Review

A star rating of 5 out of 5.

Paddington Bear returns in a triumphant sequel, which sees our ursine hero framed for the theft of a valuable book by an egotistical actor. The film not only manages to be a superior sequel, but also one of the best family movies you're likely to see. The lovable bear takes the audience on an adventure that involves prison, police chases and a hatful of marmalade sandwiches. There are plenty of hilarious moments, with a script that peppers the dialogue with quick wit and funny misunderstandings, delivered by a consummate cast of performers led by Hugh Bonneville and Sally Hawkins as Mr and Mrs Brown. And, as the villainous thesp Phoenix Buchanan, Hugh Grant revels in a role that demonstrates just how deft a comedy actor he can be. Paddington 2 is irresistibly good fun and the perfect choice for kids and adults alike.
