Paddington, 3 Stars

This is a wonderful movie, suitable for almost all ages (likely 5 and up). I wrestled with the rating but decided to go a little on the high side because:

• the bear is great;
• Sally Hawkins (whom I must have seen but don't recognize any of her other roles) and Hugh Bonneville (Notting Hill) are also delightful;
• Nicole Kidman (Moulin Rouge) is deliciously evil; and,
• I'll likely see it a gazillion more times with grandchildren.

The story moves well, my granddaughter wants to know how they got the bear to move (which I haven't researched), and it's a fun time.
