people who don’t cry over paddington are the weaker species and will be taken by natural selection
that part where Paddington cures that man's depression by just cleaning his windows and letting the sun come in? that's what happens to me when I watch anything involving this little bear.
watching this in a british household is just 2 hours of someone saying every 5 minutes oh wow thats the guy from oh god i dont know but i recognise him and hes been in something jay open imdb is it the tesco commercial i think it was the tesco commercial
perfect film.
a MAGIC MIKE XXL-level delight (my highest recommendation).
obviously a refutation of Brexit, but naturally also such an imaginative, inclusive, open-hearted response to Trump's "shithole" mindset and xenophobia in general. My (sold out) NYC audience clapped during the credits… and then promptly shut the hell up as the brilliant final number kicked in.
also, this Paul King guy is a low-key master in the making. there are few "adult" filmmakers out there who couldn't learn something from how seamlessly this film sparks from riffing on Chaplin to commenting on the beauty of basic human decency… from MODERN TIMES to modern times without skipping a beat, both sides smashed together with globs of delicious marmalade.
Oscars for everybody. a…
I feel like people joke about this movie’s progressive prison politics with a wink, suggesting they weren’t an intentional/thoughtful choice for this children’s movie, but there’s a part where the warden is reading a bedtime story over the loudspeaker and only reads the line “It turns out the monster wasn’t such a monster after all.” A very clear notion that, it is intentional! And maybe the entire point! That prisoners being kind, misunderstood humans as deserving of respect and luxury as the rest of us is not an irony-laden punchline, but a genuine thing that children need to recognize as a possibility. Love love love this franchise where Paddington singlehandedly renovates the prison diet without a concern for health and Christopher Nolan cameos as a horny cop.
I was gonna give it a 9/10 but that last shot before the credits...fuck it 10/10. It may not be the single greatest movie ever made, but I can think of nothing else that deserves the title of "best-reviewed film of all time" more than this.
my dad left the room when sally hawkins dived in the water because he thought she was gonna "do stuff with Paddington like she did in the fish movie"
someone: of course, the best prison movie is the shawshank redemption
me, thinking about the prison break scene in paddington 2: yeah ok
Brendan Gleeson saying "marmalade" is the best thing to happen to cinema in 2018.
