Unfortunately, we’ve had to cancel tonight’s outdoor screening of Paddington 2 at the TU/e campus due to the rainy weather forecast. We don’t want your evening to be all about umbrellas and soggy popcorn—so we’ll save the big screen and the marmalade for another time.
We hope to welcome you at a future edition, hopefully under a clear, starry sky!
Genre: live action animation, adventure, comedy
Language: English, subtitles: Dutch
Duration: 1h 43m
Settled in with the Brown family, Paddington the bear is a popular member of the community who spreads joy and marmalade wherever he goes. One fine day, he spots a pop-up book in an antique shop -- the perfect present for his beloved aunt's 100th birthday. When a thief steals the prized book, Paddington embarks on an epic quest to unmask the culprit before Aunt Lucy's big celebration.
Reviews
“Paddington 2 surprised the hell out of me, and this is coming from somebody who loved the first. This is a sequel that doesn't disappoint.” Chris Stuckmann
“It has one out-loud laugh, plenty of sincere cleverness, vast technical ingenuity, a warm heart, lively performances and enough gyroscopic camera moves to make Max Ophüls jealous.” The New Yorker
“''Paddington 2" is "The Godfather Part II" of Peruvian bear movies, a sequel that surpasses the superb original.” Wall Street Journal
