This is a jolly, fun, colorful and of course family friendly sequel to the original 1960s Mary Poppins film. It features (like the original film) a mix of animation and live action scenes and various irritatingly catchy tunes (you've been warned, parents). It's certainly an entertaining watch - this is a solid piece of good family entertainment, which I imagine pretty much all fans of the original film will enjoy, certainly in parts, if not in full. Of course, it's also very much sentimental and unsurprisingly cheesy (but of course!), with some pretty predictable plot aspects but I suppose that's pretty much to be expected. As Disney films like this go, it's well worth a watch if you're interested, I reckon, so yes, I'd recommend it, although I wouldn't necessarily say it's the best of recent Disney films, it's by no means bad either. (also, finally, I couldn't quite figure out (certainly on first watching) what the symbolism was of the sailor and the boat.

They don't make 'em like this anymore! This sequel to the 1964 classic is pure joy from start to finish, although I think it will appeal more to the nostalgia in us older folks than the Teen Titan tykes of today. Emily Blunt's casting is perfection, creating a Mary that feels a bit more Maggie Smith than Julie Andrews. It is a fantastic movie star performance, and I hope she is recognized by the Academy. It's a hair bit long, but some of the musical numbers are sheer magic, and the live action/animated sequence is one of my favorites of the year. A special shout out to Whishaw who in many ways holds this film together. One of the best movies of the year! And no - I don't think you necessarily have to see the original to enjoy this one. But it wouldn't hurt.

I didn't enter "Jeepers Creepers 2" with any expectations. I was fully open to the possibility that it could be a completely different film from its predecessor. I had an absolute blast. The characters were likeable and the actors portraying them were more than up for the task. The film could be creepy, don't get me wrong, and I also don't believe the lack of tension to be a bad thing, for Jeepers Creepers 2 trades the original's suspense for a popcorn entertainment, a rather action-packed take on an eerie story. The film is to be commended on its ending, and although felt a tad forced at times, was better executed than its predecessor. Also (especially when taking into account the low budget of the original), the effects in this film are very impressive, the creeper's makeup effects are awesome, and the all the computer enhanced effects are strengthened by the obvious state of having more money to play with this time around. All in all, a thoroughly entertaining sequel, and just all-round fun.

Inventive and original thriller eschews typical slasher movie cliches to deliver a truly original version of the Devil. It's an unforgettable monster that will live in your nightmares. This is a road trip movie with horror veteran Justin Long and Gina Phillips; playing siblings on a drive back from college on spring break. The brother stupidly stops the car to investigate a well where many undead people seem to be buried and held captive; and in the process he catches the attention of The Creeper, a Pennywise-like demon that awakens every 23 years to capture new people & new slaves for his human-quilt and to harvest new body parts. The star of the movie is really the Creeper. This is a truly original monster that defies description and causes genuine chills. Thumbs up!

3/5 stars My first time watching, in 2024, and overall, not bad. The plot was a little empty, the acting was very good. The "creeper" is scary and a great bit of design, I feel it took a lot of inspiration off Stephen Kings "IT" especially with the "nest" and it only coming out every certain amount of years and for a certain amount of time. Darry Jenner was brilliant and performed his role really well, I didn't think too much to the sister, I felt her part was a little boring but was still well performed. Overall would recommend but don't think I would watch again.
