Johnny English Reborn (2011)


Johnny English goes up against international assassins hunting down the Chinese premier.

Lackadaisical James Bond parody which survives by its star's mere presence, but hardly can live up to the humur of his previous comedies.

Maltin**: "Atkinson's Johnny English is clearly the umpteenth James Bond spoof, but fans of the star and his slapstick antics should be glad he's back in this delayed follow-up to 2003's original. Unfortunately, the film is by-the-numbers; many of the gags are predictable and tired, and Atkinson's shtick is getting a little long in the tooth for anyone but his most dedicated followers."
