  This film adaptation written and starred by Emma Thompson is mostly more annoying than entertaining and serves more cheap fart-jokes than truly innovative humour or ideas. It is quite a surprise how many good actors director Kirk Jones has assembled here. There are names like Derek Jacobi, Imelda Staunton and Colin Firth and of course Emma Thompson herself involved here, but even a cast this good cannot save this film from being nothing else than a weak entry in slapstick fantasy. There are also times when Thompson's screenplay crosses the line between good and bad taste and ends up being quite offensive to be honest. Nanny McPhee's biggest positive element is it's refreshingly colourful production desing and set decoration by Michael Howells and Philippa Hart. Still clever looks does not make a good film and therefore Nanny McPhee ends up being a indifferent entertainment without anything recommend to. As a family entertainment and a fantasy-film it is just failed attempt.

  Nanny Mcphee is about a father that has a hard time keeping a nanny in house because his kids run the house. Then nanny Mcphee comes to see if she can help. At first the kids will do anything in their power to get rid of the new nanny. Will Mcphee leave or stay and teach them how to behave. Pros Good plot Con lacking acting I just thought Mary poppins was a better film.

  "When you need me, but dont want me, then I must stay. When you want me, but dont need me, then I must go." Nanny Mcphee is the mysterious, amusing and a bit scary Nanny~! Emma Thompson wrote the screenplay for the film and also stars as Nanny McPhee,really bringing the character to life. Through the use of make up and costuming that included a nose, unibrow, warts, large earlobes and padded costumes Emma Thompson is transformed (almost unrecognizably) into the ugly mysterious, slightly lovable and slightly scary Nanny McPhee. I loved this movie it had a ton of charm and really witty dialogue~!! well worth seeing.

  Actually, kind of funny.

  A really fun kid?s film, Mary Poppins meets The Sound of Music in this updated fairy tale style story. Filled with colour and magic, this made for enjoyable watching.

  It was cute, witty, and had a great cast.

  Not as good as I expected, however watchable and somewhat enjoyable!

  Introducing The New-Age Mary Poppins. Emma Thompson is thoroughly charming in this and entertaining film. With a high caliber cast to match, playing fabulous Dickensian characters.

• Anthony L

  
  A very sweet and touching children's film, Thompson is brilliant (both as actress and writer) but Lansbury steals the show 9I didn't realise it was her until the end credits!).

  Being a pretty wild and colorful modern version of the Mary Poppins topic of a nanny changing the life of her new household, this film combines a cast of top notch British actors. It is mostly their talent and the plenty of ideas for pranks of the Brown children that make this movie work for young and old. It is mostly kids that should have fun with the Nanny's magic and education methods. Only the end turned out to be maybe a tad too cheesy. Still, a decent feel good movie with its heart at the right spot and likable actors.

  Pleasant fantasy, marred a bit by the true odiousness of the children at the beginning, Angela Lansbury is clearly having fun with her crone and the production design is truly impressive.

  The film started off as very annoying. I absolutely hated the children, there was nothing likable about them tomake them sympathetic. Luckily due to Emma Thompson's writing and some decent child performances the childrens plight became endearing and enjoyable. Unfortunately the predictability makes the film's outcome obvious within a few minutes and Emma Thompsons character fades more and more into the background. It may make sense in context of the story but her magic becomes confusing as does the reason her deformities start to disappear. Some of the older british actors are that unfortunate type who can't change between stage and screen, making it clear to see that they are acting as opposed to taking on a role. Firth keeps the film together emotionally and it's a wonderful family film.
