Simply put, singing, dancing and production can be given five stars, but I think it is too much to give one star for the plot. As a song and dance film lover, I watched the 1964 "Happy in the World" three times, and the classic clips in the period are even more n-brushed, especially the chimney dance. So when I saw that I was going to shoot 2, I looked forward to it. After all, the technology in 1964 caused the special effects in it to be really exciting. And for such a classic movie, the sequel is definitely a big production, and the cast is also very strong. I was full of expectations after watching the trailer.
First of all, let me talk about the advantages, that is, singing, dancing and production, including acting skills, are very well tested. Moreover, most of them correspond to the previous one, including the chimney dance, which I really like, and the penguin section. Coupled with the current special effects technology, the entire film is very gorgeous. If you just appreciate singing and dancing, this film is actually very good.
However, as a person who watched this movie with feelings, it was very uncomfortable for me to watch it. Although the focus of the first part is to tell parents not to ignore their children. But, Marry Poppins is a babysitter, and the child is directly responsible. Moreover, she is a dream magical nanny, young and beautiful, and will take her children through various magical worlds. I think that a child who has been educated and accompanied by such a magic nanny should become an excellent person. This excellence does not mean that it is just like this, but it has some shining points, such as bringing happiness to the people around it, being tenacious and courageous, or being daring to take on such things. But watching the father in the second part, that is, the little boy in the first part, really makes me feel so uncomfortable. In every sense, he is a failed adult. As a husband and father, he has not fulfilled his responsibilities very much. He has been pursuing his unrealistic dreams, regardless of the family's deteriorating economic situation. It can be seen that the wife is taking care of everything at home, so after the death of his wife, he was caught blind and did not know how to deal with it. Then, as a person, I also cringe, and I get crumbled when encountering problems. I have neither the ability to solve problems nor the courage to face them. I still need my sister and children to take the lead. Not to mention that he is the root cause of the problem. If it were not for his wrong judgment, the bank would not find an excuse to take the house. All in all, it's a mess of life and can't bear to look straight.
Childhood experience has a profound impact on a person, and such a magical existence as a magic nanny should have a long-term positive impact on a child. For example, "McPhee, the Magical Nanny" of the same theme, she didn't mean to make children great or something, but she did teach these children how to live a good life. But the feeling that "Happy Man 2" gave me is that Marry Poppins is a completely failed nanny. She will only tell adults how you lost your childlike innocence, why you don’t understand your children, but the children she has taken care of are long The queen will still become such an annoying adult. In the end, she seemed to have solved the problem and flew away, but I didn't think she solved any problems. I don't even want to revisit the first movie now, because when I saw the little boy in the first movie, I felt that this education was a failure, and he became that way when he grew up.
