Chronology

Paddington returns to Peru to visit his beloved Aunt Lucy, who now lives at the Retirement Bears Home. As the Brown family gathers, a thrilling adventure ensues as a mystery takes them on an unexpected journey. Paul King, the director of the previous two films, decided not to direct this installment. However, he came up with the idea for this third film and was involved as an executive producer.

Brown has taken a new direction

Well, Mrs. For those who don’t know, previous incumbent Sally Hawkins said it was time to get on with it, but to me, Emily Mortimer is just an older product of the London School of Lovely. She’s moved on, but Emily’s initial moves are annoyingly flat and uninspiring. For a few minutes I thought Oh no!!

Let’s be honest

I tried really hard to warm up to her, later in the movie she progressed strangely… The least they could have done was give her a meaningful script, she seemed too much like a little wife who didn’t talk much. I’m sorry Madeleine Harris is going to play Judy, maybe next time she could have tried being Sally Hawkins, but she had big shoes to fill and Sally was a roarer. In the end, they all played their roles perfectly, so the cute Peruvian takes the initiative this time and comes to the aid of the family members.

the target audience

A family member is in trouble, and the oldest folly and deadly sin is the scenery of a distant place is stunning, simply wonderful in a film with a lot of fun, action and tears, but for very young, not very brave children the performance will be less warm, scary, sometimes I thought that visually it was just as fantastic as the previous films, although the script is flat and a bit predictable at some points, the mysteries were simple enough for a five-year-old to figure out… aha… Haha …. this does not take away from the CGI impact of the film and especially the ear-splitting.

Just sayin’, I don’t think this is the end

Forget it if you have healthy phobias for certain creatures (not snakes). It seems that Bonneville had a hair transplant, you don’t know, but he acts great as always, as do Walters and some great newcomers to the story.
