Actors: Emma Thompson, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Ralph Fiennes, Maggie Smith, Rhys Ifans, Ewan McGregor

In the latest instalment, Nanny McPhee (Emma Thompson) appears at the door of a harried young mother who is trying to run the family farm while her husband is away at war. Once she's arrived, Nanny McPhee discovers that Mrs Green's (Maggie Gyllenhaal) children are fighting a war of their own against two nasty, snobby cousins who have just moved in and refuse to leave. From flying motorcycles and statues that come to life to a tree-climbing piglet and a baby elephant that turns up in the oddest places, Nanny McPhee uses her magic to teach her mischievous charges five new lessons.

Strictly for the kids and it's worth 3 stars as purely a children's movie, but that's where it ends. Emma looks embarrasssed to be there most of the time. Not a patch on the first movie........it's mainly pretty silly with too many computrer generated gimmicks to make up for a bad plot and serious lack of content.......maybe kids won't like it??

If you liked the first Nanny McPhee movie, you will love this one too. It gives a little more insight to the character and has a lovely connection to the first movie. Definitely a family favourite.

I disagree with the other reviews, I think that this movie was every nit as good as the first. Granted the magic was more in your face than the first one, but the children got to perform it themselves in this one, and it was eventually magic that brought them together. There were a lot of laugh out loud moments, I watched this with my little brother while he was home from school with tonsillitis and he loved it too. The youngsters who played the children have a lot of talent (the older boy was Bruno from The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas and I think he did very well going from drama to comedy/family) and of course Emma Thompson was amazing as usual. It brought out the magic even more and accentuated the closeness that Nanny McPhee builds with her young charges. This movie deserved a 5 star rating.

I expected almost nothing of this movie - the kids had been keen to see it and me not-so-much - but from the very beginning (and I wasn't planning on paying attention) it had me delighted and very interested.... I think I saw most of this movie from start to finish which is more than I can say for most fo the kids movies we own (and we own quite a number!)

The first Nanny McPhee was a gem so I eagerly awaited the release of this second issue. It was a disappointment in that it was high in slapstick and lacking in believeablity. Whereas the first was as much an excellent film for adults as it was for for younger viewers.

No where near as good as the first one. Trying too hard to copy the first one, but epic FAIL!

Big disappointment. I'm 25 and absolutely loved the first movie, having seen it several times, but the second one is way over the top and unrealistic. Might be good for a young audience, but for the adult still in love with childrens films: don't bother.

The kids will love this!! It is even better than the other Nanny McPhee films. More laughs, more fun, cute animals and fantastic effects. We all loved it. The cutest animals you've ever seen add the 'aww' factor and they steal the show. Great cast, good to see Rhys Ifans again in a pefect role, and of course Emma Thompson is excellent. You will want to see this more than twice especially the kids. They may even learn a thing or two! My son behaved himself for a whole day afterwards and even folded his clothes!! A must see film all the family will enjoy (even Dad)!

The original 'Nanny McPhee' movie has been a family favourite for a long time and I'm thrilled to say this was just as wonderful for all ages 2 - 92 years, great easy to understand story line, full of funny side splitting scenes and sure to be another family favourite. Just adored the final scene with 'little Aggie' from the original movie, tied them together beautifully.

Another delightful Nanny McPhee movie, this time set during one of the World Wars - I'm not too sure which. Good story, nice acting, interesting characters - Maggie Smith as a shop keeper with dementia for example, and the disgusting Mr Eidleweiss - but somehow I didn't think it had the passion of the first one.
