Paddington In Peru review
Our favourite bear's third adventure is a whisker behind its predecessor but it still pushes the boat out... all the way down the Amazon.
Brian Viner, Daily Mail, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Clumsy comedy with a heart of gold.
James Harvey, Film Stories, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
By the end of this feel-good film, it's hard not to feel all is okay with the world.
Grant Rollings, The Sun, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Everything you want is there but it doesn't reach the lofty standards of Paddington 2.
Nicholas Barber, BBC, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
With a changeover in the writing and directing departments, the third outing for the well-mannered ursine hero is pleasant kids' fare, but lacks the anarchic sparkle of its instant-classic predecessors.
Guy Lodge, Variety, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
You can take the bear out of South America, but think twice before taking him back.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Delivers exactly what you want from a Paddington movie.
Ian Sandwell, Digital Spy, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
The marmalade-loving bear goes back to his Peruvian roots in this fun, if more formulaic, adventure sequel.
Jonathan Romney, Screen Daily, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Olivia Colman plays a singing nun. I'm almost prepared to say that's all you need to know about Paddington In Peru.

Leila Latif, Games Radar, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
A jolly fun adventure that doesn't hit the heights of its predecessors.
Tim Robey, The Telegraph, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review

Clarisse Loughrey, The Independent, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
The lovable bear heads to the Amazonian jungle in a sequel that is entertaining and endearing, but lacks the originality of its predecessors.
Ed Potton, The Times, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
I was truly tickled by Paddington In Peru's joyful fun.
Tori Brazier, Metro, 4th November 2024

Threequel fails to climb to franchise heights.
Alistair Ryder, The Film Stage, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
It's triple gold for our favorite bear.
Jasmine Valentine, Dexerto, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Paddington looks for his roots in a sequel that loses its way.
David Ehrlich, IndieWire, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Above all, this is a film about what it feels like to belong to more than one place and about the importance of fitting into one's new surroundings all the while being proud of where we come from.
Linda Marric, Hey U Guys, 4th November 2024
Richard Gadd on life after Baby Reindeer
With Baby Reindeer, Gadd turned a vulnerable, radically confessional story about surviving sexual abuse into the year's most unlikely TV hit. That, it turns out, was the easy part.
Hayley Campbell, GQ, 4th November 2024
Eric Idle talks finding love and cheating death
Always Look on the Bright Side of Life has become the most-played song at UK funerals. The crew of the sinking HMS Sheffield sang it during the Falklands War and by Eric himself at the closing ceremony for the London Olympics, dressed as a human cannonball and surrounded by bhangra dancers, skating nuns and high-kicking Roman centurions. He is not sure what song he would like played at his own funeral, but he hopes there will be fireworks and humour.
Samantha Trenoweth, Australian Women's Weekly, 4th November 2024

Dave Golder, Radio Times, 4th November 2024

Edy Hurst's Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Himself review
This is a solid, absurd show that will leave you smiling throughout and is a good showcase for Hurst's unique comedic brain and talent.
Matthew Forrest, The Reviews Hub, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
There's a ton of padding in Dougal Wilson's disappointing threequel.
William Bibbiani, The Wrap, 4th November 2024
Paddington In Peru review
Olivia Colman in a charming-enough threequel that struggles to live up to its predecessors.
