A young Peruvian bear travels to London in search of a home. Finding himself lost and alone at Paddington Station, he meets the kindly Brown family, who offer him a temporary haven.(Ref: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1109624/)

Even if you've never read the books or seen the TV series (I haven't), this is still a lot of fun. Silly jokes in a highly enjoyable, nicely played film that contains many laugh out loud funny moments. A surprising treat. I was surprised at how much I liked this movie. Certainly not the greatest kids movie ever made, but not the totally predictable movie I thought it would be. There were a few laugh out loud moments. I enjoyed the English humor and there were politically incorrect moments that may not have made it into an American film that I appreciated (such as getting someone inebriated on purpose). 
The interplay between the live actors and the computer generated bear was flawless which is a tribute to the actors involved, and the film looks great.

Paddington is a very hard movie not to like. It 's joyful upbeat main character gives the movie a warm feel that separates it from many of the crude mindless films this year. It is a highly entertaining all ages family film that's filled with beautifully rendered CGI and delightful performances from an A list British cast. It's bright, smart, sweet and funny and well worth the time invested in watching it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to make myself some delicious marmalade sandwiches.



Here's a sneak peek of the movie Paddington. Hope you enjoy some marmalade-y moments.
