    Nanny McPhee Returns... with a bang!

    by danyca22

    I loved the movie! It was just as good as the first, but in different ways. I liked that the story line was different. There was also more magic in this movie than the last. And if you have seen the first Nanny McPhee, then the ending of the second will be a real tear jerker. I loved Maggie Gyllenhaal as Isabel Green. I believed her character and I couldn't imagine anyone else playing her part. I love the role of Maggie Smith as Mrs. Docherty. She brought a lot of comedy to the film. I am 25 years old and LOVED the movie. This movie is good for all ages!

    GREAT MOVIE! BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE

    by NJD

    We really enjoyed this movie. We thought it was much better than the first one. Good lessons about the benefits of good behavior and working together as a family. The pigs were great!
