Paddington in Perú: reviews

What the critics say average 6.7 from 5

• 8.0 ColliderRoss Bonaime Paddington in Peru might not be at the same level as the first two films, but it's still absolutely a worthwhile adventure. We're still getting all the characters and ideas that we love, just packaged in a different way than we're expecting. If anything, Paddington in Peru proves just how malleable this character is, and how well he can work in either quiet, simple stories or grand adventures. Read
• 7.5 Roger EbertMatt Zoller Seitz Paddington in Peru is pleasurable mainly for its just-hanging-out-with-friends vibe, which it wears with quiet grace. Read
• 7.0 Los Angeles TimesKatie Walsh Paddington in Peru is still incredibly touching in its story of acceptance from both found family and birth family. It's still silly and amusing with a childlike innocence and purity of heart that appeals to both kids and adults. It still pays homage to film history in a way that will delight cinephiles. But having seen the heights of "Paddington 2," this third installment could only pale in comparison. Read
• 6.0 The Hollywood ReporterLeslie Felperin While Paddington in Peru sadly lacks the absurdist wit and decidedly dark edge that elevated the first two Paddington movies, it's serviceable enough given its limitations. Read
• 5.0 The WrapWilliam Bibbiani This isn't the first sequel to desperately transplant its characters into a tropical or jungle locale, and it isn't the best. Then again, the competition includes Weekend at Bernie's II, Speed 2: Cruise Control and Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise, so it isn't the worst either. Read
