Set design gave prefect nods to Disney and the Poppins world. Felt like a "behind the scenes" Great acting. Sweet & enduring.
Awesome movie with one of our greatest modern actors, Tom Hanks. A great and interesting script with a heartwarming experience.
Lovely story, I've read a bit about P L Travers' life and this seemed to fit. Great casting too.
This broke my heart and has changed how I see Mary Poppins forever. A beautiful movie.
A movie about Disney and the backstory around making the Mary Poppins movie together with PL Travers. A good movie!
Tom Hanks always comes through. Cool story
Good story and casting. It is just over 2 hours long and a good watch.
Beautiful. A must for any Disney fan, but may not hold the attention of children. Paul Giamatti and B.J. Novak are the unsung heroes!
There were some heartwarming scenes, but I'm afraid it's not one that I'd go back to anytime soon.
Absolutely beautiful movie. It is a little slow, but a good, family-friendly watch. Great acting and soundtrack.
