I am so happy I caught an early screening of ‘Paddington in Peru’ as it is truly a wonderful addition to the beloved Paddington franchise, offering pure cinema escapism.
The film follows the iconic bear as he embarks on a series of charming adventures from London to the lush landscapes of Peru. The movie brings a sense of nostalgia for the nature and culture surrounding him as he reconnects with his roots.
The cinematography, color grading and animation are simply stunning, offering a beautiful backdrop and imaginative visuals that transport you into Paddington’s world.
The characters, old and new, are endearing, and the bear’s optimistic and polite nature continues to be the highlight of the movie. I love the casting for this film – Antonio Banderas and Olivia Colman are great additions. And of course, the return of Ben Whishaw voicing Paddington is simply delightful.
I enjoyed the script, and the humor was on-point leaving you with a smile on your face.
Overall, ‘Paddington in Peru’ is a wholesome and charming movie and rekindled my inner Paddington. Whether you’re a fan of the original movie or just looking for family entertainment, ‘Paddington in Peru’ is definitely worth checking out.
