A spoon full of editing makes the movie move along
We have ranked this at 23 out of 41 of the 41 animated movie Disney movies that we own. I will do my best to explain why it wasn't ranked higher. First is that we liked 22 other movies better. Secondly, if I could edit out about an hour of this movie, it might well end up in the top 10. These assessments come from my children, who found that while they enjoyed much...

Mary Poppins-Simply Marvellous!!, Déc 16 2004
This is a review for the new 2-disc Disney 40th Anniversary edition of Mary Poppins.
This is one of the best re-releases of this year.The movie is STILL(and will be for years to come) an aural and visual delight and designed for families and people of all ages.
Interweaving a wonderful story with some groundbreaking techniques and special effects Disney took/takes us on a magical ride in a recreated slice of life from 1910.
The story,by now familiar to many,involves the arrival to the Banks household of a nanny(Julie Andrews).In short order she manages to shake the prim and proper Banks household to its Edwardian core and teaches them,especially the "master" of his realm Mr.Banks(David Tomlinson),that there are more important things in life than strict adherence to schedule,rules and blind duty to ones'job.Bert(Dick Van Dyke),a friend to Mary,assists her whenever and wherever he can.
Julie Andrews plays her character with a wonderful reserve befitting the part and she sings beautifully.Whenever Mary gets too stodgy though Bert,played phenomenally by Dick Van Dyke,is always there to ease the atmosphere and put a smile on everyones' face.
The entire cast from the children,the servants to the admiral and the policeman all turn in a superb supporting job from beginning to end.
The restored print and accompanying sound track have been given the deluxe Disney treatment.Visually I have not seen as good a print of this film since I first saw it during its' premier in Toronto in late 1964.The versions I have seen over the years either on TV or on video just don't come close to this one.
My particular benchmark test was the colour and detail of the panoramic view(with special attention to the sky)when they climb the "smoke stairway" and gaze out over a late in the day city of London.
It is stunningly beautiful and was as I remembered it after all this time.That cinched it for me.
Aurally the liner notes tell us that the sound has been remastered into a Dolby 5.1 "Theatre Mix"(the original 2.0 theatrical mix is also included).
Translation:"Fantastic".
The movie never sounded as clean or as good.I couldn't help but to sing and tap my feet to all the numbers.
The set is loaded with a surfeit of extras that will satisfy even the most picky of movie buffs from footage of its' opening premiere in L.A. to a making-of special.
So grab the popcorn,get yourself seated comfortably on the sofa,turn down the lights and slip into the magical world of Mary Poppins like you've never experienced before.
Oh yes a heads up, grab the hankies for the "Feed the Birds" scene/number....you'll need it.

Mary Poppins; practically perfect in every way, Sep 9 2006
This is one of those films that has stood the test of time and is still entertaining now as it was 40 years ago. Everyone knows the tale of the magical nanny that blows in on the east wind and into the lives of the Banks family of 17 Cherry Tree Lane. Jane and Michael Banks have had a succession of strict nannies as well as a very strict father and a mother who is always out with her fellow suffragettes. Mary Poppins brings magic and fun into the children's lives, something that has been sorely lacking prior to her arrival.
Julie Andrews stars as the nanny and Dick Van Dyke as the lovable cockney Bert, (just forgive his dreadful accent) who always seems to be around at the right time for an adventure. The children find themselves having outings such as jumping into a chalk picture into a cartoon world, having a tea-party on a ceiling and dancing across the rooftops of London. Stuffed to the gills with songs such as 'Spoonful of Sugar', 'Chim Chim Cheree', 'Feed the Birds' and 'Jolly Holiday', this will have you tapping your foot throughout.
This 40th anniversary edition is on 2 discs and features lots of extras such as a documentary, commentary, footage of the premieres etc. The quality of print is very high, the colours have never looked so vibrant and the picture is razor sharp. Wonderful stuff.

This movie is Supercalifragilisticexpialidocous!!!!, Janv. 11 2005
Par Un client
I have not always been a big fan of this movie, but I realized that I was wrong. Julie Andrews performance is and always will be outstanding in this movie. I think all of us at one time wish we could make an interesting entrance via floating in from the sky through an umbrella. She makes work turned into fun when she gets the children Jane and Michael Banks to clean up the nursery. With the help from Bert, she uses her imagination when she, Bert and the children jump into a sidewalk drawing. Or when Mary and the children go to a tea party on the ceiling! This movie definately has plenty of special effects, especially when it was created in a time when there no computers. Not to mention lots of imaginative and creative ideas that would captivate both children and adults alike.

"Perfect Nanny", Juil 11 2004
Par Un client
Mary Poppins is my favorite movie. I love the charictors, the singing, the dancing. It is fun for the whole family. When I was alittle girl I watched it over and over again. I love to dance with the chimeny sweeps; I can't do everything they do, but still. This is the best master piece Walt Disney ever created besides Micky and friends. I love it and I am a teen.It is about a fun nanny who has magic. That is probobly why I like her. There is never a dull moment when Mary Poppins is around: fox hunting, laughing in the air, riding a merry-go-round without the going arout. One of the best parts of all, supercalafagilisticexpialadocious.

My Kids Love it!, Jui 29 2004
Par Un client
I have a preschooler and a kindergartener. They both watch it together. They get up and dance to "Step in Time" and "A Spoon Full of Sugar". We purchased the music CD, and listening in the car, makes the time go faster.

truly magical, Avril 2 2004
A film by Robert Stevenson"Mary Poppins" is one of the most beloved movies of all time, and for good reason. This truly is a magical film. It is a mixture of live action and animation and is a wonderful musical and is quite possibly the perfect family film. Nominated for 13 Academy Awards and it was the winner of 5, including Best Actress for Julie Andrews in her feature film debut. "Mary Poppins" is the story of, well, Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews). Mary Poppins is the new nanny for Jane (Karen Dotrice) and Matthew (Michael Garber) Banks. As a nanny, Mary Poppins is "practically perfect". She floats down from the sky holding on to an umbrella and convinces George Banks (David Tomlinson) to give her the job as the nanny. George is flustered by Mary and of course he gives her the job. The lives and experiences of the children are about to change because there is something magical about Mary. With a song and a dance amazing things happen around Mary. She can clean up a room with nothing more than a snap of the fingers and can take a journey into a picture drawn with chalk on a sidewalk. "Mary Poppins" perfectly mixes animation (the penguin waiters!) and live action to create a magical world that is an incredible change from the London that Jane and Matthew think they know. There are excellent acting performances and the over the top Dick Van Dyke is charming in how sweet he is. The whole movie is sweet, charming, funny, and fantastic. This is a highly recommended musical for the whole family

Though her words are simple and few, listen, listen..., Mars 12 2004
...she's calling to you.In my mind, this movie is the reason why Disney is great. The rest of them - however good many of them may be - don't hold a candle (on the water) to this wonderful Disney masterpiece. This is easily my favorite Disney movie ever and one of my favorite movies of all time. One of the things I love most about this movie is the fact that there's plenty of entertainment here for children; but there's also a lot of humor for adults. So, when the children grow up, they can have just as much, if not more, appreciation for the film. I love the way the satire starts out. Mrs. Banks comes home from her Sister Suffragettes Rally, shouting and singing for women's rights and equality with men ("Though we adore men individually,
We agree that as a group
They're rather stupid."). Then Mr. Banks comes home from work singing about the pleasures of being a man in this age in England: "It's grand to be an Englishman in 1910.
King Edward's on the throne;
It's the age of men!
I'm the lord of my castle!
The sovereign!
The liege!" I still love the thought of a house which sports a naval cannon deck on top. And I have to confess when I was a child I did try the finger snap to see if it would get my room clean. (It didn't work, so I just grew up in a messy room.) The fantastic acting performances by Julie Andrews (who received the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress - back in the days when the person who won was usually the person who deserved to win), the children, Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson, Glynnis Johns, Jane Darwell (though her part was very small), and the rest - cannot be overstated. I have already said that this is Disney's best film. Well, it is also boasts the finest acting ever in a Disney film. I highly recommend purchasing this in the Widescreen format. You will see a lot more of the picture than in the standard format. Unfortunately, the widescreen version is out of print (you can still buy them used; that's how I got mine); and it looks like the standard version may also be going out of print soon. Hopefully, that means there will be a special deluxe edition with both formats, documentaries, commentaries, etc. coming out soon.

Mary Poppins is a Fantastic Movie!, Janv. 23 2004
Mary Poppins is one my favorite Disney movies, it is mostly a live-action movie but includes a wonderful animated sequence. While it may be said that Mary Poppins is long for a Disney movie it can also be said that the movie moves at a fast pace and it's so fun to watch that you don't notice how much longer it is then the average Disney movie unless you are watching it on TV with tons of commercial breaks with boring long winded commercials. Mary Poppins is an adorable movie, the acting from Julie Andrews Dick Van Dyke, Ed Wynn, Karen Dotrice, Matthew Garber, Glynnis Johns and David Tomlison is very good and the rest of the cast is pretty top-notch too and the songs are wonderful and so catchy and I highly recommend this movie. I gave away my old video tape because I was going to buy this DVD but I will hold off and wait and see if it is true that they are putting out a new special edition two disc set.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, Déc 28 2003
Wonderful story of a nanny who comes riding on an umbrella into the lonely lives of two children to transform their world and that of the entire household with her whimsy, her magic, her love and songs and spoons full of sugar.
Julie Andrews plays the magical nanny of the film's title; Dick Van Dyke with the rubbery face and legs is her clownish beau Bert, the chimney sweep. Ed Wynn plays the uncle whose waves of giggles carry him soaring up to the ceiling. Set in Victorian England, the pompous father and fatuous mother are transformed by Mary Poppins' special brand of love, compassion, and understanding.
This movie was a blend of animation and live action, one which creator Walt Disney considered to be his crowning achievement. And then, of course, there's the music: A Spoonful of Sugar, Feed the Birds, Chim Chim Cheree, etc.
This is one to own and watch over and over with kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews, neighbor kids. Pass out the cookies and milk and sing along.
