Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

The problem-solving is so brilliant, the songs are so great and Julie Andrews is so utterly, utterly perfect.

I have to admit that I find the real brilliance of the film is in the first act and things have wound down by the end, but what an entertainment sugar rush.

Rated: 5/5

The Times (UK)

Shot entirely indoors in a Hollywood fantasy version of late Victorian London, Disney’s evergreen family classic is arguably Walt Disney’s finest moment

It mixes over the top, fantastical humor with genuine observations about the importance of really listening to your children.

Mary Poppins is of a piece with the classic art-film archetype in which a mysterious stranger helps each member of a family through unlocking their emotional blockage, for better or worse...

Mary Poppins is a product instead of the wholly enchanting children's art it so easily could have been.

Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Mary Poppins is an outstanding five-star musical classic that I absolutely love. With its whimsical charm, unforgettable songs, and enchanting performances, it delivers a magical and heartwarming experience. Julie Andrews shines as the practically perfect nanny, and the film’s blend of live-action and animation adds to its timeless appeal. A delightful and uplifting Disney masterpiece that never loses its magic!

This is movie is perfection that all other movies, Disney or not, are held in comparison, to me. Light hearted and just fun/entertaining one minute and genuinely poignant the next. I absolutely love this movie.
