Beyond the iconic main character, Paddington 2 features basic every British actor currently living, including Hugh Grant, who slays, Brendan Gleeson, who has never been bad in everything, Sally Hawkins, who Americans will get to know this awards season, and Peter Capaldi, who is an obscene, grumpy, and fucking vital institution. Much of what makes Paddington an easy hero to root for begins with the masterful voice work of Ben Wishaw - best known at the latest Q in the Bond movies - who captures the character’s boundless enthusiasm with a dash of goofy wit. Why? Because he knows the only way the world will improve is if he does everything he can to improve it.Īgain, this should be annoying in practice. He actively chooses to believe in himself and others. He does not assume that life is going to be fair or that the people around him are good. The reason for this is that Paddington, unlike many other beloved characters, is full of hope, but not at all naive. And, hokey as that sounds, it all comes across as totally genuine. In prison, Paddington manages to win over his fellow inmates thanks to his genuine kindness. The plot may sound a bit dark for a kid’s movie, but it’s actually bumptious and joyful thanks to the unceasing optimism of the titular jailbird and excellent art direction. As the Brown family works together to figure out who the real culprit is, Paddington must try to survive the harsh and dangerous world of prison. Paddington is accused of being the thief and sent to jail for a crime he didn’t commit. But, just when he is prepared to purchase the book, it’s mysteriously stolen. The tiny talking bear goes about this by performing a series of odd jobs to earn money. Eager to show his affection for his people, he decides he wants to buy an expensive pop-up book for his Aunt Lucy’s 100th birthday.
The movie begins with Paddington happily sheltered at the bosom of the Brown family.
