Review of Mary Poppins Returns (2018) by Farfromheaven26 — 26 Dec 2018
Though the wholly enchanting "Mary Poppins Returns" received mostly excellent reviews as did the film's titular star Emily Blunt, what surprised me most was the terrific score by Marc Shaiman which is anything but unmemorable.
"Nowhere to Go But Up," "A Conversation," "Trip a Little Light Fantastic," "Underneath the Lonely London Sky," "The Place Where Lost Things Go,"(the film's very best song) and "Can You Imagine That?" lead a spirited, lyrically accomplished array of songs that make this homage to one of the screen's most beloved musicals in its own right an effervescent confection that also forges its own path.
Splendid cameo numbers from Dick Van Dyke, Angela Lansbury and Meryl Streep add to the unbridled merriment.
