A dash of Wes Anderson and a sprinkle of Jean-Pierre Jeunet, swirled around with a wonderfully fluid sense of airiness and light. It's mannered, yet carefree, colorful, and evocative. January 25, 2018 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

A movie that promotes the importance of family and good manners might seem like it could become the squarest of snoozes, but Paddington 2 is so transcendentally cheerful that it carries the day - and then some. January 19, 2018 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

Best of all is Hugh Grant as a villainous ham actor who gets to dress up in any number of ridiculous costumes before ending the film with a production number that only Mel Brooks has ever matched. January 18, 2018 | Full Review…

All in all, "Paddington 2" has a warmth and wit that's missing from many a children's movie. Don't let your January go by without it. January 18, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

[Paddington 2] has one out-loud laugh, plenty of sincere cleverness, vast technical ingenuity, a warm heart, lively performances and enough gyroscopic camera moves to make Max Ophüls jealous. January 17, 2018 | Full Review…

Its expert craftsmanship is keenly directed toward warming you with its wit, its unfussy kindness. At the centre of it all is a bear who's the real deal. That he's a CGI creation is at once impressive and enough to make your heart hurt. September 26, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…
