The Popcorn Pundits - Week 55: Paddington in Peru - A Heartfelt Adventure Back Home
Welcome to Week 55 of The Popcorn Pundits! 🍿 This week, we’re thrilled to journey with everyone’s favourite bear in Paddington in Peru, a heartwarming adventure that takes Paddington back to his roots in the Peruvian jungle. Will the film recapture the magic, humour, and warmth that have endeared Paddington to audiences around the world? Peter, Nikky, and James are here to explore it all!
In Paddington in Peru, we find our bear friend happily settled with the Browns when he receives concerning news from the Mother Superior (voiced by Olivia Colman) about his beloved Aunt Lucy. Seeing Aunt Lucy losing her grip on reality, Mary Brown (Emily Mortimer) proposes a family trip to Peru, hoping to help Paddington reconnect and rediscover his heritage. Joined by the charismatic Captain Cabot (Antonio Banderas) and his daughter Gina (Cala Tous), the Browns set off on a riverboat adventure through the jungle.
But when they arrive, Aunt Lucy has mysteriously vanished! What follows is a comedic yet heartfelt romp with slapstick humor, quirky characters, and even whispers of El Dorado as they navigate thrilling twists and charming mishaps. Will they find Aunt Lucy, or perhaps discover something even more magical along the way?
