Editorial Reviews

Based on a character originally developed by Atkinson at university, the series follows the exploits of Mr. Bean, described by Atkinson as "a child in a grown man's body", in solving various problems presented by everyday tasks and often causing disruption in the process.[3] Bean rarely speaks, and the largely physical humour of the series is derived from his interactions with other people and his unusual solutions to situations. The series was influenced by physical performers such as Jacques Tati and comic actors from silent films.[3]

This review is from: Mr Bean: Another Box of Beans [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean is very very funny. Mr. Bean mumbles more often than he speaks, but this just gives you more time to laugh without wondering what is being said. Each episode is easily understandable, flows extremely well within each episode, and is suitable for the whole family. Mr. Bean will take your mind off of your everyday life. When you are feeling down Mr. Bean can pick your spirits up because no one's life is as bad as Mr. Bean's. It is difficult to get the full effect of Mr. Bean without seeing him. He is as innocent as a child, but he is an adult in an adult world. That is part of what makes him so funny. One episode has Mr. Bean playing miniature golf. And because he is "not allowed" to pick up the ball he makes a day of ONE hole. There he is calling "Fore!" and then hitting his golf ball all while on a city bus. I recommend Another Box of Beans because of the multiple episodes you get where as many of the other products contain only a couple of episodes. Because the scenes were made for TV, unlike movies that have elaborate scenes, the VHS is clear and as good as a DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars My opinion on Bean., July 12, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Mr Bean: Another Box of Beans [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you enjoyed the Bean movie, then you will like this collection. If you have never seen Bean before, he is a man of few words, but funny actions. You should give him a try!

This guy, Mr. Bean, is funny. He doesn't beat anyone else in comedy. Period
