My only other complaint is more with the MPAA than the filmmakers. The film earned a G rating despite a couple of expletives and one suggestive scene on the train. Although the offensive moments were brief it seemed to me the film would have been better rated at PG. However, it's still a good movie and was an enjoyable film for our entire family. When we first screened the movie we watched it with several relatives of various ages from 10 to 84 and all found ourselves laughing out loud several times through the movie.
In an age where comedies rely on bathroom and sex jokes, it's refreshing to see a film that relies on old-fashioned sight gags. It helps, of course, to have someone who can carry out that kind of performance. Rowan Atkinson is just the right person to do it. Welcome back, Mr. Bean. It's good to see you again.
