Mark Kermode 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. Apr 2, 2024 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian 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 Mar 28, 2024 Full Review Joe Clay 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 Jan 22, 2024 Full Review Zita Short InSession Film It mixes over the top, fantastical humor with genuine observations about the importance of really listening to your children. Feb 2, 2023 Full Review Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene 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... Sep 10, 2021 Full Review Ken Winters Winnipeg Free Press Mary Poppins is a product instead of the wholly enchanting children's art it so easily could have been.
