I've been looking forward to seeing this film. (Yes, I'm guilty as charged: I've never seen it until now!) I was late watching Mary Poppins as well, and yet when I saw it, I watched it three times within the same two weeks. I feel like this one's gonna be the same! I absolutely adore it.

This film couldn't possibly have failed... Roald Dahl is one of the script writers, Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman are the songwriters, and it stars Dick Van Dyke. A winning combination if ever I saw one! And it lives up to all my expectations. It's a feel good, family-friendly, fun-filled, wonderful, funny and charming work of art.

Don't listen to Lee Brown. I don't know what he was on when he watched it. For me, it's an absolute masterpiece. There's not many films that will keep me entertained for more than 90 minutes. But at a whopping 2 hours and 25 minutes, I can honestly say, I wasn't bored for a second. Go ahead and watch it, and thank me later. Warning: You WILL be singing the title's song all night long!
