Paddington

 @Peter Peterson - your request has been heard and actioned!  We sat down this Friday to watch Paddington; this time as a whole family.  Number 2 kid (nearly 4) is much younger than number 1 so she doesn't usually join us for movie night.  This time we made an exception because we'd heard there was nothing in Paddington to worry about and plenty of visual gags to keep her attention.  It turned out to be a good decision because she watched it several times in the days after that night and loved it every time.

Rating: Paddington works on a few levels.  Plenty of visual gags and crazy situations for the younger ones, some suspense for the older ones and some wise cracking dialogue for the adults.  I loved the banter between the husband and wife.

Naughty bits:  Paddington is as clean as Millicent's lab coat and suitable for all ages.  I'm gonna give the one incidence of drunkedness a pass.

Snacks:  Marmalade on toast
