worst film in a long time
wow! the fake britain the cheesy rubbish lines the fake acting my god! you would have to be 3 to like it! diabolical piece of trash! i loved toystory the croods but this is so false and cringeworthy
shareI would have enjoyed it more if they didn't insist on shoving the moral of the story in my face for the last third of the film (or whatever). I've seen that with other modern films. Why do they do that?

What sad lives you must have. Very entertaining and enjoyable film.
shareI'm more entertained by much older films (mostly pre-1970 movies) in which they don't go shoving morals down my throat.

Well, Paddington is based on a series of books that are mostly pre-70s with the first one coming out in the late 50s.
The movie actually had a lot of references to the books and I felt it did a great job of trying to be inclusive to anyone that has fond memories of those books or whatever (I'm not actually one of those people and was Dr. Seuss and Curious George for my earliest books). I truly am not an expert on the Paddington series... but with the nature of the movie, I felt it played out fairly similarly to what a children's book should.
I mean... this is a book about Paddington Bear! It is a licensed product... as such, I think you have to make some concessions to the idea that the movie should play out accordingly.
But even ignoring the idea that it is a licensed product based on a hugely successful children's book... it IS a children's movie... so yeah, there's that as well.
Totally agree. It was entertaining and visually engaging.
shareWorst? Seriously?
I'm not british. not even american - I am from Baltics and I liked that movie.
Because british and american film industries are quite different I usually watch american movies because most british movies has not "that action pack" (even not in family movies).
But this movie is one of the fewest british movies I could watch.
