Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: C Feb 14, 2012 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: B+ Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Steven D. Greydanus Decent Films Almost defiantly old-fashioned. There is something charming about the idea that children will still go for this sort of thing. Rated: B+ Sep 5, 2010 Full Review Anton Bitel Projected Figures Written by and starring Emma Thomson, Susanna White’s magical sequel goes all Mary Poppins on wartime domestic dysfunction in rural England Dec 29, 2023 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) A fable for children with adult pretensions. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 8, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Feels like an attempt to mimic the magic and creativity of Mary Poppins, but without the singing, the dancing, and the fun.

Pedro G Excelente película, una secuela genial al nivel de la primera. Esta película nos presenta una situación parecida a la de la primera película, con una historia muy entretenida y divertida en la que unos chicos necesitan a una niñera para que ponga orden y les enseñe algunas cosas para mejorar sus actitudes. Sin embargo, en esta cinta creo que la niñera era mas que nada por la situación que vivía la familia y la madre, ya que los chicos a pesar de ser un poco insoportables y portarse mal, no eran como los de la primera película. Si bien no se reflejo del todo la actitud maleducada de los chicos, me parece que el mensaje sigue siendo claro y esta bien construido. La producción fue muy buena, las locaciones usadas están muy bien hechas y la banda sonora tiene un gran nivel. Por otro lado, los efectos cumplen y se nota una pequeña mejora a diferencia de la anterior película. El maquillaje, principalmente en la nana, sigue estando genial. Las actuaciones son brillantes, principalmente las de Emma Thompson, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Asa Butterfield, Maggie Smith, Ewan McGregor, Rhys Ifans, Ralph Fiennes, etc. Por ultimo, quiero destacar el final de la cinta, ya que nuevamente es emotivo y esta vez se le suma un reencuentro muy emocionante y una revelación tremenda que nos va a emocionar bastante también. En conclusión, una excelente película para chicos y grande, que es muy disfrutable y te puede emocionar con algunas escenas. Muy recomendada. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/24 Full Review Dinos K The first movie was very good, the sequel.. is not so goos.
