KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

lizgirl78 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.

mackenzieajones-01797 This is one of the most creative, lovely, and visually stunning movies I have ever watched with my family. My son and I were laughing, tearing up and cheering.

wuawuamusic I remember Paddington from school around 25 years ago. I always knew that it's surprisingly smart for child books. But I kind of never liked Paddington. That said, still, I watched the movie out of curiosity. So, I hated stuff like the Chipmunks movies and most such new film interpretations with originally drawn characters. I didn't expect much. But... wow! I laughed so much and loved all the small details. The writing, the acting, the directing, editing and the CGI, etc... is just enormoulsy great! Everything is so much better than all this generic, stupid Hollywood stuff of today's times. And the movie seems to work even for people that usually never watch such a movie. I mean, I'm kind of a Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders, etc... guy. So... 10 stars for sure!

taylorjan-63962 We all loved it. The family including five year olds sat and watched this. From the start, with the exception of laughter, we were all mesmerised. The film is great to look at, with stunning locations and the Brown's house is absolutely beautiful. The humour is there for all ages. Loved Hugh B dressed as a char lady with his wonderful Welsh accent (recognised a couple of actors from Horrible Histories at the records office) . The scenes in the record office are hilarious with clever CGI. I remember shops giving change via those tubes and pods.I hope the reviewer (selffamily?) can manage to watch it again as it's a beautiful, feel good film. So there's a baddie in it? I'm sure Michael Bond wouldn't have objected. Cruella de Ville managed to scare me as a child and many more, as did The Child Catcher in Chitty, kids love this. I can't praise this film enough, or describe how I feel when watching it (warm and fuzzy?)
