"Bring back an old one " thunders an exasperated British P.M,  As  the impending doom of a rogue cyber hack dawn's upon her.At 63 Atkinson looks unbelievably fresh and agile for his part , whether he is burning the dance floor or chasing a leggy Russian lass in a vintage Aston Martin.

The sharp edge of it's humour gets somewhat blunted due to a highly predictable narrative and few dull moments along the way.
