I loved this movie. I loved how little snippets of melodies from the original movie crept in but it was also completely new music and new songs. Some of the scenes were reminiscent of the original movie, but again totally new. I love the upbeat ending, and the tender, positive way at looking at loss of loved ones in our lives. Emily Blunt was amazing, the children were amazing, and I totally enjoyed every minute of this movie. I’m 65 and watched the original several times with my own children. I think this version is actually an improvement,
