'Mary Poppins Returns': Emily Blunt is Oscar-worthy say early viewers, critics

The LA premiere of the upcoming movie happened Thursday night and critics, actors, and other film enthusiasts pointed out this is the one film we needed the most right now
PUBLISHED DEC 1, 2018

It's official: Emily Blunt has done it again. Lin-Manuel Miranda has done it again too. And, so has Rob Marshall! A couple of days ago we had assembled some of the finest bits of the upcoming 'Mary Poppins Returns' film that was sure to make it a hit with the fans, despite Julie Andrews not returning for even a little cameo for the revival film.

And, by the looks of it, we weren't wrong. Not nearly, going by the early viewers. Most reactions gushed about how equally iconic Blunt's Mary Poppins is, and serving as her perfect sidekick in the film, Miranda, is no less spectacular!
