Mary Poppins Returns

I think this is absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!! I like the animated wolf badger and weasel, but I'm hoping Wolf badger and weasel will get recast, and it'll replace old cast to new cast like Hugh Grant, Brendon Gleason, and David Oleyowo.

I have to say the first Mary Poppins confused me so much but I love in this that it was all explained!I also ADORE Lin-Manuel Miranda in the role of Jack the lamplighter,his charm really expresses the role and his accent is great imo!Emily Blunt is also a wonderful Mary Poppins.'A Cover is not the book' is so iconic aswell as the show-stealer 'Trip a little light fantastic'

They don't make 'em like this anymore! This sequel to the 1964 classic is pure joy from start to finish, although I think it will appeal more to the nostalgia in us older folks than the Teen Titan tykes of today. Emily Blunt's casting is perfection, creating a Mary that feels a bit more Maggie Smith than Julie Andrews. It is a fantastic movie star performance, and I hope she is recognized by the Academy. It's a hair bit long, but some of the musical numbers are sheer magic, and the live action/animated sequence is one of my favorites of the year. A special shout out to Whishaw who in many ways holds this film together. One of the best movies of the year! And no - I don't think you necessarily have to see the original to enjoy this one. But it wouldn't hurt.

I think that it is sad to see such a good potential go to waste, i think that the movie should have more references to the first movie, Mary Poppins in this movie feels nothing like the one from the first movie. The only thing that i liked is the story even though it is a little too dark for my liking compared to the first.

Not good. Don't try to re-create and add onto to an iconic film like this. The only high note was the return of Duck Van Dyke

At the start I hated that Lin Manuel Miranda was Jack, but he kinda killed it with Lovely London Sky. I may like this one more than the original Mary Poppins, though I'm not ready to make that argument yet.

The way this movie rips off its first makes Thor love and thunder look like our glorious savior

The new songs are hit or miss (which I expected, especially since the original has a jaw dropping number of perfect songs) but the movie is a lot more charming than I expected. Most surprising is that the movie finds a compelling arc for Michael Banks (featuring Ben Winshaw in the best performance in this movie), one that neither mirrors his father's in the first one nor feels forced.

Disney's Mary Poppins Returns is the latest sequel to the first 1964 film, and boy this is GREAT! Emily Blunt as Mary Poppins definitely a good casting job, Lin-Manuel Miranda fantastic job, Julie Andrews really good character ark, and finally Meryl Streep & Dick Fan Dyke we're really awesome as well. Everything was just as GREAT just like I expected it to be for a sequel like this!!!

it doesnt in any way surpass the 1964 original with Julie Andrews but 'Chicago' director Rob Marshall makes a worthy follow-up starring the very talented Emily Blunt she really does a great job playing the enchanted nanny that floats from above her personality is kept in check, too with the children claiming she's magical yet she constantly denies it but with a smirk on her face 25 years have passed in between the original film and this one; Jane and Michael (Ben Wishaw and Emily Mortimer) are all grown-up, Michael's wife has passed away, now he and his sister and taking care of 3 of his children but he's having financial difficulties so the timing is right when Mary Poppins comes back to help the Banks in need with the help of fellow lamp lighter, Jack played by Lin-Manuel Miranda and her cousin, Topsy played by Meryl Streep to save their home from being repossessed by a wolf-of-wall-street like banker played by Colin Firth the songs arent as memorable and it's a bit lengthy but the choreography is impressive particularly the lamp lighters in the streets of London and the traditional animated sequence which is my fav scene plus this is the kind of light-hearted, uplifting experience we need in these times we live in everything is possible, even the impossible, nothing is never truly gone, just misplaced, you can look at things better from another point of view, there's nowhere to go but up, and even though we become grown ups we often forget the good times as children, we just have to remember the tone may be a bit jarring from the adult problems to the magical whismyness of the songs but Emily Blunt carries the title character with such grace such adorable cameos from Dick Van Dyke and Angela Lansbury, too
