United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "Bean is like a malevolent Ace Ventura in slow motion (...) There are many moments here that are very funny, but the film as a whole is a bit too long (...) Rating: ★★ ½ (out of 4)" | POS |
United States | USA Today | "We'll forgive England for the Spice Girls. Maybe even Benny Hill, Joan Collins, Boy George, Fergie and that habit of pouring milk in tea. But with Bean's arrival, it might mean war." | NEG |
United Kingdom | BBC | "'Bean' demonstrates the misguidedness of translating comedy sketches to the big screen." | NEG |
United States | The New York Times | "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" | POS |
United States | ReelViews | "While Bean branches out from the format developed for the television series, it remains faithful to the concepts and constructs that led to its success" | POS |
United States | Chicago Reader | "Rowan Atkinson's recalcitrant TV character is the hub of this 1997 feature that will disappoint fans and nonfans alike" | NEG |
United States | AV Club | "When Atkinson tries to stretch familiar Beanisms into 80 minutes, the results are mostly unsatisfying" | NEU |
United States | USA Today | "At a certain point, Bean goes beyond awful to surreally awful" | NEG |
