Paddington in Peru (2024)
Country: GB/FR/JAP/US
Technical: col/2.35:1 106m
Director: Dougal Wilson
Cast: Hugh Bonneville, Emily Mortimer, Ben Whishaw (voice of Paddington), Olivia Colman, Antonio Banderas
Synopsis:
Paddington receives a distress call from Aunt Lucy and off the Brown family goes to cheer her up. First, however, she must be found, which means reckoning with the machinations of an acquisitive nun and a riverboat captain with a personality disorder.
Review:
The third Paddington outing is at least still tolerably British, but the characterisations do not quite have the zing of the second, with its Andersonian/Ealing notes. Stumbling on El Dorado seems a sine qua non, but somebody forgot to order any Indians, which was an opportunity missed.
