Summary: Nanny McPhee (Thompson) arrives to help a harried young mother (Gyllenhaal) who is trying to run the family farm while her husband is away at war, though she uses her magic to teach the woman's children and their two spoiled cousins five new lessons. (imdb)
"Thompson spends much of Nanny McPhee Returns's interminable 109-minute runtime trying to set her homely titular heroine apart from Mary Poppins." - Simon Abrams
I really like Maggie Gyllenhaal and Emma Thompson. The first Nanny McPhee was fun and entertaining. However, this one just does not come close to measuring up to that standard. The problem with this one is the story. Also, some of the performances were campy and overacted. A kids movie, but it is so much less enjoyable than the original. Very disappointing.
