held my opinions to myself, neutral.But after watching this very accomplished actor play the part of a smooth secret agent with a flair for doing funny stuff, I can recommend that any people out there who are Bond addicts, LISTEN UP, because you will thoroughly enjoy Johnny English, and Johnny English Reborn.The beautiful women, fast cars, clever plots, admirable villains, elegant backdrops of exclusive European destinations are all here in sufficient abundance to satisfy, and the smooth Johnny English delivers a better product than most of the actors playing serious secret agent roles.It's the most good clean fun that you'll get from a theater experience than any movie on the market, bar none, and will keep you glued to your seat from the explosive starts to the hilarious endings. Mind you, don't make the mistake of thinking this film is a low level B-movie production. It is the slickest produced spy movie that I have seen in years, and I am an official James Bond geek..

I did not expect this movie to be as funny as it is. This movie is not meant to be taken seriously. Reminds me of the Pink Panther (with Steve Martin) as the bumbling agent who catches the bad guy. Fun movie.

The movie is way underrated and I recommend it to anyone

Love the premise of a mr bean bungler as a James bond

I may have created a monster by introducing Mister Bean to my kids several years ago. They wanted to see the first Johnny English movie, and they loved it. I, however, found it to be too juvenile and silly and didn't really like it at all. Then this sequel came out, and I had no desire to see it. The kids watched it on Netflix, adored it, and asked for the blu-ray for Christmas. They really wanted me and their dad to watch it with them, and while we didn't really want to, we did. We laughed our heads off. This sequel is much, much better than the original Johnny English movie. It's still a juvenile and silly style of comedy, but it really is hilarious. It's quite family friendly, so it can be watched with the kids with no worries. If you have a taste for silly comedy or just want to laugh very hard, give Johnny English Reborn a try.

Its realy funny i like it alote i give it five stars

Funny Johnny English Reborn dvd

Der Film ist nicht schlecht, aber der erste Film des "Johnny English" ist deutlich origineller. Nicht selten muss bei Nachfolgefilmen festgestellt werden, dass der Teebeutel für einen zweiten oder dritten Aufguss herhalten musste - so scheinbar auch hier.Kauft den ersten Film! Wer den bereits gesehen hat, verwässert den Spaß durch diesen Film nur!

For the first half hour or so Johnny English Reborn is a surprisingly funny spy spoof that's a huge improvement on the dire first big screen outing for Rowan Atkinson's hopeless yet supremely self-confident spy who was originally dreamt up for a series of credit card adverts and seemed ill-suited for anything longer than 30 seconds. Where that misfired more than it hit, the sequel begins rather well as the now disgraced spy is called out of his retreat in a Tibetan monastery (where he's learning, among other things, the martial art of dragging boulders with his testicles) by a reluctant MI7 to uncover an assassination plot aimed at the Chinese premier.Some of the jokes are out of date - his sparring with Gillian Anderson's unimpressed spymaster, all impeccable but monotonous pronunciation, is like a flat rewrite of Judi Dench's scenes in GoldenEye that's 16 years too late - but there's plenty that does raise a smile or the odd laugh, not least a particularly well-executed parkour chase scene across the rooftops and along the dockside of Hong Kong where the joke is that, despite obvious audience expectations, English's ineptitude constantly fails to materialise as he never puts a foot wrong and repeatedly outthinks a killer with a minimum of effort. But once the action leaves Hong Kong it obviously forgets to pack the jokes for the return trip and becomes a tired but watchable run-through of stale routines that weren't that funny when they were being done back in the 60s when people first started making mediocre Bond spoofs - the clumsy would-be knowing banter with a villain over a game of golf, the gadget filled chase scene (here in a motorised wheelchair), the assassination attempts by a ridiculous villain (here an elderly Chinese cleaning lady) survived through dumb luck rather than skill... you've seen it all before, and better done, and compared to the likes of OSS 117 - Cairo Nest Of Spies [2007] [DVD] it seems stuck in the last century in the wrong way.There are some compensations, with the biggest surprise how much better Rosamund Pike is here than in her genuine Bond film, Die Another Day, giving a much more natural and appealing performance in a role that's not much more than reaction shots and exposition before turning into the romantic interest just because that's part of the formula. It's a shame that she doesn't get more to do, but that could apply to most of the cast in a comedy that seems to have been made by a director who doesn't really want to do a comedy in a classic case of trying to turn the film he's been hired to make into the different kind of film he'd rather be making instead.That problem is increasingly apparent from the deleted scenes on the Blu-ray and director Oliver Parker's rationale for cutting most of the funnier moments purely to keep the story moving while bizarrely leaving the now redundant and occasionally laborious moments setting them up in the final cut: in this kind of film the story is really nothing more than a near irrelevant coat rack to hang the jokes on, and it's the jokes that should take priority. As he rationalises his decisions as "small sacrifices worth making" to get to the next mundane plot point you can't help thinking he's the kind of director who'd cut the farting cowboys out of Blazing Saddles because it wasn't really moving the story forward. Not that there's much originality on display in them, but some - an extended walk-through the newly privatised MI7, English so preoccupied with trying out the gadgets in his car that he doesn't notice machine-gun firing killers are chasing him or a throwaway gag with some exploding chewing gum - are much better than what did make the final cut even if they did need a bit of tightening. The same could be said of the deleted scenes presentation as well since the disc doesn't offer the option to skip Parker's near-identical explanations for cutting the jokes out of a comedy.Aside from a decent 25-minute making of and a not particularly funny gag reel the rest of the extras are the usual puff pieces on how Atkinson is the comic Messiah, though his perfectionism is absent from what makes it to the screen in the last two thirds of the movie. Like so many movies shot digitally rather than on film the 2.35:1 widescreen picture quality tends to vary from sharpness (usually in studio scenes and the Hong Kong section) to a rather soft, pallid, undetailed and lifeless look (most of the exteriors) but is acceptable. The triple play edition also includes a widescreen DVD with no extras.

GEHEIM!" Johnny English......? " - " Ja,- vor Fünf Jahren war er unser Top- Agent..." . - Stimmt ja,...er hat damals in Mosambik den Ball aus den Augen verloren...".OKTOBER 2006/ Äusserst heikel!"

Was denken Sie, wer Sie sind!? "Zwischen den Jahren 1992 und `97 trat Komiker und Schauspieler Rowan Atkinson in den populärenWerbespots eines britischen Kreditkarten- Unternehmens auf, in denen er einen vom Pech verfolgtenSpion darstellte. Während dieser Zeit kam ihm der Gedanke, die Idee, diese Figur zum Helden einesrichtigen Films zu machen. Und.......JOHNNY ENGLISH wurde im Jahr 2003 zum großen und internationalenKinoerfolg, der weltweit über Einhundertsechzig Millionen Dollar einspielte." Alles läuft perfekt. "" Großer Gott!
