Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Full disclosure: I did not expect much from this movie. I threw it on to have something light in the background, but Paddington won me over. Some great directing and CGI work have brought the quintessential British bear to life, and he is equal parts funny and heartwarming. Paddington's adventures in London are perfect viewing for the whole family.
Calling this film enchanting and delightful barely covers it. From the cast to the writing to the cinematography to the music, it just plain nailed family storytelling. At a certain point, I started wondering if Wes Anderson was a consultant: every detail was perfectly placed. Like I said, enchanting and delightful.
Paddington is one of the best family movie i ever seen.Adults,kids ,all must need to see this.
Paddington plays like a modern British fairytale, and boy does this film brim with gorgeous colours, great actors and some truly great and charming CG-animation bringing the world's favourite Maramalade-eating bear to the big screen.Paddington is 'jolly-good-stuff' that is as British as British family films and comedy gets: full of down to earth yet relatable and sometimes self-mockery. Paddington you could swear was at least partially funded or meddled by American hands, but that is not the case here. One of the UK's most famous literary icons gets transformed into a believable and modern animal that feels like he's in a story custom-made as creative yet cinema-referential; it has great charm and feelings reminiscent to the Harry Potter films in its giddiness, like The Jungle Book in the opening sequence, and the benefits of gorgeous London-based scenery that drives the story complimented by the occasional homage to the Mission Impossible movies.Paddington: I expected a kid's movie that would be enjoyable and harmless; it's charm may just about make those rough-gutted moviegoers out there real sick. Overall it's an absolute joy and feel-good movie where you can be absolutely sedated by its stress-free story and characters. It's happy cinema done right.
