Rowan Atkinson returns as the bumbling yet surprisingly resourceful spy, Johnny English, in this long-awaited sequel. The film opens with a high-stakes international conspiracy that only English seems unable to take seriously… yet somehow always manages to stumble through.

Fans of slapstick and physical comedy will be in familiar territory—classic pratfalls, absurd disguises, and awkward interactions with both allies and enemies abound. The script occasionally leans too heavily on predictable gags, but Atkinson’s impeccable timing and charisma keep the film engaging.

The action sequences are bigger and flashier than in previous installments, with a few clever nods to the spy genre that fans will appreciate. However, some jokes feel recycled, and the pacing occasionally falters between comedic beats and plot development.

Standout moments:

• English’s disastrous attempt at high-tech gadgetry in a luxury casino.

• A chase through London’s iconic streets with a series of improbable mishaps.

• Subtle meta-humor referencing the spy genre and Atkinson’s own legacy.

Verdict: Fans of Rowan Atkinson and lighthearted spy parodies will enjoy this escapade, though newcomers may find it uneven. It’s charmingly silly, occasionally brilliant, but never quite reaches the heights of the original classic.
