I saw this Thursday evening. I liked it a lot. It was a kid's movie but was enough to keep me entertained. [And kid's movies usually do.] I liked the overall message and Colin Firth and the kids they had acting.
Thought it was pretty flipping sweet.
This movie has been out for a while, but I didn't see another thread like this. If there was another one though, I could just lock it!

I saw an ad for it, and I thought that it looked like it could be good! Some time this summer I might rent it, I suppose. With JD's recommendation, how can I resist?
I finally saw this movie! I saw it today, and enjoyed it very much! It was fun and interesting, and the kids were really cute. And Colin Firth isn't a bad person to look at, either. I was surprised to see Angela Langsbury in the credits (which were very fun, by the way!) - I hadn't realized that she was Aunt Adelaide!
There were a few moments where I wished that they had gone for a more child-friendly viewihng experience, but overall it was quite good! Thanks for the recommendation, Jennifer!
I'm guessing you're avoiding it for reasons other than a fear of inappropriate content, though. And that's fine, too. It's not like it's a class must-see.
My siblings liked it better than I did. I liked Colin Firth and the kids, but the house was much too blue (and green, I suppose) and the cook was just scary. I particulary didn't like the scene when Mrs. Quickly came to tea. Also didn't like the children throwing cake at the end. I guess it was cute.
I agree about the tea scene. I would have liked the movie overall a lot better without that scene, or at least with it being done differently. That's where most of that content that mr.whit was concerned about came from.
my wife bought this movie a long time ago and i just now got around to watching it. has anyone else seen this movie? it was cute and i liked the way nanny mcphee got the oldest boy to think and reason out what to do next.
