Paddington in Peru: New movie is smarter than your average bear.

Slate  

The past decade has brought the world a lot of political and economic chaos, but in its defense, that same span of time has also given us the Paddington Bear movies. 2015’s Paddington and 2018’s Paddington 2, adaptations of the beloved children’s book series first introduced by British author Michael Bond in 1958, set a newly high bar for family …

As delicious as a marmalade sandwich can be, too many of them can be too much, especially when they aren’t made by someone who knows how to spread the jam just right. Director Paul King has been replaced by Dougal Wilson, making his feature film debut, and original co-star Sally Hawkins has been replaced by Emily Mortimer as Mary, the …

Paddington in Peru: Is this bear cutewashing the U.K.?

Slate  

I need to talk to someone about Paddington Bear. Prior to the release of the 2014 film Paddington, I had no feelings toward Paddington Bear, a character invented by the author Michael Bond in the 1950s who is found on a train platform at Paddington station having arrived in London from “darkest Peru.” Like many children in Britain, I had …

Movie Review: ‘Paddington in Peru’ is buoyant and bright, and that’s enough

Associated Press  

In the 11 years of what we can fairly call “the Paddington era,” the bear, himself, hasn’t changed so much as a toggle on his blue duffle coat. And that’s made Paddington not just a dearly beloved big-screen icon but something like the mascot to modern Britain — another guileless Pooh deserving of his own “The Tao of” bestseller. “Paddington …

Daily Mail  

Rating: The honey has finally run out for Winnie-the-Pooh. Although a whisker-less entertaining than 2017’s sublime Paddington 2, this eagerly-awaited third adventure certainly pushes the boat out – and indeed down the Amazon, where I suspect the hand of co-writer Mark Burton in playfully referencing The African Queen, the Indiana Jones films, The Sound of Music and 2001: A Space …

A Worthy Adventure in the Amazon: A Review of Paddington in Peru

BBC  

Paddington in Peru is a wholesome, richly coloured adventure yarn that moves on from the previous one in some shrewd ways. The most obvious departure is that, as the title suggests, Paddington in Peru doesn't stay in London for long. The film follows Paddington as he sets off on a journey to South America with his family and a riverboat …

Paddington movie reviewed: Adaptation of children’s book is surprisingly good.

Slate  

These chilly winter months, my general feeling about children’s movies can be expressed in four simple words: make more of them! Directed by Paul King, best known for helming the cult-favorite British television series The Mighty Boosh, Paddington is also visually stylish and inventive in a way that many live-action children’s movies don’t bother to be. The screenplay, by King …

How well we know him. For parents looking for a film that’ll please them and their kids in equal measure, “Paddington” is — as Goldilocks would say in that other bear story — just right. He brings with him only a suitcase filled with jars of marmalade, the hat the explorer left behind, and a tag around his neck: “Please …
