Paddington in Peru

"Pleasant kids' fare, but lacks the anarchic sparkle of its instant-classic predecessors."

"There are fewer jokes, moment by moment, but just as much sprightliness, spectacle and fun."

"Everything you want is there but it doesn't reach the lofty standards of Paddington 2."

"The joy isn’t gone from Paddington in Peru. You might just want to adjust expectations."

"Life has changed for Paddington, but thankfully he’s still a very delightful bear."

"Endlessly easy to love with a pitch-perfect Olivia Colman."

"Offers an idea of Britishness that's multifaceted and modern."

"The sweet decency King celebrated in the first two films endures."

"Certainly no disgrace... But (it) is burdened with the unenviable task of following up two near-perfect predecessors."

"It's a decent threequel, though a little of the enchantment has been lost in transit."

"A sequel that is entertaining and endearing, but lacks the originality of its predecessors."

"A very well-executed threequel."

"A lesser Paddington outing remains vastly superior to most G-rated films."

"A decent continuation of the warm-hug vibes that made the first two films so delightful."
