a classic.

I did not know anything about Paddington Bear going into the movie that is why we went. I throughly enjoyed it was kind of worried with all the kids there but once the movie started not one peep out of anyone in the theatre. It held everyone's interest from start to finish.

We found out the history of Paddington Bear and his family in Peru. Nicole Kidman playing a villain again was fun. The special effects of the bear was great. He didn't look phoney you would almost think you were watching a real bear in some of the scenes.

All the actors especially the mother were great. She brought the fun and laughter. The whole family were great.

This is going to be a classic.

Great for kids but even better for adults.

This movie was a big surprise to me and my husband. I saw the preview of Paddington 2 and decided to buy it, but while I was waiting for it, I bought the first one. It was funny and the story was sweet, but what got to me and my husband was the CGI regarding Paddington, unbelievable. This is a great movie for kids and adults.....we saw the second one too, just as much fun

Sweet and Funny Family Adventure

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2016

Paddington is a sweet family movie that doesn't suffer from the dillusion that children can't watch a movie with a character that does more than gas and be rude. Yes, I'll admit, there is humor that could be considered rude but it's more naive and innocent than malicious and it was a great day in the theaters for our entire family. My four year old, then three, watched her first movie from start to finish with Paddington and insisted we buy it when it came out. Well, it came out and I was looking for a fun family movie for movie night and this was perfect. The bears are done well and the effects are believable. I think my daughters believe they used real bears for this one...wait, did they? No, they didn't but they did a good job with it without going overboard on the "textures of hair" that you hear so often discussed with special effects. Good movie, very family friendly, everyone will laugh while learning a lesson on what family really means.

Great movie, terrible packaging

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2020

As the huge and obsessed movie fan I am, I can tell you that Paddington is definitely worth buying and adding to your collection. This movie is good for kids but great for adults, since it has a very powerful message that you will most certainly love.

But... what about its packaging? Well, the fact that the movie does not come with a digital copy really undermines it. But the worst thing about it is its case. The Blu-ray case that comes with it is just pathetic: it's extremely thin and you can easily break it by applying some pressure over it. It also comes with this recycling logo and, if you are a Blu-ray collector like me, you probably know that that logo usually is present among the cheapest Blu-ray cases that are manufactured out there. If you decide to buy this Blu-ray, you should consider buying a replace for its case.

P.S.: Another thing that I should mention is that this Blu-ray only comes with 5.1 audio, there's no 7.1, which is very disappointing for a movie that was released in 2014.

A kids movie that doesn’t talk down to kids

Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2019

I am a longtime fan of Paddington Bear. I own some books in the series as well as a few vintage bears. When I found out this movie was on Amazon, I didn’t hesitate to buy it. My toddler hadn’t seen it and I was excited to share something I love with him.

We watched it together and while he didn’t understand some of the more sophisticated humor, I did. I always appreciate Children’s filmmakers who don’t “dumb down” a story. Kids can appreciate visual nuance and challenging words and I believe films like this serve as a gateway to literature for little minds.

The visual richness, sweet storyline and nuanced but delightful dialogue make this a must-see for me.

This one was Just Right

I remember watching the original Paddington bear series and loving it as a child, and had low hopes for this film since so many movies and stories that once were old, are being remade into new and tend to be far off or end up being a waste.

Not this one.

I feel they did a great job with this film. It wasnt too overly sugar coated or full of bells and whistles. It was just right. Cute comedy, warm hearted touching scenes with adventure and mischief. I honestly thought my kids wouldnt be interested in watching it (twin 7yr olds) but they were glued to the tv the whole time, giggling away and it kept me entertained as well. Very happy I purchased this, it went beyond my hopes for what I was expecting since everyone seems to be doing remakes/reboots of older children stories/movies and they flop, disappoint or just too overly done.

I had been wanting to get some new movies to enjoy with my kids and this one hit the spot. Looking to watch it many more times.

So one day I was with my family in Yosemite national park. Located in California! The left coast, am I right? So me and my mom, my sister, and my uncle were walking down the road and it was stupid hot out. We were all cracking jokes like "Oh, turn the sun up, why dont ya?". Well lo and behold, a California Grizzly came charging from the woods and clipped my uncle's kneecaps right off with his stupid paw. As he crumpled to the dirt he screamed I THOUGHT THEY WERE FUNCTIONALLY EXTINCT. He was correct. If you look it up they died out so long ago. But this mother effer literally proceeded to rip my long lost father's head off right in front of my mom and sister. I do not know how this bear found the man that was once my progenitor, but I am ashamed to say I became aroused. Anyways I survived, but this movie gave me flashbacks and I wore out the rewind button on my remote for...reasons.

Lovely, feel good film.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2017

Lovely, feel good film. It has an old fashioned feel while also being modernised for modern children, the balance is just right. Excellent performances from Hugh Bonneville and Sally Hawkins. Hugh Bonneville gives a great comic performance and Sally Hawkins is deliciously eccentric. Julie Walters is very funny as the Scots housekeeper. I loved the Paddington books when I was a child, about fifty years ago and this version, though a bit different, captures the innocence and humour of the originals. Ben Whishaw is just right for the voice of Paddington. Thank goodness Disney didn't get their tasteless hands on it first! The music soundtrack is really good as well, particularly the calypso band playing on the London streets as Paddington passes by.

A good family film. Some adult supervision may be required.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 12, 2018

This is a movie for children although the intentions of the villain are quite gruesome. It's a fun film for all the family although some scenes may be unsuitable for small kids. As a lifelong fan of Paddington I thoroughly enjoyed this movie with its great special effects and competent acting talent. It's a good introductory storyline with an opening for sequels, of which there is now one.
The DVD menu is easy to follow and the picture and sound qualities are excellent.

Like Paddington from the TV series or books? See this movie!

When I was a lad (yes, we had TV then) one of the programmes on kids TV was an animated version of the Michael Bond's Paddington stories. It was narrated by the great Michael Hordern and used a kind of cut out animation technique (far before South Park) with monochrome backgrounds. It wasn't my favourite animation (DANGER MOUSE - DE DAH DE DAH DE DAH!!!) but it was enjoyable enough.
Being now a father, and wanting to impart the "This was like it was in my days" stich (cue comments about dinosaurs roaming the plains in response), I was both happy and worried when I heard that they were going to bring the Peruvian bear to the big screen.
I must admit, I shouldn't have been. Having a homage to the old TV animation at the start and featuring Michael Bond (now no longer with us alas) in a brief cameo were a good start. But the real life cast are excellent and the CGI bear...well the CGI is really really good, he doesn't feel like special effects at all. The storyline is good too.
Frankly, if you ever liked Paddington either in TV or book format (or indeed both), then this movie is a must see.

I recently went to see Paddington 2 with my grandchildren which was absolutely delightful and wonderful and decided to rewatch the first film to refresh my memory. Charming and beautifully done, the character of Paddington is spot on. My two granddaughters who have all the Paddington books loved both films and they are laugh out loud and totally heartwarming.

The voice of Ben Wishaw is perfect for Paddington and Hugh Bonneville as Mr Brown so funny.

A film for the entire family and one that will lift your heart

MORE STARS PLEASE !!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 30, 2015

5 stars is simply not adequate to rate this film.A joy from start to finish, this is a must see film for the young and young at heart to watch.
An excellent cast and beautifully created film.I havent laughed at a film like this in a long time and it was superb.The bathroom scene is priceless.I was baffled by the PG rating for language.The only "language" I came across was when Paddington was turfed out of the sentry box by a Guardsman, and if "bloody" rates a PG rating, what does Mrs Brown boys get for goodness sake?
This is a nice film for people of all ages,and I cannot recommend it too highly,Anybody who dislikes this film, is in severe need of a marmalade sandwich !
