Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

... View MoreI am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
... View MoreI love the 'Mr Bean' TV series and the 'Ultimate Disaster' movie is just as entertaining. My main concern was the transition to the big screen and whether Bean would be as effective as a long movie, but it definitely does work and the transition is seamless.Rowan Atkinson is a comedy genius and never fails to amuse, no matter how many times you've seen or watched Bean for. If there's one thing I preferred about the TV series over the movie, it would be that Bean hardly ever talks and relies a lot more on facial expressions and gestures. I prefer this Bean to the one we see in the movie, but he's still very funny.This is without doubt one of my favourite comedy movies from one of my favourite comedy characters. I can't get enough of Bean.
... View MoreRowan Atkinson allegedly dislikes this movie because it failed to capture the spirit of the "Mr. Bean" TV-series. Frankly, I don't understand that at all, because there's really not much different about the character here. He talks a little bit more, he's a little more dynamic but honestly, how else are you going to make a feature film about this guy? You could say that 2007's "Mr. Bean's Holiday" was a bit truer to the source material, but to me this one is funnier, gives the character more depth and actually makes you root for Bean (in "Holiday" he sorta creeped me out). This movie doesn't simply go from skit to skit, it actually bothers to set up a coherent story and THEN simply goes from skit to skit. The "Bean" movie isn't quite as classic as his brief sketches are, but for true as well as casual fans there's plenty of stuff to enjoy here.
... View MoreBased on the British sitcom of the same name when it was a true success in America when the movie version of Mel Smith's 1997 film based on the show with the same leading man turned out to stupid as can be. I mean the movie was not even funny during any scene and as well as making me not want to laugh with it, it was Smith's directorship that made me want to laugh at the movie. The only performance that was good was by the brief performance by Burt Reynolds that made me give the movie 2 stars instead of 1 star out of 10. The main reason why I think that this movie shouldn't have been made in the first place is because it was the director Mel Smith and the star to the movie that made made the movie just plain terrible especially because of his over the top performance.
... View MoreThe TV series is a classic of a comedy series, so naturally this film had a lot to live up to. It comes close, but overall it isn't a patch on the TV series. Starting with the few I had, the plot is rather generic and somewhat predictable in areas too, and I think while making an effort to stick to the spirit of the series is rather thin for the running time. Also some of the melodrama is rather sappy for my tastes. On the other hand, the film does look great, so is the soundtrack, the physical comedy is laugh-out-loud-funny, Peter MacNicol is good in his conventional role and Rowan Atkinson is brilliant as Mr Bean. All in all, there is much to enjoy but it does fall short of the series. 7/10 Bethany Cox
