‘Mary Poppins Returns’ brings the magic and music

Searching for a movie all ages can enjoy? Look no further than “Mary Poppins Returns,” a modern sequel to the beloved classic.

The Banks children are all grown up and struggling with the trials of adulthood when their treasured childhood nanny, Mary Poppins, brings some much-needed magic back into their lives. Leading actress Emily Blunt captures the title character perfectly, and Lin-Manuel Miranda – best-known as the creator of the hit musical “Hamilton” – holds a starring role. And, in true Mary Poppins fashion, there are plenty of fun musical numbers.

Catch Mary Poppins at AMC or Regal Cinemas.
