In his latest mission, Johnny English must stop a group of international assassins before they eliminate a world leader and cause global chaos. With just one shot at redemption, he will use (or misuse) the latest high-tech gadgets and every trick in his playbook to protect us all. Critics cheer, “You’ll get a kick out of Johnny English Reborn!” (Scott Bowles, USA Today)

Critics Consensus: Arguably a marginal improvement on its mostly-forgotten predecessor, Johnny English Reborn nonetheless remains mired in broad, tired spy spoofing that wastes Rowan Atkinson's once considerable comedic talent.

Richard Propes

An unnecessary sequel to a mostly forgettable film.

If the troubled Bond franchise needs inspiration on how to reinvent itself, it could do worse than to look to Johnny English Reborn. The secret is not to take it so seriously.

Johnny English Reborn is amusing in parts and arguably better than the original, but ultimately it is a throwaway giggle for kids and indulgent parents.

Half-assed spoofs like this just don't work and come off as rather lazy and lame.

It's banal to the point that kids at the film's New York press screening were apparently bored out of their minds.
