For me, this is how 'children' movies should be, the entertainment value shouldn't be dumbed down and contain obnoxious screaming for humour, but something for the whole family to get something from. 😄
Both Paddington films are in the upper echelon of children’s films. Just first class entertainment and surprisingly emotional. Not ashamed to admit I cried at the end of the second
@@shurik121 I love the good-naturedness, I love that they do not take it for granted and fully commit to it. I love that this or the sequel are not cynical.
@@Bjjbhcoa86 I love the sequel even more. It's everything that's good about the first movie, but even better. Hugh Grant gives one of the best performances in his entire career.
Fun Fact: When Paddington witnesses downtown London for the first time in the backseat of the Cab, there is a gentleman sitting at the outdoor table, giving a warm welcome to Paddington. He is Michael Bond, the creator/author of the 'Paddington Bear'.
You're spot on with the immigration thing, Brandon. The inspiration for the books, I believe, was child "evacuees" during ww2. They would send children from the cities that would be in danger of being bombed, out to the country to live with families there. The way Paddington arrives in London with a little tag on him is evocative of the way the children arrived in the countryside by train, with tags on their coats with their names and details on them.
And of course, there were refugees from many other countries following ww2, that looked to Britain for a home who would face similar cultural challenges to Paddington.
I got a bit emotional with the immigrant story parallels. You empathise with every person in history who took an "English" name over their own, the sheer bravery of being alone away from family in a new country, being desperately kind, humble and polite when you just wanted to curl up and cry from the whole overwhelming experience. There was so much subtle yet relatable nuance in this movie. 😭 I agree with other reviewers, this movie should not have been so good and so thoughtful. Easily one of the best "kids" movies of the decade.
In 2018 I was in London on holiday, and while on the train I overheard this group of teenage boys talking about how great Paddington is. These young guys, at the point in life where being tough and cool is everything, were unashamed of their love for this delightful kids movie! I think that's awesome. And it made me realise this movie must be worth checking out.
Paddington is something of a national institution here in the UK. Many of us grew up reading Michael Bond's books and watching the old animated TV show. And these two films are just perfect. Funny, imaginative, heartwarming and utterly delightful from start to finish.
Paddington has always been a bastion for the immigrant experience to me. I´ve been a British immigrant in Peru and he´s a Peruvian Immigrant in Britain. For that reason I am getting him as a tattoo this year.
I grew up on the Paddington books and the BBC stop-motion cartoon, but I didn't see this in theaters because the trailers were SO HORRIBLE............fortunately, I finally checked both out and was very pleasantly surprised how well they kept the original stories intact, while finding fun ways to update the characters.
Completely agree. I avoided it for exactly the same reason. I was about to compare the trailer with what I imagine the Peter Rabbit films to be, but hey, maybe those trailers are equally bad and those films are great too! 🙂 (I don't get that impression from the reviews)
@@BrandonLikesMovies , you should watch Jojo Rabbit. Written and Directed by Taika Waititi. He did What We Do in the Shadows (the film). It's one of my all time favorite films (top 10). You should check that one out.
Brandon.... This was a sincere treat to watch again. I absolutely loved Paddington the first time I watched this when it was released... still do! I enjoyed your reactions to Paddington so much... your reactions and comments just added to how much there is to Love about this movie . For me this movie pushed boundaries in movies I usually do not see and it would be a better world if every good home had a Paddington . Thank you so much Brandon . I look forward to many more reactions here .
My 3-year-old was watching this movie constantly a couple years back and so I saw it many times over, but somehow I never got tired of it. Such a clever and entertaining film. It was cool to see its greatness gradually dawning on you over the course of the video! Looking forward to your Paddington 2 reaction! It’s just as good as this one.
I heard this movie is great so many times, and after you posted this, it just reminded me once again to watch it. Finally, I watched the movie, and it's even better than I thought! Very wholesome, the humor is on point, even has good character arcs, amazing movie :)
The 'Wes Anderson' dolls house at the end is fantastic! Yes Paddington 2 is even better! Sally Hawkins seems to have water scenes as a rider when she signs up for a role - Paddington 2 too... Jim Broadbent (Mr Gruber) was also the villainous Frank Butterman from Hot Fuzz. The guard (Stop that sexy woman) was Simon Farnaby goes on to write Paddington 2.
I watched this in the cinema it is a brilliant film, everyone gasped when Paddington fell down the shaft (the mission impossible scene), Also the film is based on a series of children's books from the 1960's which were turned into an animated series in the 1970's and 80's which i watched when i was young. i am so glad you enjoyed it, and i know you will love the sequel as well.
25:07 Came back here to comment that this scene takes on whole new meaning now. The Queen celebrated her Platinum Jubilee the other day to mark the 70th anniversary of her being made Queen of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth Nations, and during the televised celebrations, there was a short film made of Paddington in Buckingham Palace having tea with the Queen. It’s just all come neatly full circle!
I'm so happy you loved Paddington, it's one of my favourite films. When you watch Paddington 2 make sure you watch the song and dance number with the amazing Hugh Grant right at the end of the credits, it's possibly my favourite bit of the film😁👍
I am certain I wasn't the only British person around my age who got needlessly giddy when I saw the guy in the archives who took an interested in Mr Brown in the dress. He's one of the leads in a show called Horrible Histories, one of the best and most well beloved British kids shows ever made.
Absolute delight of a film! 2nd one is a worth while sequel too. Plus this film really puts me in a good mood, nice to see London represented in such a charming colourful way with the band and the random interactions through it's streets.
Fun Fact: The director for this movie and its sequel was the director of the British comedy "The Mighty Boosh" which was shown on Adult Swim in the late 2000's. Such a glow up
Mr Gruber was well versed in magical adventures, he was Professor Kirke in the Chronicles of Narnia. Include the Twelfth Doctor and adorable clever bear that shares marmalade sandwiches with the Queen, the formula for a most perfect adventure.
I was excited to see this in theaters and loved it when I did, then I was super hyped for Paddington 2 and saw that in theaters and made a video titled The Best Movie in Cinematic History: Paddington 2. I super love the Paddington movies.
Fun fact: when Mrs brown talked to Paddington the text that was above paddington was "Found" to complete the text already there, which is "Lost and" and when connected it's "lost and found" which tells us that the Browns is his home and not going to the "authorities", it also says he was once lost and now found from the blessed Browns
I know I play too much Elder Scrolls Online when I hear Michael Gambon speak, out of everything he's been in, I only hear him as the Prophet saying "Vestige" Lmao.
Other comedy movies with groups of singers throughout the film are 1998 "There's Something About Mary" and 1965 "Cat Ballou" had Nat King Cole as one of the singers.
I'm glad you checked out Paddington. I think it and it's sequel are loaded with charm. Just terrific family movies with some great British style comedy. Brendan Gleeson may be my favorite part of Paddington 2. You'll see.
I don't know if this is a thing in the US but in England people put flowers on lamposts involved in fatal traffic accidents so Mr Curry (Capaldi) giving the flowers to Nicole Kidman is not only cheap but the worst kind of flowers to give, like grave flowers or something
Ohh my god Brandon, totally unrelated to the movie reaction (which was enjoyable and great as always by the way) but your background looks so awesome!! 😍 Like straight out of a fairytale.
25:08 This whole scene when I was a child, let me to believe that the royal guard we actually nice and then they just crush my beliefs when the second guard came up in the change if shifts 😂
The author, on the first book (1958) "It wasn’t written specifically for children, but I think I put into it the kind things I liked reading about when I was young." The books already felt old when I read them or had them read to me in the 70's, these movies really manage to revitalize the charm. The uninspired flooding tub scene is about the only flaw, I think. In the sequel, a certain actor is surprisingly good.
I just rewatched the first 5 minutes from 1975 - that music! I could sing every note, and every beat without even thinking! [I was only 3 years old then, but that music would be played every day after school well into the 1980s .. that gentle 1920s dancehall music]
You’re probably gonna be told this but Paddington is a beloved children’s character originally from children’s books, then later adapted into a classic children’s tv series in the 70’s,
This movie really impressed me when i 1st watched it has so many great elements there from the combination of upscaled animation, acting directing, color scheme, humour and plot not an easy combination to achieve.
wow - the screenplay, and the story were done by the director himself! (Paul King) That's creative freedom - and when you have a talented individual that's capable of doing it, it ALWAYS works! This is a children's movie from the UK ... but millions of UK people my age would always get to see Paddington for 5 minutes when we got home from school decades ago But you, who have no experience of Paddington at all liked this movie - and it's not surprising Here's the first 5 minutes ever of Paddington from 1975 - I've just realised that they used standard drawings animation for all of the other characters, except for Paddington, who is a stop-motion puppet ... brilliant! I never even thought about that when I was a kid. So, I now have even more respect for the movie, where Paddington is the only animated character in an otherwise realistic setting - I think that choice was deliberate by the director, mirroring the original show ... ruclips.net/video/epOwMn04BAs/видео.html
Evil lady = nicole Kidman, taxi driver = Matt Lucas, aunt = julie Walters, professor guy= jim broadbent, theif = matt king and lots of other British talent like kayvan Novak. Not seen this movie but it looks ok. Great cast. I live near London and am a brit so I should watch this
Man, I seriously need to strengthen my memory... Cause I know I saw this movie (and the second one) in theatre. I know I liked it. But I barely remember anything beside the toothbrushes thingy, the shot when the family found a name for the bear, and the Mission Impossible theme song moment.
@@BrandonLikesMovies Thank goodness! I’m a Patreon so I know you did the sequel, so I won’t bother recommending that, but I definitely recommend you give some more of our films a watch. I think what separates our British films from straight out Hollywood movies, is we aim to be as big and as enjoyable as Hollywood, but we make them with British sensibility, and down-to-earth-ness, if that’s the right term lol Perhaps nearer Halloween you could add some British horror films to the schedule, there’s so many we’ve done, loads of independently made overlooked gems, and only some are well known, like Dog Soldiers (which I think you’d love).
I found a great comedy. I'd forgotten all about THIS one, until I saw 2 other reaction videos the other day. 'Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story' (2004 )...starring Vince Vaughn & Ben Stiller along with a slew of other cameos.
The Paddington movies are great. I love them. I read the books when I was young. It is good to have a marmalade sandwich when watching these movies. That is what he is famous for eating.
Thank you for reacting to this movie. I haven't seen it in a long time and just remembered how much I loved it. Great family movie for everybody. A movie I recommend (not kid friendly), if you haven't seen it, is the action movie "The Jackal" (1997) with Bruce Willis, Richard Gere, and Sidney Poitier.
How great. This wasn't a Wes Anderson film, but sure felt like it. BUT! He's done animation and, of course they are amazing: add Fantastic Mr. Fox and the incredible Isle of Dogs to your list.
Man i didn't know Nicole Kidman is in this movie ,she is amazing , one of my favorite actresses along with Naomi Watts, Amy Adams, Emily Blunt and Scarlett Johansson.
For me, this is how 'children' movies should be, the entertainment value shouldn't be dumbed down and contain obnoxious screaming for humour, but something for the whole family to get something from. 😄
100% agreed
Fantastic Mr Fox does it as well and the Wallace and grommit short films
@@Blitz-dm3kv Why are you being so pedantic? my point still valid.
Both Paddington films are in the upper echelon of children’s films. Just first class entertainment and surprisingly emotional. Not ashamed to admit I cried at the end of the second
I enjoyed both a lot, at the young age of 40. These are just good-natured feel-good movies.
@@shurik121 I love the good-naturedness, I love that they do not take it for granted and fully commit to it. I love that this or the sequel are not cynical.
@@Bjjbhcoa86 I love the sequel even more. It's everything that's good about the first movie, but even better. Hugh Grant gives one of the best performances in his entire career.
His name is really named not paddington
He died in a earthquake

Yes. I like that part. Sad that he died but I live close to his grave and visit it sometimes
I wondered about that. Its a wonderful way to immortalize the Creator's memory in the movies.

@@maul8384 what’s wrong with that comment? I agree. It’s rare for sequels to be better!

I loved his cameo in the film. It's always so heartwarming to see an artist alive to see the fruits of their work.
I honestly though people were joking about this movie being good but watching it myself, it was a great time.
I feel like that's the common experience with these films haha
Paddington has always been a bastion for the immigrant experience to me. I´ve been a British immigrant in Peru and he´s a Peruvian Immigrant in Britain. For that reason I am getting him as a tattoo this year.
I was impressed how quickly you spotted Slughorn, Mrs Bird is actually Mrs Weasley as well
This!
Aunt Lucy and the uncle (the two older bears at the start) are Umbridge and Dumbledore as well!
I grew up on the Paddington books and the BBC stop-motion cartoon, but I didn't see this in theaters because the trailers were SO HORRIBLE............fortunately, I finally checked both out and was very pleasantly surprised how well they kept the original stories intact, while finding fun ways to update the characters.

@@stevebills5716 Yeah, I've not seen those films for the very same reasons.

You should definitely react to “Fantastic Mr. Fox.”
Both films were a pleasant and beautiful surprise. Greetings from Peru.
remember when this first came out it was such a big surprise just out of the blue a fantastic family movie nobody expected, what a gem :)
I heard this movie is great so many times, and after you posted this, it just reminded me once again to watch it. Finally, I watched the movie, and it's even better than I thought! Very wholesome, the humor is on point, even has good character arcs, amazing movie :)
Have never seen the first one but _Paddington 2_ is legitimately one of the Top 10 best films of the past decade. Strange but true.
I can't wait for the Spaced reaction coming soon!
Brandon's doing Spaced!? That is fantastic news.
The 'Wes Anderson' dolls house at the end is fantastic! Yes Paddington 2 is even better! Sally Hawkins seems to have water scenes as a rider when she signs up for a role - Paddington 2 too...

Both of these movies are flat out wonderful. You can just feel the amount of love that went into every character and scene.
It should be the norm for all films but sadly it isn’t.

Why did I forget how much I love this movie
I love how many famous British actors are in this (Little Britain, doctor who, horrible histories)
I am certain I wasn't the only British person around my age who got needlessly giddy when I saw the guy in the archives who took an interested in Mr Brown in the dress. He's one of the leads in a show called Horrible Histories, one of the best and most well beloved British kids shows ever made.
30:21 That’s Colin Firth’s original voice to Paddington.
I thought it sounded different! Very different Paddington vibe for sure!
Is it really? I wonder why they left that in? But the rest of the line is Ben Whishaw, no?
this movie was made with love and you can tell that
Absolute delight of a film! 2nd one is a worth while sequel too.
Plus this film really puts me in a good mood, nice to see London represented in such a charming colourful way with the band and the random interactions through it's streets.
This is some wholesome content, right here. Great reaction too.

I smiled for 35 minutes and 33 seconds 😃. Awesome reaction of an awesome movie! Keep it up Brandon!
"Stop that sexy woman!" is an actor/comedian/writer named Simon Farnaby, who also co-wrote Paddington 2.
this and the sequel are just incredible, two of my favorites of recent years
" Every Tony I heard of usually seems to be a pretty good guy". When he said that my 1st thought was Tony Montoya off of scarface
Paddington 2 is not just one the best family films of the decade, but one of the best FILMS of the decade. Period.
I'm British and Paddington is a national icon for us. He's basically Britain's version of Clifford the Big Red Dog
I love both Paddington films. I always enjoy Ben Whishaw performances and his voice is so good for Paddington.
This movie is a shining example of what (especially kids) movies should be. Not endless 'superheros'.
Mr Gruber was well versed in magical adventures, he was Professor Kirke in the Chronicles of Narnia. Include the Twelfth Doctor and adorable clever bear that shares marmalade sandwiches with the Queen, the formula for a most perfect adventure.
I was excited to see this in theaters and loved it when I did, then I was super hyped for Paddington 2 and saw that in theaters and made a video titled The Best Movie in Cinematic History: Paddington 2. I super love the Paddington movies.
Dumbledore, Mrs. Weasly, Slughorn, And That Witch Umbridge Are All In This Movie.
Along With Nicole Kidman And Dr. Who
Yep, this is a great movie. I grew up with Paddington on TV. But the second one is even better. Hard to believe, but it is.
Man now I can't wait to see your reaction to the 2nd one
Can't wait to share it!
It's one of those family films that's actually great, they did an awesome job, great cast and well written and directed
Agreed!
Fun fact: when Mrs brown talked to Paddington the text that was above paddington was "Found" to complete the text already there, which is "Lost and" and when connected it's "lost and found" which tells us that the Browns is his home and not going to the "authorities", it also says he was once lost and now found from the blessed Browns
He literally points that out in the video
“Yo, shout out to Vin Diesel!” 😂😂😂
i used to love this show as a kid. I was happy to see them bring it to the big screen
I love how this has a Wes Anderson aesthetic, but instead has a lot of heart. So good
I know I play too much Elder Scrolls Online when I hear Michael Gambon speak, out of everything he's been in, I only hear him as the Prophet saying "Vestige" Lmao.

Paddington 2 is almost as good as the dark knight in terms of step ups from the first movie
You would recognize Sally Hawkins from best picture winner 'The Shape of Water'
You’re probably gonna be told this but Paddington is a beloved children’s character originally from children’s books, then later adapted into a classic children’s tv series in the 70’s,
this is one of the great surprises for me!
Yes, the second one is even better and by a good margin :D. You will love it man!

31:49 Possible Fast & Furious and Paddington crossover?

That cabbie was in Doctor Who and of course Peter Capaldi WAS Doctor Who for a time.
Both of these movies are well written and well done very good films.
paddington 2 is the best movie in cinematic history
Evil lady = nicole Kidman, taxi driver = Matt Lucas, aunt = julie Walters, professor guy= jim broadbent, theif = matt king and lots of other British talent like kayvan Novak.
Not seen this movie but it looks ok. Great cast. I live near London and am a brit so I should watch this
Kayvan Novak? Lies! That's Nandor in disguise!
I love this film so much! And Paddington 2! Just amazing. Looking forward to Paddington 3, I've heard that they plan to start filming it next year.
Paddington and especially the sequel reminded me a lot of the grand Budapest hotel and now I know why

I never noticed the poster that says Virginia Woolf at 16:19, for Nicole has played Woolf in The Hours (2002)
This is such a good film and unbelievably the sequel is even better
I haven't seen these films in ages I forgot the same actor does the new(ish) TV show voice too (also delightful)
Now I need to watch both movies so I can watch your reactions lol
Hope you enjoy 😁
brandon: i recognize that voice, its that the guy from harry potter?
me: i recognize that antiques store, is it the one in Portobello road?
So funny. this is one of those movies I just saw by accident then i was hooked haha.
Glad this made me take a revisit to Paddington, completely forgot the utter Chad from horrible histories was in this haha
PADDINGTON 2 is literally the greatest movie on earth so I eagerly await that reaction
Brilliant, finally a Paddington reaction. Excellent movies so well done
It's great that famous British character actor Horace Slughorn could be a part of this movie.
Such a great family film, and I don’t usually watch family films.
Got me into reading the books, they’re pretty good too.
They actually already released the claim while it was unlisted 🙂

How great. This wasn't a Wes Anderson film, but sure felt like it. BUT! He's done animation and, of course they are amazing: add Fantastic Mr. Fox and the incredible Isle of Dogs to your list.
Ahhhhhh such a great movie, can't wait for your reaction to the 2nd one.
Man i didn't know Nicole Kidman is in this movie ,she is amazing , one of my favorite actresses along with Naomi Watts, Amy Adams, Emily Blunt and Scarlett Johansson.
