Bean works a lot better in a shorter – non-movie – format. I feel sorry for the people who’s only exposure to Mr. Bean was this movie. The shorter, previous mini-films were just hilarious. The Mr. Bean movie just didn’t do it for me. It seemed kind of americanized, and that doesn’t really work well with Brit-humor. I hope Rowan Atkinson invents another character soon and just retires Bean. When does the Black Adder movie come out?
