Nanny McPhee Returns (2010) REVIEW
With Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang (Nanny McPhee Returns in the US), Emma Thompson returns to the character she created in 2005's Nanny McPhee, based upon the Nurse Matilda books. Thompson not only stars, but also writes (as she did the original), creating a heartwarming lilttle children's movie that contains enough humor to keep the grownups entertained as well.
The story starts some 60 or 70 years after the first movie, during World War II. Maggie Gyllenhaal plays Mrs. Green, the mother of three children living in the English countryside. Her husband is off fighting in the war and she and her children are fighting to keep the farm going. The family is enlarged when two city cousins come to stay to get away from the London bombing. And matters are complicated when Uncle Phil tries to sell the farm to pay off his gambling debts.
Nanny McPhee enters unaged, like Mary Poppins, just in time to help the Green family with all of their various problems. As in the first film, she is here to magically teach the children five lessons and as each lesson is learned, Nanny McPhee's appearance becomes less ugly. She begins the movie with moles, a unibrow and bad teeth, but as the movie goes on she becomes more like Emma Thompson.
The humor is rather mild and gentle. It's definitely aimed at smaller children. Pleasantly though, unlike many American films, the children are rewarded for their good behavior and are shown that basically children want love and attention, but also require guidelines and discipline. It's pleasantly old-fashioned in this way.
Gyllenhaal does a good job as the put upon mother, delivering a very well done English accent in the process. Ralph Fiennes, Ewan McGregor and Bill Bailey all do small cameo appearances, while Maggies Smith has a small but memorable part as the rather absent-minded elderly woman who provides the connection to the first film. Thompson's McPhee ("small c, big P"), while in the title and key to the plot, is really in a supporting role to the children, but remains the center of the movie.
There are several moments of outright sappiness, but it's handled so deftly and so straightforwardly, that it works in the movie's favor rather than against it.
If I had young children, this is definitely the kind of movie I would want them to watch, and the kind I would have enjoyed myself at that age.
