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?
