This is not the highest level of comedy, or even the highest level of effort from everyone involved, but at least they get out of the way and let the man work.

Johnny English Reborn is funny enough to make you laugh and plausible enough, in an exploding-umbrella type of way, to make you care.

The humor isn't as dual-edged as, say, a Pixar comedy. But director Oliver Parker knows his genre well enough to lampoon the mainstays of the spy-flick genre, from impossibly high-tech weapons to foot chases worthy of Olympic medals.

"English Reborn" isn't terrible and is certainly seriously harmless...But it does remind one of the glorious past and the potential Atkinson never realized in his movies, even the hit ones.

It's banal to the point that kids at the film's New York press screening were apparently bored out of their minds.

Atkinson revives the comic secret agent that he first introduced in a series of TV ads in the UK, but this thin script gives him nothing remotely like a rebirth.

At gunpoint I might confess to smiling when English pummeled the Queen of England with a tea tray, but the babysitters for the target audience will know that his best bits are burgled from Austin Powers.

A fun, family-friendly comedy that feels like a combination of Austin Powers and Ernest P. Worrell.

Austin Powers, this is not, and I suppose that's what most people would have been expecting when they saw it.

Joke after joke falls painfully flat. Stay home and introduce your kids to Mr. Bean, instead.

What the film really needed was an injection of comedy that plays to Atkinson's strengths. He's a funny guy, but this material just isn't worthy of him.

It would seem to appeal mostly to hard-core fans of the "Mr. Bean'' star and children who laugh at the sight of men being repeatedly kicked in the groin.
