But everything changes the adventure of Paddington. The feedback of the audience notes the important role of the family in the sense plan of the film.

At the beginning of the movie, Browns do not seem to be exemplary parents. The pope looks like a bore who all the time is afraid of something and does not allow the children anything that represents even a hypothetical danger. Mom, on the contrary, seems unnecessarily liberated and emotional.

Children are also very peculiar. Judy is ashamed of the parents, whom her friends consider a little strange. Jonathan wants to become an astronaut, but his father does not even want to hear about it. Perhaps this would have been the case, but unexpectedly their lives changed Paddington's adventure. Reviews of the film indicate that many viewers have learned in Browns his family.

So who is Paddington Bear, who blew up the lives of ordinary Londoners? He was born in Peru. His parents died when the cub was still very young. Raised a child, Aunt Lucy and Uncle Bushido. But how did it happen that two Peruvian bears have names? They were given to the inhabitants of the jungle by the English traveler Montgomery Clyde. He very much fell in love with Lucy and Bushido and invited them to London. Since then, bears often thought of England and even wanted to go there. Yes, and did not gather.

When did the adventure of Paddington begin? Comments from the audience indicate that it happened on the day when a terrible catastrophe came to the jungle. The earthquake killed Uncle Bushido and destroyed the forest house where the bears lived. The old aunt Lucy sent Paddington to distant London.

His name was received on the first day of his stay in the capital of Great Britain. Mary Brown, who spotted the baby at the railway station, called him Paddington. All the heroes had experienced many incidents before they learned to understand each other and appreciate love.

The most funny episodes in the film

So what is the adventure of Paddington? The viewers saw the trailer for the new film in the autumn of 2014. He introduces us to the story of a small bear and includes the most ridiculous fragments of the film. It should be noted the excellent work of the creators of this spectacle. The first acquaintance of Paddington with the bathroom, which ended in disaster, is shown in the film magnificently. The cub is trying to be very polite. Even after arranging the flood, he upholds the mental health of his masters till the last and protects their calmness.

Courtesy and good manners

In the film, there is another spectacular episode showing the adventure of Paddington. The trailer reproduces this particular fragment. Bear cub first got in the subway, where he immediately fell behind his friends. Paddington is very afraid to step on the escalator. But he knows that Londoners love good manners. Mishka reads the inscriptions on the plates, warning that dogs should be picked up. And then he realizes that for good behavior he just needs a little dog! In the next frame, we see Paddington, proudly stepping on the escalator with a tiny dog in his paws.

Teddy bear is trying very hard to be nice to please your new friends. But when he is accused of lying, he can not accept it. A small animal has the honor and dignity with which his adult acquaintance is to be reckoned.

The Browns in their youth

So begins the adventure of Paddington. What is this movie about? About friendship, loyalty, sincerity. The veil, hiding the family secrets of the Browns, opens slightly when their relative Mrs. Bird tells the children about the past of her parents. Once upon a time, Mary and her husband were cheerful and carefree. Then they had babies. Mr. Brown literally crushed tremendous responsibility. He sold the motorcycle and removed from the house everything that could harm the children, even the flowers. And since then he constantly calculates risks. Mary resigned herself.

Paddington hears Mrs Byrd's story from his attic. And he understands that the main risk is himself. Bear cub can no longer endanger his friends. He goes into the night.

Beautiful villain

There comes a new stage, continuing the adventure of Paddington. The description of the film suggests that there is not a single negative character in it. However, it is not. The main anti-hero is Millicent Clyde, the daughter of the same traveler who once cherished the desire to see the world in the souls of Peruvian bears. When she was little, my father returned to London, where he was immediately expelled from the Royal Geographical Society. Scientists accused him of not bringing a beast to England, as all famous travelers did.

Robert Scott delivered the imperial penguin from Antarctica, and James Cook arrived home with a kangaroo company. Now stuffed animals serve as exhibits in the London Museum of Natural History. But Montgomery Clyde was not an easy man. For some reason he believed that animals can not be killed. Leaving the journey, our hero opened the zoo. But his daughter decided to finish her father's business. A stuffed Peruvian bear should be an exhibit.

Actors and roles

With the advent of Millicent Clyde begins the most dangerous adventure of Paddington. The voice of the film is made by popular American actors: Ben Wishaw and Madeleine Harris. Russian text was read by Alexander Oleshko, Tatyana Shitova and other actors. The film is decorated with beautiful music, emphasizing the cheerful character of the protagonist.

After Paddington left the house, the Browns ran into a problem. They realized that they loved the baby. The whole family rushed to find the cub. And then they found that they could not solve the problem, remaining at the same level as it was created. In order to find the bear and help him, the Browns had to change.

The plot pivot that holds the film together is Paddington's adventure. The movie's genre is a comedy for family viewing. According to numerous reviewers, this film is the best of all, created in this direction in recent years. By the way, "Paddington Adventure" carries information not only for small and adult viewers, but also for professional critics and art critics. Here there is a reference to the film "Mission Impossible: The Phantom Protocol" (2011). Associations with another work include a motion picture in the now fashionable orbit of postmodernism.

Courage and sincerity

Learning that Paddington is in mortal danger, the Browns rushed to save him. Each family member had to overcome his long-standing fear. Judy goes down the drain, thanks to which gets into the building of the museum. Jonathan confesses to his father that he is engaged in dangerous experiments that help eventually penetrate into a locked room from inside. And Mr. Brown himself is forced to walk along a narrow parapet along the wall, every minute at risk of breaking.

Directed by Paul King - a debut in a big movie

Who is a talented person who invented the central event that adorns the film "Paddington Adventure"? Film director - Paul King. In the US, he is known as the creator of the TV series "Maity Bush" and "Fly with me." King made only one feature film "Rabbit and the Ox" (2009). Reviewers writing about these works note his specific English humor and uneasy genre decisions of movies that have an aftertaste of surrealism. It is all the more surprising that the novice director managed to magnificently embody such a touching work as the "Paddington Adventure".

How Bears Look

Separately, it should be noted the visual effects of the film. Computer graphics here at altitude. Its perfection is shown, first of all, by invisibility. Bears look extremely realistic. Lucy, Bushido and Paddington have individual and recognizable faces. Magnificently made facial expression of a small bear. The expression of his face often changes, and the emotions written on it are understandable without words. Suffice it to recall the stern look that the bear throws at Mr. Brown, who suspects the animal of lying.

Who will like the adventures of Paddington? The reviews on ImhoNet are quite contradictory. Some users have noted the excessive rigidity of the film for young children. To some, he seems too boring and insipid for adults. Each viewer chooses his own movie. And caring parents always read reviews about the film before showing it to their child.

Images of the hero and villain

It should be noted the harmonious appearance of Paddington. He does not look like one of the popular bears of literature and cinema. Even before the movie was released, experts criticized the visual decision of the protagonist. Someone claimed that he looked like Winnie the Pooh or Yoga. But the pessimists were disgraced. The image of the little bear turned out to be organic, modest and convincing.

Reviews of the movie "The Adventures of Paddington", as a rule, positive. Funny events that happen with a bear, please adults and small viewers. The cast is impressive. In the film, the British play Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Madeleine Harris, Samuel Jocelin. The decoration of the picture is the Hollywood diva Nicole Kidman. She plays the main villain Millicent Clyde. Many mature beauties of American cinema try themselves in the role of beautiful and terrible women. For example, Angelina Jolie recently played Maleficentu. And Nicole Kidman herself showed her talent as Marisa Colter in the "Golden Compass". In the film "The Adventure of Paddington," the actress is simply fascinating.

Laughter, fun, comedy

Specific English humor manifests itself in those episodes where secondary characters participate. For example, Mrs. Byrd, telling about her sick knee or competing in drinking alcohol with a doorman museum guard. Another comic character in the background is the landlord Mr. Harry, who calls the villain Millicent "a pot of honey" and gives her a bouquet of dried flowers. But still an old man in love can not accept his lady's penchant for killing animals. He talks about her sinister plans for the Browns.

What does Paddington House look like?

It is also necessary to note the excellent work of artists who designed the building, in which most of the events take place. Three-storey apartment Brown is an ideal house, which with all its heart seeks to find a bear cub. In the center of it is a spiral staircase, and the walls are painted with trees.

Each family member has his own room. The abode of Mr. Brown is an office, furnished with comfortable furniture and covered with neutral wallpaper of light colors. Mary's room is painted in scarlet and gold shades. Here she paints her paintings. The premises where children live also reflect their character. Judy's room is covered with photographs. On the walls of Jonathan is depicted a real alien landscape, successfully underlined by hidden lighting. The boy's room is filled with various designs, reminiscent of his passion for technology.

New life in the attic

Bear cub also has its own premises in the house. He gets an attic. First the baby lives in a dark, damp room. When he is taken into the family, the attic is transformed. The small room remains the same dark, but the colorful blanket on the bed and the decorated New Year tree make it cozy, elegant and festive.

When did the audience first see the intriguing adventure of Paddington? The premiere took place in early 2015. Now the merry little bear is always with us. He is able to teach many useful things: appreciate human relationships, cultivate courtesy and good manners, trust friends and not pay attention to gossip and rumors.

Many world and Russian publications devoted their films to the film. Critic Yaroslav Zabaluev calls the film impeccable. Anton Sekisov of the Rossiyskaya Gazeta thinks this movie is cheerful, kind and quality. And Eugene Ukhov in "Empire" calls him soulful and inventive.

Reviewers note the poetic embodiment of London in the film "The Adventure of Paddington." The capital of Great Britain is shown as a city in which dreams come true. A simple film on the plot is decorated with an abundance of original and authentic details, as well as director's finds. An example is the display of the London Museum of Natural History as a Gothic castle.

And what about the Browns? After the end of fun adventures the life of the family changes. Children no longer consider mum unusual, realizing that her strangeness is only spontaneity and the ability to enjoy life.
