So, #MaryPoppinsReturns is pretty good. Emily Blunt is dynamite, but the film peaks in the first act and many of the musical sequences stop the movie dead in its narrative tracks. There's very little actual storytelling, The Oscar talk is absurd, but that's not the movie's fault. pic.twitter.com/rtVwVldMcF
