Lolz Reborn...kinda.

Well, this isn't the one that I thought I would do before, but this'll work.

Last Friday, I watched Johnny English Reborn. The basic idea is that he's come back after quite a while, because someone specially requested him. He's looking a bit greyer, and the movie is a little as well, but it certainly has some good moments.

One thing that does happen a bit, though - I get a "cringe" moment with some things that happens in movies (I'll probably do a post to actually explain that later), and that certainly popped up a few times. But that's half of the idea with Johnny English, really - he's just a bit of an idiot.

Though there are some classic gold scenes. One of the best is certainly where he's chasing after a man through a high-rise area. The man is doing these elaborate things to get away, and English is using his "wisdom" to figure out simpler ways to do the same thing. One classic example is where the man climbs down the outside of it, on the scaffolding, and English takes the elevator. And gets down to the bottom at the same time, very suave.

All in all - a fairly enjoyable movie, good for the younger generation, but does have some moments of the corn, and a bit of suspension of disbelief at times. Nevertheless, certainly a decent movie.

  1. Great to hear your opinion on this...I am yet to watch JE 2, but it is definitely on my 'too-see' list, as I LOVED the first. Good to hear it's worth the watch! :D
