DVD Reviews of Nanny McPhee (Widescreen Edition)

DVD Review: A different spin on Mary Poppins
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a very good movie. It's a different kind of spin on Mary Poppin's. It maybe a little dark for small children under the age of 6. Highly recommend if you like Mary Poppins.

DVD Review: Wonderful movie for young and old alike!
Summary: 5 Stars

One sugar plum of a movie! Very funny and a pleasure for kids and parents. I much prefer this to Mary Poppins.

Description of Nanny McPhee (Widescreen Edition)

A mysterious governess uses magic to regain control of the misbehaved children of a widowed funeral director.
Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: PG
Release Date: 22-AUG-2006
Media Type: DVD
With hairy warts, a stern-looking unibrow and one extremely protruding buck-tooth, Nanny McPhee is a wonderfully comedic substitute for Mary Poppins in this entertaining family fantasy. By loosely adapting Christianna Brand's Nurse Matilda children's books of the 1960s, Oscar?-winning screenwriter Emma Thompson (Sense and Sensibility) has also given herself the plum role of Nanny McPhee, who can tame even the most unruly children with a tap of her magic walking stick. Her latest challenge is the bratty brood of a recent widower Mr. Brown (Colin Firth), who's under pressure to find a new wife or lose his much-needed allowance from wealthy Aunt Adelaide (a tailor-made role for Angela Lansbury). His love for scullery maid Evangeline (Kelly Macdonald) remains unspoken as he wincingly woos the eagerly merry widow Mrs. Quickly (Celia Imrie), but Brown's raucous rugrats have a plan to make things right, especially after they've come under the benevolent influence of Nanny McPhee, whose peculiar brand of discipline works wonders for everyone involved. Both quintessentially British and universally appealing, this wildly colorful comedy (thanks to a bold palette of costume and production design) was capably directed by Kirk Jones, whose appreciation for comic actors was equally apparent in his critically acclaimed 1998 comedy Waking Ned Devine. With just a hint of darkness to offset the whimsy, Nanny McPhee offers a splendid match of director, cast and material, guaranteed to please Wallace & Gromit fans and anyone else with a taste for British zaniness. --Jeff Shannon
