Profile of Bean

Bean can be described as humorous and offbeat. The plot revolves around a goofy hero, a "fish out of water", and a situation where nothing goes right. Its comic aspect comes from a comedy of errors and slapstick humor. Bean's main genres are comedy and independent. In approach, it is not serious and realistic. It is located in Los Angeles. Bean takes place in the 1990s. It is based on a TV series. The movie has received attention for being a blockbuster and an award winner. Bean is well suited for teens.

Summary of Bean

At the Royal National Gallery in London, the bumbling Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson) is a guard with good intentions who always seems to destroy anything he touches. Unless, of course, he's sleeping on the job. With the chairman (John Mills) blocking Bean's firing, the board decides to send him to a Los Angeles art gallery under false credentials. When Bean arrives, his chaos-causing ways are as sharp as ever, and curator David Langley (Peter MacNicol) has the unenviable task of keeping Bean in line.

Whatever the reason, Bean saddles Atkinson with a story that hangs on him like a dead weight and a filmmaking style that surrounds him like dead air. Full Review

The New York Times

But while rooted in British sensibilities, Bean is not to be confused with a Noel Coward comedy. Not every gag in Bean succeeds, but compared with most comedies, this one is a keeper. Full Review
