I was surprised that no one here had commented about this movie yet. Saw it today at Megaplex Gateway Screen 5. The p[resentation was in DLP... the preshow had a real bad look to it and was absolutely awful in content. Image quali9ty was excellent on all studio content with previews mixed scope and flat but the top/bottom masking left open to flat. Brightness eemed to be at 14fl and was super even as is expected of DLP. I still continue to prefer DLP over film.

The movie was typically Mr. Bean who in this film is true to his form and says nary a word... there are some new gags here that make this film worth seeing... the little shed along the highway sequence being one of them. All in all an enjoyable film I would give three stars. Its not the best that Mr Bean has done but the new gags are a real gas!

Actually, he spoke quite a few words ... "oui" and "gracias" being the two most frequent (except maybe for that "bean/sabine" bit).

I saw the trailer, that was enough for me. I hope it bombs so we don't have to play it.

I previewed this film on my early Friday morning movie build and I must say that I could not stand the film. [thumbsdown]
