loading . . . Paddington (2014) â Review Tweeness is an underrated virtue. OK, sure, when that hand is overplayed in any film, let alone a family film, it can be overwhelming and off-puttingly disingenuous. And yet, if you get the levels right, it can be a powerful force that helps you forget that your world may be going to Hell in a handbasket for a few hours as it leaves you feeling toasty and safe. Plenty of films over the last couple of decades that have set themselves in England has locked into the whole cozy, tea and crumpets fantasy world, with the early Harry Potter entries, the Narina films and virtually everything Aardman has ever done leaning heavily on dry, British wit and lovable eccentrics. http://wevegotbackissues.com/2025/12/23/paddington-2014-review/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
