Peter Rabbit, a mischievous young bunny, lives in the countryside with his three sisters and cousin Benjamin. They regularly sneak into Mr. McGregor’s garden to steal vegetables. But when the old Mr. McGregor dies, Peter thinks the garden is finally his.

Enter Thomas McGregor (Domhnall Gleeson), a neurotic city man who inherits the property. He wages war with Peter and his animal friends over control of the garden — and the affection of Bea (Rose Byrne), a kind-hearted woman who loves animals and lives nearby.

What follows is a battle of wits and pranks between Peter and Thomas that escalates hilariously — until both sides are forced to learn lessons about love, kindness, and letting go.

Peter Rabbit (2018) is a playful, modern family comedy that updates the classic character with energy and mischief. While it may stray far from its literary roots and veer into chaotic territory, it still delivers heart and fun for younger audiences.
