Cert: PG cert
Director: Paul King
Screen writer: Paul King (written by) Hamish McColl (screen story) and Paul King ... (screen story) Michael Bond (character "Paddington Bear")
Starring: Tim Downie , Madeleine Worrall , Lottie Steer , Geoffrey Palmer , Theresa Watson , Imelda Staunton , Michael Gambon , Ben Whishaw , Hugh Bonneville , Sally Hawkins , Madeleine Harris , Samuel Joslin , Michael Bond , Matt Lucas , Julie Walters , Jude Wright , Kayvan Novak , Nicole Kidman , Peter Capaldi , Eddie Nestor , Iain Mitchell , Jim Broadbent
Running time: 95 min
Parents advised to read before viewing film as some scene may contain scenes unsuitable for younger viewers.
Sex & Nudity: There is scene of flirtation involving Mr Brown (the father) who cross-dresses as a cleaning lady and the safety guard.
A man and a woman kiss
In many scenes a man questionably stares at a woman
A woman wears revealing clothes
Violence & Gore: The "glamorous" villain is a taxidermist played by Nicole Kidman. She can be very scary for young children (Nicole Kidman said her young children wouldn't be seeing the film because it's too scary!). She uses her seduction (tight dresses and close-ups of her high heels ) to achieve her own ends. She is cold-blooded; she does not show any emotion. She is sadistic and cruel.
Nicole Kidman's character is a taxidermist, who wants to stuff Paddington and put him in a museum. At one stage she takes delivery of a cute little monkey in a glass case and she is about to kill the animal when she is disturbed. She spends a lot of time chasing Paddington and shooting with a gun, which actually fires tranquilliser darts but young kids might not realise that.
Although there is no gore and nothing is shown, Paddington's uncle is stuck out in an earthquake and it is implied he is killed.
Profanity: A man calls a man (dressed as a woman) "Sexy"
Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking: Mrs. Bird (The Browns' housekeeper) helps the family enter the Natural History Museum by talking the guard into drinking with her one bottle of whisky (followed by a second one). Drinking games are shown, and the guard is encouraged by Mrs. Bird to address the challenge. Of course he loses and is left unconscious ...we are then shown Mrs. Bird on the roof having trouble walking and standing still, implying that she is drunk.
Frightening/Intense Scenes: Official Rating: PG for mild action and rude humor. some scene maybe frighting for younger views so viewer discretion is advised.
Story: A young Peruvian bear with a passion for all things British travels to London in search of a home. Finding himself lost and alone at Paddington Station, he begins to realize that city life is not all he had imagined - until he meets the kindly Brown family, who read the label around his neck ('Please look after this bear. Thank you.') and offer him a temporary haven. It looks as though his luck has changed until this rarest of bears catches the eye of a museum taxidermist.
Likes : A wonderful adaptation drawn from the characters immortalised in the books, this film is a major success. Heart-warming and humorous without being mawkish or over-sentimental, the antics and escapades of lovable Paddington Bear will surely delight fans of all ages.
Paul King has directed a film that is genuinely as magical as the books upon which it was based, that air as a series on TV for kids even in this film it manage to hold it magic & funny sense of humor that makes this one of the best film around that will have you in tears laughing you head off at.
This is the type of film that have the slap stick cartoonist on the spot comedy that will just have you laugh so hard you will have to be carefully not to fall off the sofa.
The Animation in this film just near perfect with the C.G.I it not over the top & with a perfect balance of location filming with added C.G.I of London's city. Ben Whishaw playing Paddington going the voice over just made the character adorable & funny special with the antic of getting in to trouble with curtain things which made this really funny.just an all round stellar casting special with Nicole Kidman playing the villain of the film & a cameo from (doctor who star) Peter Capaldi .
you looking for a great family entertainment film you really cant get better than this film, just outstanding from a animated series to a feature film the transaction is just perfecting done to not be over the top.
Dislikes : i think this film should of been a little big longer, i felt this film was a little short but still a great film just need to be a little extra longer
Overall : Funny as hell moment, Great voice acting, brilliant animation, wonderful magic film great for the family.
Rating: 5 out of 5 for entertainment / 10 out of 10 for concept / character of paddington.
