I picked this movie because it was available on DVD at Redbox

What I liked the Most? The hilarious stunts of this movies

What I liked the Least? This time around it was stupid funny

Review: Well it’s been 5 years since the first movie and unfortunately the magic & the mystery seem to have faded in those 5 years. *sigh* Sticking to the formula that won hearts last time – the children have five lessons to learn – as each is learned the disfigured nanny loses one of her deformities and slowly becomes beautiful. There is a lot of good old-fashioned children’s entertainment. There are cute animals, jokes about poo and plenty of magic!

Maggie Smith almost steals the show with her small part as the rather befuddled Mrs Docherty.
