What a delightful film. Growing up, I can’t say I recall having read any of Michael Bond’s A Bear Called Paddington books, but I can’t imagine they’re any less charming than the two films that have been adapted from them.

It is hard to believe that Hugh Grant hasn’t had a film out since 2007’s Music and Lyrics, and that the quintessential British romance heart throb had not yet starred in a romantic comedy with Sarah Jessica Parker.
