Review of Mr. Bean’s Holiday
(Mr. Bean’s Holiday was provided to me by Click Communications for the purpose of review.)
At our house we are huge fans of the first Mr. Bean movie, Bean. The scene where Mr. Bean destroys the painting Whistler’s Mother makes me cringe and laugh at the same time. Rowan Atkinson is brilliant in whatever he does, but he will always be Mr. Bean to us.
In Mr. Bean’s Holiday
As you can imagine, chaos ensues, including accidentally separating a son from his father, getting hired and then fired as an extra in a World War II film, and appearing in a film being shown at the Cannes Film Festival. The kids and I laughed our way through the whole film. You have to see it if only for the scene where Mr. Bean lip-syncs to Puccini’s “O Mio Babbino Caro.”
Best of all, this family comedy is rated G. It was perfect viewing for the holiday weekend.
You would get along great with my neighbors… they are HUGE Mr. Bean fans. Me… not so much. I had to take the kids to see Mr. Bean’s Holiday at the theater a while back. It was painful for me. I kept wanting to scream, “Just *say* something, for goodness sakes!” I couldn’t believe the man could actually live on his own. I will agree that the lip-syncing part was entertaining, though.

He walks out the door and slides through the bottem part of his door, walks back into his house and opens them. I don’t remember that part, though.
Love you.
P.S.I can’t believe Caitlin doesn’t really like it!
