Mark Kermode Reviews Mary Poppins Returns

Is The Magic Back?

Mary Poppins Returns is in cinemas in the UK and US now and Mark Kermode just reviewed it for BBC Five Live so here’s his review…

Now an adult with three children, bank teller Michael Banks learns that his house will be repossessed in five days unless he can pay back a loan. His only hope is to find a missing certificate that shows proof of valuable shares that his father left him years earlier. Just as all seems lost, Michael and his sister receive the surprise of a lifetime when Mary Poppins — the beloved nanny from their childhood — arrives to save the day and take the Banks family on a magical, fun-filled adventure.

Here’s the trailer for it too
