Paddington in Peru Receives Mixed Reviews

Paddington in Peru has debuted with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 95%, making it the lowest-rated entry in the beloved Paddington trilogy, following the near-perfect scores of its predecessors. Despite this, the film, which sees Paddington and the Brown family on an adventure in Peru, has received mixed reviews, with some critics noting it lacks the charm of earlier films due to the absence of original director Paul King. New cast members, including Olivia Colman and Antonio Banderas, are highlighted for their performances, with Colman particularly praised for her role as a singing nun. While initial reactions suggest the film starts slowly, many agree it eventually captures the heartwarming essence fans expect from a Paddington movie. The film's adventure begins when Paddington travels to Peru to visit Aunt Lucy, leading to an unexpected quest in the Amazon rainforest. Overall, critics describe Paddington in Peru as a delightful, if slightly lesser, addition to the franchise, appealing to families and fans alike.
