Editorial Review:
Filmed on a Boston stage in 1991, this concert film features British comic Rowan Atkinson in selected sketches from 10 years of performing and creating characters. Fans of The Thin Blue Line, in which Atkinson plays a British policeman, will be pleased, but Mr. Bean enthusiasts will be ecstatic with the handful of great Bean moments re-created for a live audience. A real treat for the Atkinson faithful. --Tom Keogh

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Very funny but a little distasteful
I bought this as a gift for my husband who loves Mr. Bean, but I didn't know anything about its content. We were more than pleased to find a few very funny skits but very disappointed to find that some of the skits were beyond crude. They were down right distasteful and not worth watching at all. However, as this is a DVD, you can easily skip over those skits and enjoy the hilarious clean ones. That's why I still give it 3 stars.
Rating: - Superior Performance
Outstanding one-man show from one of the most talented physical comedians of our time. Rowan Atkinson creates fully formed characters which are simultaneously engaging, entertaining, and sadly human. Although he has been mildly appreciated stateside, I recommend exploring his great breadth of work from Britain, including: Mr. Bean, the entire Black Adder series, and if you can snag a copy, Not the 9 o'clock News. NT9oCN has some outstandingly brash political satire and parodies that make the Daily ... Read More

Rowan Atkinson Live
I first saw this on cable several years ago. Anyone who enjoys Rowan Atkinson's comedic talents is in for a good time with this program. Recorded during a performance in Boston in 1991, it includes some classic irreverent jabs at British schools, religion, and social conventions. Atkinson appears supported by Angus Deayton as his straight man and narrator. Some routines are better than others, but humor is about as subjective as anything can get, so the bits that I didn't ...

Rating: - The best Rowan aktinson ever done.
This is in my eyes one of the abslolute best things hi has ever done. It covers about everything you want and it's made whith much humour and perfection. many sketches in perfect length. Dont miss the extras. For example "The guys after the game". Totaly hillarous. Buy it and laugh. Well spent money.

Rating: - Classic Comedy
Rowan Atkinson has to be one of the funniest people alive, I owned a similar VHS version and wanted the dvd. It differs slightly from my version but all the skits that I know and love are in there...(though you need to access the bonus features on the dvd to access the last few skits, the best ones). All in all it's an outrageously funny dvd; the graphics don't come out 100% but if you're a fan of Rowan Atkinson/Mr. Bean, then who cares?? Worth every penny in my opinion. I guarantee you'll be laughing ... Read More
