Memorable, crazy movie

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Also the bears CGI and the locations are stunning!

Paddington is one of those funny, nonsensical and unrealistic family comedies that is simply delightful to watch. It tells the story of how Paddington came to London. It's quite funny, heart warming and well done overall. The special effects are very good, too. The actors do a brilliant job. The plot and script flow smoothly. A perfect family film - with practically no crude material (unlike many other "children's" films and shows).

This review contains spoilers.Paddington is a movie that blends the Paddington station bear with a live action cast. The movie follows an animated bear as he finds a new home after a catastrophe. Along the way, he encounters a family that takes him in until Paddington can find information about an explorer. Meanwhile a villainess wishes to capture Paddington.Paddington is an enjoyable movie. Although aimed at children, the movie can be enjoyed by adults. It touches themes such as abandonment and family. The movie starts by pulling at these themes to drive both audience involvement and Paddington's motivation. The movie is also quick to be light-hearted so as to not drive children away. One of the ways the movie does this is by Paddington's love of marmalade. Paddington, the Brown family, and the villainess are well-realized characters that have their own motivations of helping or hurting Paddington. Mr. Brown, the father of the house, becomes more endearing as the movie continues. Nicole Kidman as the taxidermist that wants to kidnap Paddingotn is incredibly charming in the role. When her motivation is revealed, the audience could understand her goal. Paddington is of course a well-likable character that is animated well.I highly recommend Paddington for being a great movie for any audience.I watched this movie on Amazon Prime and the video quality could be better. The video suffered from artifacts that appear randomly. There was some skipping, but none of this hurts the enjoy-ability of the movie.

Theres One Thing For Sure Paddington Is A Great Story By A Wonderful Author. The Film Does Not Fail To Uphold The Standard Of The Book. The Film Has A Great, Strong Cast. The Film Has The Right Balance Of Humour, Charm, And Dramatic Momments. Whilst The Overall Plot Is Predictable, It Is Still Very Enjoyable, And Is A Good Two Hours Of Entertainment. I Recommend This Film To Anyone. I Wasnt Dissapointed By This Film. Very Good Right The Way Through, And It Is Sure To Leave You Smiling At The End.
