Johnny English Reborn [2011]

IMHO, it wasn't that good. A bit cliched at times and that Boffin bloke wasn't in it.

Jaidyn, that's the whole point. It's a spoof film so it's bound to be full of cliches.

Remember Airplane? That had enough cliches to sink a battleship. :)

I know, but that's what makes it bad. Sure, a couple of predictable scenes are fine but it felt like I'd already seen the movie before.

Anyway, no I haven't seen it. I wasn't even born then.

And didn't that genre age well?

There are spoof movies and there are travesties. Most fall into the latter category these days.

This will be the last Johnny English film as the star, Rowan Atkinson (aka Mr Bean and Blackadder) doesn't want the character to grow old.

BBC - Newsbeat - Rowan Atkinson says there will be 'no more' Mr Bean

Like yourself though, I'm looking forward to seeing this film.

Doesn't say that this will be the last Johnny English film, it says that there will be no more Mr Bean. Mr. Bean and Johnny English are not related.

Mr.Bean was outlived years ago. Hence the reason Rowan is trying to branch into new recurrent characters.
