Mary Poppins Returns


In Disney's Mary Poppins Returns, an all new sequel with a fresh sensibility that celebrates the spirit of the original, Mary Poppins is back to help the next generation of the Banks family find the joy and wonder missing in their lives. Emily Blunt stars as the practically-perfect nanny with unique magical skills who can turn any task into an unforgettable, fantastic adventure and Lin-Manuel Miranda plays her friend Jack, an optimistic street lamplighter who helps bring light -- and life -- to the streets of London.

This was a very decent watch.   The music was good.  Emily Blunt was great as Mary Poppins.  It will easily be the family film of the holidays this year.  The only problem is that there isn't much else to say about it.  It's not amazing.  It's not a must see.  It's not bad at all.  It's just kind of there and a redo of sorts of the first Mary Poppins.  

I would still recommend anyone with kids check this out - just like the first one.  It is an awesome family movie that drives home lots of points.  But honestly - it doesn't massively stick with you or anything outside of how good Emily Blunt is which is pretty much accurate for anything she does.
