New movie info! S. Dow of Moncton, NB, Canada has submitted a very detailed and well-thought-out critical review of some of the problems dealing with the movie. Click here to view.
I saw the Mr. Bean movie on Oct. 17, 1997. A must-see for all Bean fans! By now, I'm sure you've realized that I won't be writing a review of the movie. Time restrictions, among other things, have left me without much time. Anyone who wishes to write another one, I will be more thn happy to post it here.
The Mr. Bean Movie was being released Oct. 17 in Canada, and Nov. 7 in The United States. For the release dates in your country, go to http://www.mrbean.co.uk.
We have the scoop on the Mr. Bean movie. This discription is by Mr. Bean himself!
I get sent on a very important mission to meet some very important people in
America and represent The Royal National Gallery of England at the unveiling
ceremony for the return of Whistler's Mother to its native country.
For those of you who haven't heard of The Whistler's Mother, she's a
hideous old bat who sits in a chair wearing a cap. Whstler himself painted
his mum one day when one of his models was in bed with the flu. It is the
most famous painting in America and costs a lot of money (millions and
gazillions of pounds).
I go to stay with my new best friend David Langley who is the curator of
the Grierson Gallery in Los Angeles. Everyone in America is very nice
to me and treats me like royalty (they think I am Dr. Bean). I try to tell
them that all I do is sit in the corner of the art gallery looking at the
paintings, making sure nobody touches them but no-one is prepared to
believe me.
David takes me to an amusement park where we go on the ride of DOOOOOOOOOOM.
More like the ride of BOREDOOOOM. I get in trouble with the police when I try and
make it go faster and everyone else around me goes flying. Sissies!!!
Then I get David into more trouble with his wife and family and the people in suits at The
Gallery when by mistake I sneeze all over the painting and make the paint run. Oops.
Watch me in the film as I do a spot of doctoring in a hospital and accidently drop an M &
M sweetie into the open wound of a nice policeman as he is sitting on the operating table.
Double oops.
Then I have to make a very long speech about Whistler's Mother at the unveiling
ceremony in front of lots of cameras and men from the army (one of whom looks like Burt
Reynolds). Yipes and triple oops! I hope they don't notice the mess I've made of their
painting...
