Negative Positive
Title: VCR or DVD as nanny...
Review: Ok,so everyone parks the kids in front of the tube now and again. Nothing wrong with that when you can pop in one of the most cheerful children's classics ever. (Even grownups love the music--ok, admit it, you do.) The songs are brilliant, Julie Andrews sings like an angel, and Dick Van Dyke was a stroke of genius as Bert the chimney sweep--as lucky as can be!Other than the risk of hearing "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" to excess around the house after playing this film, what's not to like? The funny thing is that the movie is not exactly true to the more acerbic style Poppins of the P. L. Travers novels (she was NOT all sweetness and light, just read it.) But who cares, this is one kids' film that everyone loves. Up there with the Wizard of Oz.
Is the review positive or negative?
