Rowan
Atkinson was back on the big screen in 2011 with a sequel to the
bungling spy flick Johnny English and as much as I love him, Johnny English: Reborn is below average at best.
Sure,
the first movie was okay, but it wasn’t anything that really blew you
away. The whole bungling spy thing has been done several times, take The Naked Gun for example. Johnny English never really added anything to the genre, it just existed within it.
The
whole premise is essentially: what if James Bond was an idiot? And the
filmmakers pretty much ran with that for the first movie. For the second
they do very much the same thing.
