fresh:
It manages to be both old-fashioned and high-tech. It remains faithful to the character's roots while also placing him firmly within a contemporary setting. It's charmingly funny and shamelessly punny.

A respectable screen version of Michael Bond's classic children's books.

Paddington...comes off as a charming character. The kind of character that children around the world have fallen in love with...But even with all the bear's charm, a plodding pace and a questionable plotline leave the film version less desirable to watch.

Paddington is a wonder: warm, gentle, well-acted, funny without being stupid.
