Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"[T]his lovingly crafted production delivers both nostalgia and novelty. Ideally cast from top to toe, and graced by tuneful songs from Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman that genuflect to the invaluable contributions of the Sherman Brothers on MARY POPPINS, this is a charmer only cynics could resist." - 12/12/2018 Hollywood Reporter
"[I]t’s a rapturous piece of nostalgia -- a film that devotes itself, in every madly obsessive frame, to making you feel happy in the guileless way a movie still could back in 1964." - 12/12/2018 Variety
"The cast puts on a good show..." - 12/19/2018 RogerEbert.com
5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]his Poppins delivers plenty of modern verve by way of execution....Blunt offsets her brusque kindness with mysteries." - 12/12/2018 Total Film
4 stars out of 5 -- "MARY POPPINS RETURNS has boundless creativity, stacks of charm and not a cynical second..." - 12/12/2018 Empire
3 stars out of 5 -- "In his big-screen debut, Miranda has charm to spare and throws in a little rap during a number called A COVER IS NOT THE BOOK." - 12/18/2018 Rolling Stone
"The new movie is, like the one that came before it, a meditation on childhood, full of whimsies and mysteries and suspended disbeliefs, all of them grafted onto the sooty cityscape of London." - 01/03/2019 The Atlantic
