Paddington in Peru

Oh no, I hate finishing movies asking if it was necessary but was this necessary? I realised almost instantly that Paul King wasn't involved much in this. None of the spectacles or music reached the height of the past 2 movies and both are far from realistic/perfect but this takes the marmalade. Adding in Oliva Coleman and Antonio Banderas to add nothing is a huge knock. The whole plot is a waste, and I wonder if Sally Hawkins dipped before or after this came into production. She was a key character in Paddington's development and it definitely needed her. The bear himself was hollow and almost completely recycled. I'd give it a dislike and I don't why I'm not.

You can really feel the absence of Sally Hawkins & Paul King. It's been a while since I've watched previous Paddington movies, but I noticed immediately, and it's like a glaring hole in this 3rd installment. However, I still love Paddington as a character, and the Brown family was great along with the adventure we went on.

I quite enjoyed this. It's not as fun or insane as Paddington 2 but there's enough charm here to make this an entertaining watch.

Amazing!!

4/5 - I LOVE PADDINGTON 🍊

Super sweet, super nostalgic. I love Paddington so much and the films are just always so wonderful and whimsical I love them a lot. Unfortunately it’s not as good as the others, the loss of sally hawkins & paul king is very apparent, but still a very good film on its own & Olivia Colman is always a welcome addition to any film :-)

Strange but okay.
