Despite being on the search of a plot through most of the movie. This third film still has plenty of charm. Mostly due to Paddington himself.

Better (far better) than the 1st. Not quite as good as the 2nd, but not too far off (but the 2nd was not quite as flawless as some would like to claim either.)

Paddington in Peru is the weakest entry in the Paddington movies. Not terrible or anything like that. It's just alright. It's still an enjoyable and adorable film with a unique visual style. I cared for the characters, especially Paddington and the Brown family. I like them all. It's got a very sweetheart. But Paul King not coming back was a big mistake, as no offense to Dougal Wilson (he did a decent job), but King brought something special to these movies. And taking Paddington out of London was another mistake. It may be in execution that it could work, but I found myself less engaged in the story as soon as he left London, which is the whole film. I know that Paddy exploring his origin and returning to his roots in Peru could make for a great adventure, but it all boils down to better execution. Who knows, this might grow on me over the years, but as it is, it's perfectly fine.

We went into this film thinking it wouldn’t be as good as the other two Paddington movies, especially since the reviews weren’t as strong. However, my son and I ended up really enjoying it. The story was warm and heartfelt, with Paddington’s charm still shining through. The film had plenty of funny moments, but also some touching scenes that caught me off guard. By the end, I even shed a tear. While it wasn’t quite as perfect as the first two films, it was still a lovely watch. I’m really glad we gave it a chance. It’s definitely worth seeing for anyone who loves Paddington and his adventures.
