Well shot, but ultimately a very average movie.

A lot of people of a certain age seemingly cannot accept new concepts or ideas. Everything in the past was simply better and nothing contemporary could ever compete. Well, let them live in the past and let's embrace the past, present and future! This now leads me on to Mary Poppins returns. It's not the original nor does it ever claim to be. It's 2018, not 1964! It's merely a homage to the original. In short, I love both movies on their very different merits. Both are visually stunning. Both have amazing songs that will live long in the memory. Both left with me with a warm glow inside. Isn't that what these movies are supposed to do? So before comparing both movies, just simply enjoy them for what they are.
