Erbak Movie Reviews: Peter Rabbit (2018)

Erbak Movie Reviews brings a tale of bold bunnies and delightful chaos this week—with a mischievous hero who’s as fearless as he is fluffy.


Trouble Means Fun!

Peter the Rabbit, along with his siblings and his trusty beaver friend, found themselves in trouble far bigger than their tiny paws could handle. But for Peter, trouble was the fun. His favorite pastime? Raiding Mr. McGregor’s garden and swiping his prized fruits and vegetables. It all seemed like harmless fun—except for one fact: Peter’s father had lost his life doing the same. Old Mr. McGregor was ruthless. Catch a rabbit in his garden, and it meant one thing: rabbit stew for dinner.

Bea, the Guardian Angel

Peter’s antics weren’t only about mischief—they were also about survival. With their parents gone, Peter had to both avenge his father and feed his siblings. That meant constantly braving the cranky McGregor’s wrath. But every time danger crept too close, their savior would appear: Bea.

A terrible painter, a gentle soul, and nature’s biggest fan, Bea had abandoned city life for the calm of the countryside. Her heart was full of love for Peter and his animal friends. She was their protector—soft-spoken but strong, a guardian in watercolor-covered clothes.

A Sudden Twist…

On one of his daring raids, Peter was finally caught by old Mr. McGregor. But the real twist came when McGregor’s overworked heart gave out from the excitement and years of unhealthy eating. The old man dropped dead right there in the garden. Peter and his crew? They threw a wild party. The house and garden were turned upside down in celebration—food, dancing, mayhem. It was the party of a lifetime.

Enter: The Young McGregor

What they didn’t expect was a new McGregor. The heir. Thomas McGregor, the grumpy nephew from the city, had never met his uncle. At first, he didn’t want the inheritance. But then he had an idea—sell the house quickly, fund his dream of opening a toy store in London, and move on. Little did he know, the house came with a war. Between him and a battalion of bunnies.

The Carrot Crisis

Peter and his pals couldn't stand two things: injustice… and McGregors. They launched every trick in the book to drive Thomas out. At first, Thomas didn’t care—until he met Bea. Suddenly, the idea of staying didn’t seem so bad. Still, he had to get rid of those unruly rabbits if he ever wanted to live his dream. Or… had his dreams started to shift?

Love & War

As romance bloomed between Bea and Thomas, the battle with Peter grew fierce. The more attention Bea gave Thomas, the more Peter fought back. After all, since their mother’s death, Bea had been the only real affection Peter had ever known. And now that love seemed to be drifting toward someone else. What can a broken-hearted bunny do? In Peter’s case: declare full-on war. Swords were drawn—metaphorically, of course—and no one backed down. But the real casualty? Bea and her tender heart.

A Hopeful Tomorrow

The clash between humans and animals may not have ended for good, but a truce was finally reached. The past couldn’t be undone, but the future? That was still up for grabs.

With grudges set aside and kindness rediscovered, the pieces could finally be put back together. Broken hearts healed. The house rebuilt. And maybe, just maybe, a little understanding grew between worlds.

Erbak Movie Reviews invites you to dive into Peter Rabbit, a story that’s not just about mischief and vegetables—but also about love, loss, and second chances.

We also tip our hats to Beatrix Potter, the beloved creator of Peter, whose imagination continues to hop through generations.

Enjoy the show…
