Mary Poppins Returns (Merry Christmas to me)



I saw that over the weekend Aquaman beats Mary Poppins over the pre-Christmas week being that I am more the Lin-Manuel Miranda over Jason Mamoa type I opted to see Mary Poppins Returns on Christmas morn.

Michael Banks, played Ben Whishaw is all grown up and has three kids of his own and years later he and his sister Jane, played by Emily Mortimer, once again in need Mary Poppins’, played by Emily Blunt, help.

With taking bird umbrella and magic carpet bag in hand, the wind changes direction and down she comes. With Jack, played by Lin-Manuel, by her side Mary and the newest generation of Banks children go on a fantastic adventure.

Mary Poppins Returns gave me all the feels I feel every time I watch the first.

The story is sweet and adds to the first film. The cast is as wonderful.

And the songs are actually perfect in every way.

Along with a family a five still wearing the pajamas it truly was an enjoying time at the movies watching Mary Poppins Returns.
