Paddington Bear has become a beloved figure in modern cinema since the release of his first film in 2014. Directed by Paul King, the first two films emphasized a whimsical and kind-hearted character reminiscent of classic silent film heroes. The anticipation surrounding the third installment, Paddington in Peru, is high but also met with concern after King’s departure. The plot revolves around Paddington’s trip to Peru to find his missing Aunt Lucy, and while the film may not reach the heights of its predecessor, it still promises joy and delight for audiences.
Even the weakest Paddington movie will make for the most joyful and delightful film you'll see this year.
Through the first two Paddington films, King elevated the wholesome talking bear into a Buster Keaton-like folk figure whose innate sense of whimsy and kindness could reform even the most uptight grump.
Paddington in Peru opens with Paddington receiving a letter from the Home for Retired Bears in Peru, where his Aunt Lucy has been living.
The family's trip to Peru reveals Aunt Lucy's troubling behavior, prompting Paddington to investigate her disappearance, leading them on an adventurous quest.
