Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang

CriticsCritics: 64
AudienceAudience: 6.2

A harried young mother struggles to manage a family farm while her husband is away at war. When two spoiled city cousins join her three children, a magical nanny arrives and uses extraordinary surprises to help the youngsters overcome their quarrels and learn important lessons about cooperation, sharing, and caring.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a whimsical, heartfelt family adventure with playful magic and lessons about teamwork; Not for you if predictable stories, broad humor, or wartime tension feel off-putting.
