I saw the other films, they are so much fun. I am looking forward to this movie, it looks good like the others. My friend and I often attend children's movies, they are good stress releasers.

This is a cute 5-7-9 poem. It tells a story just in those three lines. I think everyone loves Paddington.

Great job an good luck in your contest.

I have to say that both your title and your description are misleading. Confusingly, Paddington doesn't return to Peru and certainly the first two lines are rather sad, not exactly full of joy!

That being said, the words of the poem stand on their own, basically an ultra-brief summary of the original much-loved Paddington story. I've docked a star because you haven't really given us anything original here, no extra spark or twist to present a new view of the lovable bear.

    Hi Steve
    Thank for your review. I am not sure if you have seen the latest Paddington film then below is a quick synopsis:

    Paddington 3, titled "Paddington in Peru," takes our beloved bear on a journey back to his homeland. He discovers a secret about his family history and embarks on a quest to Peru, where he encounters new characters and faces exciting challenges. He also learns more about his own identity and the importance of family. The film is full of heartwarming moments, humor, and adventure, making it a perfect family film.

    As you will this lovable did return to Peru, I never suggested that he stayed there.
    Thus the title of my poem is quite accurate.
    Take care

    I understand, but nothing in the actual words of your poem even mentions Peru and I don't think you said anything about the new film. Perhaps I missed that in your notes...

    Ah, yes, I see you mention the film in your notes, but not in the text of the poem. That's why I found it confusing.
