Paddington, 2014, directed by young director Paul King, for whom it was his second feature film. Somehow I passed both books and cartoons about this funny bear, so I watched without any preliminary information about the plot. A small bear comes from Peru to London in the hope of finding a home, as well as the traveler with whom it all began many years ago. He traveled around the country with the task of bringing some exotic animal for a museum stuffed animal, and instead befriended local bears there, taught them English and brewed marmalade, and invited them to London, where they would be hotly welcomed. Uncle and aunt brought up their little nephew in this spirit, and after the terrible earthquake, the aunt sends her nephew to London. But everything was not so simple, acquaintance with civilization and people was not without complications, although it ended well after all the funny and sometimes dangerous adventures. The film is very good, the animators made a very good computer bear with smart eyes in a red hat inherited from a traveler, and is designed for any audience - one thing will be clear for children, and adults will see many allusions, quotes from some "adult" films and even satire. Artists also play well-known - Hugh Bonneville and Sally Hawkins play parents, Nicole Kidman plays a real bitch - the heiress of the traveler, who is offended by her father, this role is very suitable for her, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi and Julie Walters are in the supporting roles. I liked the film, the story turned out to be funny, moderately instructive and kind.
