About
If you want a fast, goofy James Bond-style spoof powered by Rowan Atkinson’s deadpan misadventures, you’ll likely enjoy this; Not for you if you dislike slapstick comedy or want a more serious spy thriller like Quantum of Solace.
Pros: Rowan Atkinson-led laughs; silly spy spoof; family-friendly fun | Cons: uneven humor; some crass jokes; predictable gags
