Chronology

Paddington returns to Peru to visit his beloved Aunt Lucy, who now resides at the Home for Retired Bears. With the Brown family in tow, a thrilling adventure ensues when a mystery plunges them into an unexpected journey..

However, he pitched the idea for this third film and was involved as an executive producer

Featured in Graham Norton and guests: Billy Crystal/Emily Mortimer/Hugh Bonneville/Pharrell Williams/Michael Kiwanuka (2024). 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
