a bomb wiped out Britain's secret agents, leaving only Johnny English behind. as confident as he was as a spy, he was careless and often make a mess out of his missions. now that he remained as the only spy, they were forced to assign him the missions. English took over the case of the stolen Crown Jewels with his assistant. during the investigation, English was attracted to a mysterious woman called Campbell. he later discovered that the theft was performed by a rich descendant, whom the head of security refused to believe. English was forced to chase after the thief to proof his case.
the plot was predictable and it was easy to see some funny moments approaching, though still managed to humor us to some level. Johnny English was an interesting character, often intelligent when it came to looking for excuses, yet most of the time expectantly stupid. his assistant however, managed to have us laughing quite hard several times, throwing in real humor when it was least expected. the film could have been better. as a Rowan Atkinson's fan, we could have expected too much out of his first film.
