I hadn't seen the prequels and this was a limited selection on the airplane but it perfectly filled a couple of hours on a dreary flight. This is mild entertainment but with some down right hilarious moments and sequences. The virtual reality scene is comedy brilliance. It somewhat reminded me of the older generation comedy movies. It will definitely provide a laugh. Ridiculous throughout which is exactly what it aims to be. Rowan Atkinson is still a brilliant comedian and some Mr Bean style facial will give you that nostalgic flair.

Johnny English proves to be funny as always in the third movie of the trilogy. I wasn't certain if I'll enjoy the movie but surprisingly it was enjoyable. Rowan Atkinson is amazing as the iconic Mr. Bean and so as Johnny English. Atkinson may have disappeared for a while now but he does get the job done and hasn't lost his talent. There is nothing much to say about the rest of the cast nor the plot of the movie other than its funny, entertaining and amusing. Something about this parody over James Bond is special in which it makes the whole character feel great.

While the 007 movie getting deep and dark minded, the Johnny English movie still be funny. And it is funny enough to not outdated by using the old school tools to cause jokes.

Perhaps not his best work but there are quite a few genuine laugh out loud moments. The Brits are pioneers of self-deprecating humour, and Mr Bean is the mascot. Rowan Atkinson is a living legend. One time watch but it is worth it!

There were some very funny parts where I couldn't stop laughing out loud! Got even tears out of my eyes. The story itself is very cliché and has a lot of mistakes in it. And some parts are very predictable. But for me it did not spoil the fun!

I've always enjoyed the Johnny English movies, so I was absolutely delighted with the third entry in the series: Johnny English Strikes Again. With the brilliantly idotic hilarity of The Pink Panther, and the fun factor of all the old Bond movies, I was laughing and smiling right the way through here, and even though there's barely anything in terms of a story to follow, it proves a thoroughly entertaining watch from beginning to end.
I was really surprised by just how much I laughed in this movie, because while I've had good fun with the previous two films, I can't say that I've ever found one quite so funny as this, but that really is a positive for a film that's unashamedly silly and light-hearted throughout.
Taking all of the most generic tropes of spy movies, including all the clichés of old Bond and new Mission: Impossible movies, this film tells you that it's not trying to create any sort of dramatic or exciting story right from the outset, and while that may prove a negative for lesser movies, it really doesn't here.
There are so many jokes throughout the film, and although not every single one sticks the landing, the sheer quantity of gags coupled with the presence of a handful of properly funny ones makes the film a hugely entertaining watch, as Rowan Atkinson ups the funny factor another level with a delightfully silly performance.
Much like the old Pink Panther movies, Johnny English Strikes Again is pretty much a series of comedic setups strung loosely together by a very basic spy plot. If you're looking for deep espionage thrills, then this definitely isn't the film to watch, but there's so much humour to enjoy throughout that the quality of the story really isn't as important, as I found myself too busy laughing to really bother about anything else.
And what's more is that, like Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther movies, Rowan Atkinson's fantastically silly performance works perfectly once again, as we see him get into all sorts of ridiculous situations that, while entirely predictable and idiotic, are really brought to life by his onscreen brilliance, to the point that you never really get tired of watching him do the same thing over and over again.
I can tell that this film won't be for everyone, but I had a whole lot of fun with its unrelentingly silly and light-hearted atmosphere throughout. The first two acts in particular stand out with their rapid-fire jokes per minute ratio, and while the final act gets a little too interested in the story for its own good - taking away from the pure idiocy of the comedy - I was laughing a huge amount from beginning to end.

Johnny English Strikes Again delivers us a new chapter of collisions and botched up situations. As a fan of slapstick, the first two films in the series have always had a special place in my heart - those along with Jump Streets, Anchormans and Horrible Bosses, Bringing Up Baby, etc. are always ready to go when I want to watch something light and stupid (big fan of stupidity). Johnny English Strikes Again will be added to that list, as for my money, it's at least almost as good as the previous instalments. They're obviously nothing earth shattering but they're good for what they are.
Atkinson's as good as ever, Bough (played by Ben Miller) is back from the first film and there are also fun cameos from Michael Gambon and Charles Dance so we have a little bit of Dumbledore and Tywin Lannister in the mix as well. Add some Atkinson dance moves, really bad fake names, and messing up with an ancient harness and you're all set. It's also fun that The Pink Panther films are referenced in the title as Mr. English can obviously be seen as the heir of Inspector Clouseau from the old film series.
Rating: 6/10

This entire movie feels like it was made ten years ago - from the title to the poster to the bland script and its weirdly naive way of portraying the internet and the whole digital aspect of the story.
While Rowan Atkinson is undoubtedly the king of physical comedy, his performance here felt quite uninspired and out-of-date. This seems like the ultimate irony, since the story evolves around a clash of modernity and old school espionage. However, I don't think the main problem lies in Atkinson's performance but in the poorly developed script with its lazy writing.
Now, the JOHNNY ENGLISH franchise obviously isn't known for its high standards in film making and just wants to make people laugh. But that's the main issue here: It just isn't funny. The script lacks any sort of coherence and even comedic timing. Everything feels like we've all seen it before in a much better way.
I ended up being quite bored while watching this new and hopefully last entry of the franchise. It seems like a mere cash grab based on a script written in 2008 and dusted just to make a fast buck at the expense of quality entertainment.

Johnny English Strikes Again was a welcome return of Rowan Atkinson to the big screen. The film had numerous laugh out loud moments as the enduring yet foolish English stumble around everyday life in his quest to solve a high tech mystery as a spy. The idea of making English a high school teacher was also a welcome surprise and really a fun way to get to see English's more enduring side.
A definitely must watch if you are looking for a fun night out with the family.

This movie made me laugh two times. And that comes from a Rowan Atkinson fan. Dull to non-existing humour, very very bad dialogues, very awkward moments, which should have translated in fun, but instead they turned out to be a stupidity and boredom.
It looks like someone tried to implement the fun aspect of Mr Been (who almost never speaks) and force him to interact with other characters, unsuccessfully.
Olga did her best to be the fatal/sexy russian spy, but it was extremely hard for her, because of Mr Been's character, instead of Johnny English.
There are a lot of silent moments which bring no value, a lot of old tech references which can be fun, if used properly. This movie made British country and people look like a bunch of idiots, MI7 as vegan, politically correct, humanitarian organisation. Please avoid it at all costs. Millions of brain cells will die!

I ended up at the movies because my wife, niece and daughter invited me. When they said Johnny English, I was far from excited. Turns out I ended up having a great time and a huge laugh. Would watch it again. Great mood therapy.

Will admit to having enjoyed the previous two films, while not considering either amazing. They were enjoyable films that succeeded at what they set out to do. So a large part of me was hoping for the same with this latest instalment, having found myself surprisingly entertained by the trailer. So 'Johnny English Strikes Again' was seen for those reasons, plus for such a great cast on paper and as someone trying to see as many 2018 films as possible.
Having seen 'Johnny English Strikes Again', it turned out for me to work generally as a silly inoffensive piece of entertainment. Which was right, because that was what was expected by me going into the film and what the first two were. It is not a great film and has faults, do think too it's the weakest of the three. However, having had my expectations dampened hearing negative things from word of mouth and from critical opinion from people with opinions mostly respected by me, it was better than expected. Best film of the year? Not even close. Worst of the year? Nowhere near that extreme either.
'Johnny English Strikes Again' does have a very flimsy story that didn't feel like it had enough to it to fill a feature-length film, it's also very low on surprises with a lot being easily predicted before even happening. It also came over as not much more than a series of gags and set-pieces that are easy to follow but don't always connect with each other, moments of disjoint here and there. The villain came over as too obvious too early and didn't seem that memorable or interesting to me, one can argue that the villains in the previous two were obvious too but they, especially Sauvage, did leave some impact at least.
Most of the gags and humour worked, but parts did have a slightly borrowed/recycled feel which took away from the surprise factor. Parts of the film go a little overboard with the broad silliness and momentum sometimes suffers with some dragged out stretches. The visual effects looked cheap and under-budgeted and there is some blatant product placement that distracts and adds nothing.
This sounds like 'Johnny English Strikes Again' is a bad film. Have already made it clear that from personal perspective it was not. Had no issues with the cast, Rowan Atkinson still has it and does bumbling and broad to often hilarious effect. Ben Miller is appealing and funny as returning Bough, while Emma Thompson brings sheer class to the film. Olga Kurylenko is both sexy and dangerous and the appearances from other well known faces like Michael Gambon and Charles Dance were fun. With the exception of some cheap visual effects the production values are fine, especially the gorgeous scenery and locations. The photography and editing are suitably slick. The music is pleasant with moments of infectiousness and the direction is a long way from a hack job.
Furthermore, there is some very amusing and smart dialogue, love the interplay between Johnny and Bough. There are moments that are laugh out loud funny, like with the virtual reality, and there is a good deal of excitement in the well choreographed set pieces. Did like more of a Mr Bean style with splashes of Inspector Clousseau, while not making it too different to the previous two films. 'Johnny English Strikes Again' doesn't try to be anything more than it strived and needed to be, try too hard (while still showing a good deal of effort) to cater to everyone's needs that it becomes a tonal mess (one of the biggest problems with 'Venom'), knew what it was trying to be and who to aim it at (a family audience).
In summary, didn't blow me away but not a regretted experience by any stretch. 6/10 Bethany Cox

I really enjoyed Johnny English (2003) with the genius that is Rowan Atkinson, John Malkovich as a fantastic villain and a surprising effort by Natalie Imbruglia it was a hilarious well constructed bit of comedy.
The sequel, passable stuff but lacked the magic of the first and a third film? Truth be told I was stunned when I saw a trailer suddenly pop up, did we really need this?
Well Atkinson returns as the inept spy and is great once again, the script however and the rest of the cast are more than a little lacking. The antagonist is distinctly average, Emma Thompson is just.....there and Olga Kurylenko is pitiful by comparison to the previous movies leading ladies.
Sure we have plenty of jokes on offer and many did make me chuckle, but they're not as quickfire as the first movie and certainly not as funny. Not only that but they're essentially the same jokes recycled just with different props and characters.
I like Johnny English, I love Rowan Atkinson but Agent English needs to be retired and Atkinson needs to embrace a new character because here he looked just plain tired.
Fans will get a kick out of it, but don't expect anything new brought to the franchise.
The Good:
Some very funny moments
Atkinson is still great
The Bad:
Olga Kurylenko pales in comparison to the previous movies leading ladies
Too many jokes miss the mark

As someone that calls himself a fan of Rowan Atkinson, this movie was of definite interest to me. I've enjoyed Atkinson since the days of Mr. Bean, and specifically enjoyed the first movie based on that series. I kind of liked the first two "Johnny English" movies, but was surprised how much I liked this one!
This one... blew the other two out of the water! I found myself laughing constantly at this movie, it was hysterically funny! This is the perfect movie to take the blues away from you. Not to mention, it's a breath of fresh air, because usually comedy films feel they have to offend, or push the boundaries. Yes, there's some language, and (very) brief rear nudity, but otherwise this is pretty clean comedy, without feeling like it's bland. Atkinson is such a comedic pro, and his physical comedy is genius! I would highly recommend this movie!

It seems they did the movie without a screenwriter.
Rowan Atkinson gags were so funny in the 90s but they look so old in 2018.
And Emma Thomson, how in the hell did you accept such a role in this movie?
Dull movie. Kids like it though

Rowan Atkinson makes a solid return to the big screen with Johnny English strikes again. This time, English (something of a technological luddite) is pitted against a Silicon Valley tech billionaire. The start is quite slow but it quickly picks up momentum as the movie progresses. The Dardue Sandstorm and VR scenes are side splitting and compensate for some slightly duller moments. All in all, it is a decent film with some hilarious moments. Don't expect high brow, subtle jokes or a clever plot. Go for some light comedy. A perfectly amicable film

I count myself as a huge Rowan Atkinson fan, and like most but not all of his material. This film falls into the latter category. Atkinson and Miller give a good performance but the rest of the film did not work for me, and I was just waiting for it too end. The original is still the best .

It's hard to make a movie after two laughing creative movies, despite that this third installment proved to be funny and friendly, you have a guaranteed laugh. But like any other movie it has its flaws, the story isn't as intriguing and diverse like others, it has short action sequences. The main purpose of the movie is to give a laugh and Rowan Atkinson does this perfectly with his brilliant acting, the other characters are just there but Rowan takes all the credit. In conclusion a great calmed movie, perfect for a laugh and a calmed time, it's relaxing to see a movie this simple that makes for a good time.

Sadly any humerous elements are included in the promotional film clips. If you've watched them, it doesn't get any better.
More than a little disappointing - if you want to see Rowan Atkinson at his best - watch the black adder series. I've had almost as much fun getting root canal work than seeing this rubbish - give it a miss.
