Mr. Bean

The film was criticized for breaking with the program's tradition of having Mr. Bean as the centre of weird attention and for the alleged Americanization required to sell it overseas (Bean also speaks intelligibly, albeit with apparent difficulty, as opposed to his frequent mumbling in the TV show).^[1] However, the movie grossed over USD$250 million globally on a budget estimated at $18 million.^[2] The film currently has a 40% "Rotten" rating amongst collated reviews at Rotten Tomatoes with a 5.3/10 rating, with many critics suggesting that it was over-long and lacking in jokes.^[3]
Despite the negative reviews and box office success, the film has since received a cult following among fans of Mr. Bean when released on VHS and DVD.
