I begrudgingly took my three kids to this movie expecting to see an Unexciting Lemony Snickets motif meets Depressing Mary Poppins storyline. Was I surprised.
Emma Thompson is remarkable as the magical nanny whom brings order from chaos to a household brought low on the poor parenting of a deceased mother, and the continued pandering and catering of a confused and overwhelmed father.
She brings all things together in this wonderful film and I was surprised on many levels at its depth and maturity as a child's film. Was glad my kids saw it actually.
