Amazon.co.uk Review
It’s taken a long time for Rowan Atkinson to bring us Mr Bean’s Holiday, the sequel to the substantial hit of 1997. But in that time, he’s lost none of what made the character so huge in the first place, delivering an effective comedy that’s again managed to ignite box offices right across the world.
The set-up for Mr Bean’s Holiday is in the title: the hapless title character wins a holiday to France, meaning this time it’s the French Riviera that’s the backdrop for the slapstick humour that has defined the series. And so Mr Bean finds himself in a series of increasingly unlikely situations, causing all manner of havoc in the process.
While unlikely to convert anyone who isn’t already a fan, Mr Bean’s Holiday is nonetheless a comedy that delivers reliable laughs very much in the spirit of what has gone before. Atkinson continues to inhabit the character with great skill, and it’s--rightly--his work here that brings the lion’s share of the laughs.
By most accounts, Mr Bean’s Holiday is the swansong for a character that’s manage to delight audiences worldwide for over a quarter of a century. And while the film is, truthfully, no classic, at its peak it’s a hoot, and offers gentle, enjoyable family entertainment. --Jon Foster

A charming and funny film for all the family including those that are deaf or hard of hearing and for that reason I have given it 4 stars. It won't win any oscars, but it is funny. There are times when you don't want a complicated story line to follow with ridiculous stunts or utter stupidity in place of good humour. This is a gentle, delightful comedy with universal appeal. If you want something more weighty this is probably not for you.

On a miserable afternoon, having heard some good reports of this film, my husband suggested that we should perhaps take my older sister (neither she nor we were particular Rowan Atkinson fans) to see Mr. Bean's Holiday. We were pleasantly surprised that it was so amusing, and we laughed so much. We came out of the cinema feeling our spirits had been 'lifted' by it. From the reactions in the cinema, I am sure that many, many others were of the same opinion.

This was a film which I was prepared to hate. I am not a great fan of the Mr.Bean film genre. I enjoyed the tv series but I never considered that his oddball humour would translate to the big screen. I was wrong, this particular film works on many levels. A film for the kids without a doubt. Considering the subject matter it is surprisingly well constructed and would appeal to adult audiences. There are moments when the humour is bordering on the genius. Well worth watching. This is a film that I shall watch again. Rowen Atkinson has no real acting to worry about, he is simply called upon to be the preposterous little man, Mr. Bean. There are moments which the great Jacques Tati would relish. Buy it, if only for the kids.

Mr Bean's Holiday
Really disappointed. The trailer shown on another DVD had the only funny bits.
Unless you are a total Mr Bean fan dont bother with this.
