Paddington is a wonder: warm, gentle, well-acted, funny without being stupid.

A good-hearted film... as witty and clever as it is charming...

Paddington...comes off as a charming character. The kind of character that children around the world have fallen in love with...But even with all the bear's charm, a plodding pace and a questionable plotline leave the film version less desirable to watch.

Jan 01, 2020So fuckin' cute. I mean the whole aspect of this movie's "villain" was a disaster, but what a delight it was to watch Paddington go.Gimly M Super Reviewer

Mar 31, 2019I wrote this movie off for a long time. It took me four years to get around to seeing it. When I saw the trailers, I just thought "oh great, more Garfield/Alvin and The Chipmunks bull****". Everything about it's CGI live-action family film hybrid screamed "we've done this before, and it was garbage" to me. It was only after years of insistence that no, this time it's good, that I actually got around to seeing it and...yeah...it is, it really is. It doesn't reinvent the wheel or anything, at it's core this is still a fairly standard family film about finding a place to belong, and I really didn't care for the central conflict or the villain. But nothing about it is inherently bad, at worst it's just standard in a movie that is otherwise really good. Literally from the first minute of screen-time as I was settling in I had already started laughing. The movie is just unbearably (no pun intended) funny, and it manages to be funny in a way that is clean and clever. It uses wit and charm to convey it's humor and it works. When it's not funny, it's still extremely charming and just damn likable. Yeah it's a pretty basic story, but damnit all the story works. Sure, I don't think we really needed this villain, but as far as the story of Paddington finding a family and a home goes it's genuinely heartwarming. The best family film I've seen in a very very long time.Michael M Super Reviewer

Mar 02, 2018An utter delight. There are a number of great gags, and the "modern world" setting is just fantastical enough that the character doesn't seem out of place.Alec B Super Reviewer

Apr 20, 2017Although Paddington was a little before my time I knew about him and kind of remember a cartoon show when I was little so I was never really that botherd about this but the rave reviews came in so I eventually gave it a watch with my 2 young children and it's a really funny family film full of heart, Yes they did turn Paddington into a accident prone slapstick feature but if you're looking for a film that the whole family will enjoy then Paddington is the perfect movie for you.Jamie C Super Reviewer
