"Mary Poppins Returns" stars: Emily Blunt as the practically-perfect nanny with unique magical skills who can turn any task into an unforgettable, fantastic adventure; Lin-Manuel Miranda as her friend Jack, an optimistic street lamplighter who helps bring light-and life-to the streets of London; Ben Whishaw as Michael Banks; Emily Mortimer as Jane Banks; and Julie Walters as the Banks' housekeeper Ellen; with Colin Firth as Fidelity Fiduciary Bank's William Weatherall Wilkins; and Meryl Streep as Mary's eccentric cousin, Topsy. The film also introduces three new Banks' children played by Pixie Davies, Nathanael Saleh and newcomer Joel Dawson. Angela Lansbury appears as the Balloon Lady, a treasured character from the PL Travers books and Dick Van Dyke is Mr. Dawes Jr., the retired chairman of the bank now run by Firth's character.

If you are looking for the standard “New” Disney Vs the classics, you have found the perfect example. We have run-of-the-mill animation, forced songs, out-of-work actors (well, maybe not Emily Blunt), subpar scripts made to fill time, and hokey acting (If you can call it that).
There is one positive thing to look for, or actually listen to. Jay Leno had the car that the film producers needed to record the sound effect of a 1930s car.
This film trades on the reputation of the original Mary Poppins (1964). In the meantime, there have been other Mary Poppins spinoffs.
Most of the filming locations were on various Stages, Shepperton Studios, Shepperton, Surrey, England, UK.
There is nothing wrong with this presentation—just better things to watch.
