PADDINGTON is better than 5 of the 8 movies currently nominated for Best Picture.

also, while we're playing that game, i'll add that it's a better (and more nuanced) immigrant story than THE IMMIGRANT. and it would be even better if sprinkled with Werner Herzog's narration from GRIZZLY MAN.

we love the shthaaaaltudpdcu (sally hawkins takes home an anthropomorphic animal and loves them unconditionally despite public dissent cinematic universe)

... so are we sure that wes anderson wasn’t like ... the main creative consultant for this production design

What a nice bear.

Paddington Bear is an international hero, a comedic genius, and now my dearest friend. There's a scene where he reads a sign by the escalator saying that dogs must be held, so he steals a random dog and holds it before going on the escalator. Cinema is thriving.

Rating: 85/100

Engraçado, divertido e com um aesthetic bem bonita. Alguns detalhes técnicos deixar o filme um pouco amador

81/100

Maybe the most wholesome movie of all time? Paul King's adaptation of 'Paddington' is a triumph, its screenplay is airtight, humorous and clever, just as clean as its editing. These are themes we've seen before in other films but the way 'Paddington' incorporates these messages are leagues above most other child-oriented adventures. Sally Hawkins and Hugh Bonneville look as though they're having loads of fun and Nicole Kidman is cheesing it up perfectly as the oddly dark villain. I feel as though the third act definitely suffers a little bit, but still maintains the fresh and entertaining quality set through the first two acts. There's no reason for 'Paddington' to be written off as an embarrassing children's film as it proves to be much more than that.

I was convinced for years that Colin Firth was meant to be The Bear™️ in this film, but it turns out it's the fella from Skyfall. Cute.

...also Sally Hawkins must be protected at all costs.

i would die for sally hawkins in this movie, she is too pure

Hats off to the prophesying abilities of the filmmakers as Brexit happened just 2 years later!

a true gem of a film

Still as lovely as ever

Funny and well directed, Kidman surprisingly a weak link, great tone, sweet overt messaging, near perfect effects, very fun!

This film is a really surprising film!
Not only it is a great family film, it is an all around very coherent piece of storytelling, with narrative foreshadowing, characters development, many film references and amazing direction.
Add to that an amazing soundtrack (that is not available on Spotify 😢).
All the thanks go to Patrick H. Willems for the recommendation in his video essay about it!
