Our Review: ✔ Watched it on 3-7-2024 (PS, HS in Niagara). Long awaited sequel to the orginal great classic. About 54 years later! Wonderful to see Dick Van Dyke in the new film! This is an excellent family movie; and being from Disney, it’s almost a surprise that it lacks their usual woke foolishness. The music is Poppins-style, but not quite as memorable as that of the original. But this is a worthy sequel. The movie continues the sense of enchantment, make-believe, and childhood wonder of the original. Mary Poppins is slightly more human and vulnerable in this version. But she too helps to put things right in a family that needs quite a bit of help and guidance. Excellent performances by:

• Emily Blunt as Mary Poppins
• Lin-Manuel Miranda as Jack
• Meryl Streep as Cousin Topsy
• Colin Firth as Wilkins / Wolf (voice)
• Dick Van Dyke as Mr. Dawes Jr.

For us, this movie is a fresh delight in the tradition of the classic. Enjoyment rating: 4 stars.

Clean Review: From a clean standpoint, there are no obvious issues. It’s a family film with a happy, positive, fantasy of childhood make-believe and wonder. An excellent movie with a Clean Rating of 5 (the max).

TMDB: Mary Poppins returns to the Banks family and helps them evade grave dangers by taking them on magical, musical adventures.

• Rob Marshall Director, Story
• David Magee Screenplay, Story
• P.L. Travers Novel
• John DeLuca Story
