Saw this at the weekend and loved it, especially the nods to the original. The music was good and the casting too. Can't wait for the dvd to come out.

Replying to AnnieB...
Why did Mary Poppins allow them all to wander off into danger like that? She didn’t see them. She was on stage. All while she showed off on stage doing some sort of cancan/rap about books? It was a music hall number, nothing like a can can. The ‘rap’ is a patter number, similar to what Bert sang in Jolly Holiday (in that number Mary also let the kids go off and play looking for a merry go round while she and Bert went for tea) Why was it so dark and chaotic? It was a nightmare. ialso felt slightly uncomfortable when she shoved that small boy into the bath. Even in the film his sister was quite concerned. Because she knew he’d be fine, if it ever happened at all (or if it was make believe) The father was a hapless wimp, who went from crying in the attic to snapping at his children. He seemed utterly useless at handling life and could not even find that certificate despite the fact that it was among the papers he looked through with Jane. He was in prolonged mourning and deeply seated grief. He had signs of depression too, which can make you react in anger or anguish. Calling him a wimp is just unkind. People have different personalities. He was nothing like the Mr. Banks/father in the original film, who had a very likeable albeit flawed personality. So? They’re different people. Michael is not George. But honestly, Christopher Robin had far more depth to it than this nonsense, and I really think this was a misfire by Disney, sorry to say it. I couldn’t disagree with you more. I am a huge Mary Poppins fan and I adored the film, and smiled all the way through. The performers and songs were wonderful, and the costumes, sets, and fabulous 2D animation were beautiful. I loved it. Edited at 08:08 PM. |

Everyone has their own opinion. I’m one of the ones that didn’t enjoy it. Yes I’m a mega fan of the original. But I think it’s a marmite film. Great effects, my favourite character was the lady seeking balloons at the end
