Man Vs Bee review: Rowan Atkinson's Netflix comedy is a better Bean

Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 24th June 2022

Man Vs Bee review

For offering a quick burst of expertly performed silliness, Man Vs Bee earns its stripes.

Man Vs Bee review

The actor is at his comic best as an accident-prone housesitter who goes on a rage spree and destroys a high-tech home in an epic battle.

Stuart Jeffries, The Guardian, 24th June 2022

Rowan Atkinson is right about 'punching down'

Comedy should punch in whatever direction it pleases.

Charlie Peters, Spiked, 21st June 2022

Man Vs Bee, review

Rowan Atkinson's bumbling comic creation seems awfully familiar.

Anita Singh, The Telegraph, 20th June 2022

Man Vs Bee review

The freshest thing here is the format - episodes that are just 10-15 minutes long. Atkinson has lost none of his skill and you will watch it quite happily, but it just lacks the genius of Mr Bean.

Man Vs Bee review

The first scene tells viewers that the conflict between Trevor and the bee will escalate to even sillier heights. However, the soulless and predictable nature of the opening three episodes aren't enough to generate the buzz needed for audiences to stay engaged.

Man Vs Bee, review

Rowan Atkinson's Netflix comedy is a better Bean.

Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 20th June 2022

Man Vs Bee, Netflix, review

The man better known as Mr Bean rails against cancel culture... by fighting a bee.

Emily Baker, i Newspaper, 20th June 2022

Why Man Vs Bee is a comedy masterpiece

Nothing sums up the times we're living in better than Rowan Atkinson chasing a bee through a house with a flamethrower.
