Tinkering with a
classic character
(especially one as
beloved as Mary Poppins)
was always going to be risky,
but in this wonderful Disney
sequel, Emily Blunt carries
it off with aplomb. Just
like Julie Andrews in the 1964
original, her English nanny
is practically perfect in every
way with just the right mix
of sweetness and sass.
Based on P. L. Travers’
Poppins novels, the story this
time is set several decades after
the original, in Depression-era
London. Jane and Michael
Banks are now grown-up,
although Michael still lives in
the same house on Cherry Tree
Lane with three children of
his own. Following the death
of Michael’s wife, father and
kids are struggling to cope.
Can Mary restore laughter
to the Banks household, just
as she did all those years ago?
Whatever your age, this
magical musical will go down
in the most delightful way.

Doyle’s classic mystery
stories, legendary detective
Sherlock Holmes and his
sidekick Doctor Watson must
team up to solve a murder at
Buckingham Palace. Goodness!
With Will Ferrell as Holmes
and John C. Reilly as Watson
(both sporting ‘super’ British
accents), the jokes come as
thick and fast as the clues,
as the Step Brothers stars
reunite for an adventure that’s
anything but elementary.
