Paddington 2, the sequel to the 2015 movie about the fictional¹ beloved British bear, has beaten out Toy Story 2 as the best-reviewed film of all time on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie, which premiered in the US last weekend, earned 165 positive reviews and counting without receiving a single negative review. Toy Story 2 previously² held the record with 163 straight “Fresh” reviews and remarkably³, no “Rotten” reviews, after nearly 20 years. Like the 1999 Pixar predecessor⁴, Paddington 2 is one of the rare sequels that outshines its original.

《帕丁顿熊2》打败《玩具总动员2》，成为烂番茄网站评价最高的影片。该片是2015年《帕丁顿熊》的续集，这部影片讲述了一只人见人爱的小熊在英国的经历。《帕丁顿熊2》上周在美国首映，得到了165个好评，而没有收到一个差评。此前这一纪录的保持者是《玩具总动员2》，收到了163个“鲜”评，没有一个“烂”评。这一纪录保持了近20年。就像1999年皮克斯发布的《玩具总动员2》一样，《帕丁顿熊2》也是少见的续集比原作更胜一筹的作品。

Only four movies hold a perfect score with over 100 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes at the moment, and Paddington 2 has the most reviews of all of them, Rotten Tomatoes said.

据烂番茄网站介绍，目前网站上只有四部电影收到了超过100个“新鲜”评价，其中《帕丁顿熊2》得到的“新鲜”评价最多。

Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-worthy coming-of-age masterpiece Lady Bird held the record briefly⁵ in 2017, but lost it when—after 196 Fresh reviews—it received a single Rotten one.

格蕾塔•葛韦格执导的《伯德小姐》曾在2017年短暂登顶烂番茄好评排行榜。最初这部影片收到了196个“新鲜”评价，但不幸的是随后收到一个“腐烂”评价，痛失第一把交椅。这部成长纪事杰作有奥斯卡水准。

目前这部影片在烂番茄网站已收到213个“新鲜”评价。

That’s how easy it is to ruin a perfect run on Rotten Tomatoes. All it takes is a contrarian critic or, in Lady Bird’s case, a reviewer who had a mixed reaction and didn’t think the movie deserved to rank among the best films of all time.

所以要想在烂番茄保持完美的零差评纪录太不容易了，只要有一个影评人持不同意见就前功尽弃。在《伯德小姐》这个例子中，有位影评人意见不一，不认为这部影片应该排在史上最佳影片之列。

Despite the acclaim⁶, Paddington 2 hasn’t broken any box-office records. It opened with $11 million in the North America last weekend, and was only the 7th highest grossing movie in the market that weekend. That’s less than the nearly $19 million Paddington opened with in 2015, and the $57 million Toy Story 2 opened with when it went wide in 1999, based on Box Office Mojo data.

尽管口碑爆棚，《帕丁顿熊2》却还没有打破任何票房纪录。影片上周末在北美票房为1100万美元，在周末票房榜上仅居第七。根据Mojo票房统计网站的数据，这比2015年第一部影片上映时的1900万美元票房要少得多。1999年《玩具总动员2》上映时票房达到5700万美元。

一起来看看烂番茄网站的影评人是如何评价的：

There are slapstick hijinks and silly scenarios⁷ aplenty, but at its heart Paddington 2 has something serious to say about making the world a better place through daily acts of kindness. – Barbara VanDeburgh, Arizona Republic

剧中有狂欢打闹也有很多没头脑的情节，但从本质来说，《帕丁顿熊2》告诉了我们，通过每日善举我们就能让世界更加美好。 --芭芭拉•范德伯格《亚利桑那共和报》

This is a film of such open-hearted joy and grace, which feels rare in an industry that often embraces cynicism and sarcasm⁸, including in its children’s stories. – David Sims, The Atlantic

影片让人开怀大笑，极富魅力，在如今即便是儿童片也充斥着冷嘲热讽的电影行业堪称一股清流。 --大卫•西姆斯《大西洋月刊》

Paddington 2 is The Godfather Part II of Peruvian bear movies, a sequel that surpasses the superb original. – Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

《帕丁顿熊2》超越了已经非常卓越的第一部，就像《教父2》那样。--乔•摩根斯登《华尔街日报》

休•格兰特在影片中的表现也饱受好评：

Could it be that Hugh Grant was born to play a villainous dandy in a kid’s movie? – Stephanie Merry, Washington Post

难道休•格兰特生来就是要在一部儿童片中扮演坏叔叔的吗？--斯蒂芬妮•玛丽《华盛顿邮报》

The sequel has the same tone as the original but is livelier and funnier, mostly due to Hugh Grant, who gleams as the bad guy. – Jody Mitori, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

这部续集和第一部基调一致，但更活泼有趣，这主要是休•格兰特的功劳，他把坏人演活了。--乔迪•米特里《圣路易斯邮报》

While we wish this beary prestigious⁹ honor could last forever, it is likely it'll only be a matter of time before Paddington 2 follows the same pattern as Lady Bird. But, regardless, Paddington 2 will always be the best reviewed film... of our hearts.

尽管我们希望《帕丁顿熊2》能一直占据首位，但很可能将重蹈《伯德小姐》的覆辙，只是时间早晚而已。但无论如何，《帕丁顿熊2》在我们心中将永远是一部佳作。
