I don't think I've seen the second Johnny English movie. I really liked the first one when it came out but in fairness I was 12 at the time so maybe it doesn't hold up at all.

Kind of wish Rowan Atkinson was making more Maigret tv movies, though.

Except the black widow part is incredibly badly done. "We can't be together! I'm a mutilated monster! I'm... infertile! A MONSTER I SAY"

It's been a while since I've seen it, but I figured her calling herself a monster referred to her assassin training, not being infertile. I think I'm in the minority with that interpretation though.

That's probably what it meant but it's not really how it managed to come off.

And then at the end of the movie, the strong woman becomes a damsel in distress and I remembered that this was a Joss Whedon movie.

The first film doesn't hold up well at all. The sequel is surprisingly good though, mostly because they changed the basic concept from "Johnny English is a complete idiot who fails at everything" to "Johnny English is mostly an idiot whose unorthodox methods work because no one expects them to".

I can't remember a single thing from the first Johnny English but the second one was pretty inoffensive and occasionally funny-ish thanks to Rowan Atkinson's goofy hijinks.

The movie is seriously released on 4.20? I was really convinced they were fake because of that.
