Quick DVD Review – ‘Paddington’

Paddington

Hello everyone! 🙂

I also had this DVD for Christmas 2015!

‘Paddington’ is a brilliantly delightful movie featuring the famous little bear found on Paddington Station in London. I remember watching Paddington Bear in his own children’s TV show when I was a kid. Now I’ve seen the movie, I can safely say this has been a very pleasing movie to see for all ages!

The ‘Paddington’ movie is based on the original books by Michael Bond. This is a lovely story of a polite young bear journeying from darkest Peru to London in order to find a new home. He meets the Brown family who find him at Paddington Station. They call him Paddington and take him home.

There is a nice balance of humour and drama featured in this movie as well as a blend of live action cast performances and CGI animation on Paddington Bear. I couldn’t help smile and laugh whilst enjoying this film. It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed a British children’s film like this for a long time.

I was pleased to see familiar faces in this movie. There’s Hugh Bonneville (from ‘Downton Abbey’), Sally Hawkins (from ‘Persuasion’), Julie Walters (from ‘Mamma Mia’), Jim Broadbent (from ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’), Peter Capaldi (from ‘Doctor Who’) and Nicole Kidman (from ‘Bewitched’).

I highly recommend ‘Paddington’ as a DVD to have in your collection. It’s a delightfully pleasant film featuring that little bear in red hat and blue jacket with his love for marmalade made from oranges. I wouldn’t be surprised if a second ‘Paddington’ movie was made, which I’d like to see at the cinema.

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Tim. 🙂
