    This is a slinky little number... Regé-Jean Page aside, everyone is uniformly excellent. That guy just doesn't have it.

    More words incoming... In short, a mess of an adaptation and production.

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    Paddington 2

    ★½

    I don't get it... I appreciate I'm not the target audience, and to be fair, both the kids liked it. You can read all kinds of classic film references into this, like Chaplin or Ealing Comedies, but there's a reason people don't make films like that anymore.

    The central family are just a bumbling collection of rich, middle-class white clichés. The dad especially is the worst. Paddington himself is a weird overgrown baby-man, just prat-falling through the film.
