A kind widower and his seven rambunctious children, facing financial ruin, turn to a witchcraft-wielding nanny to help get their household in order. (Netflix)
Reviews (2)
The kids, Colin Firth, and the late-Victorian stylings are oddly more annoying than similar attributes updated in Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang, yet both Nanny McPhee films are solid family entertainment. ()
Another one of those movies that I've been avoiding, but Christmas turned out to be a suitable time to watch it. Emma Thompson is simply great, not just as an actress, but also as a screenwriter. On top of that, there are other excellent actors with whom you will enjoy this fairy tale film. Entertaining and colorfully beautiful, bordering on kitsch. ()
