Netflix movie of the day: Paddington is a charming animation with 97% on Rotten Tomatoes


The world’s favorite marmalade-loving Paddington Bear is as adorable as ever in the critically acclaimed 2014 film adaptation, Paddington. When Paddington’s (Ben Whishaw) home in Peru is destroyed by an earthquake, the duffel-coat wearing bear heads to London and is picked up by the Brown family. Amongst his innocent mischief and chaotic escapades, a touching friendship is born while vengeful taxidermist Millicent (Nicole Kidman) is hellbent on stealing and stuffing Paddington.

The pressure was on for director Paul King when he decided to take on the challenge of creating a CGI reboot of one of the most iconic children’s book characters, a task that is often met with trepidation by the public. But King certainly captures the timeless charm of the beloved literary bear in this perfect family-friendly flick, which you should watch on Netflix if you haven’t already.
