After a deadly earthquake destroys his home in Peruvian rainforest, a young bear (Ben Whishaw) makes his way to England in search of a new home. The bear, dubbed "Paddington" for the london train station, finds shelter with the family of Henry (Hugh Bonneville) and Mary Brown (Sally Hawkins). Although Paddington's amazement at urban living soon endears him to the Browns, someone else has her eye on him: Taxidermist Millicent Clyde (Nicole Kidman) has designs on the rare bear and his hide.

Paddington is a wonder: warm, gentle, well-acted, funny without being stupid.

While this was more enjoyable than the sequel, I still found this a chore to get through. I just can't enjoy these.

Paddington is easily one of my favorite movies of all time! i love all the characters. Paddington is the funniest character in the movie! and i also loved all the other minor characters. the browns family. the villain was also really good. my favorite scene was definitely when Paddington caused a lot of trouble in the brown's bathroom. this movie has heart and emotion! overall, 9.5/10.

This movie was great and very funny. I saw it with my family and it was in Spanish when I saw it for the first time, but when I saw it in English it was also the same. I liked the accents of the Actors.
