Paddington In Peru 2025 Movie Review
The film excels as family entertainment, blending gentle humor, vibrant visuals, and positive messages about family, perseverance, and kindness. The Peruvian landscapes, from lush Amazon rainforests to mountainous ruins, are beautifully rendered, providing a fresh backdrop to Paddington’s antics. Whishaw’s earnest voice performance remains the heart of the film, capturing the bear’s polite optimism.
Colman and Banderas are standout additions, with Colman’s quirky Reverend Mother stealing scenes and Banderas chewing scenery with gusto. The film’s lighthearted tone, slapstick comedy, and nods to classic adventure films (like Indiana Jones and The African Queen) make it engaging for both kids and adults.
Paddington in Peru is widely seen as the weakest of the trilogy. The absence of director Paul King, who helmed the first two films, is noticeable, as Wilson’s approach, while competent, lacks the anarchic wit and whimsical spark that defined the earlier entries. The screenplay, penned by Mark Burton, Jon Foster, and James Lamont, is criticized for being formulaic and less funny, with a slower pace and underdeveloped characters, particularly the Brown children, who are sidelined. Some reviews note uneven pacing, a convoluted plot, and a reliance on familiar tropes over the inventive humor of past films.
