Il ritorno di Mary Poppins: Emily Blunt molto apprezzata dalle prime reazioni

“Il Ritorno di Mary Poppins” è stato proiettato ieri sera in anteprima mondiale: ecco le prime reazioni alla visione del film Disney, che elogiano in particolare la performance di Emily Blunt.

Dopo ben 54 anni sta per uscire finalmente il seguito del musical Disney con Julie Andrews e Dick Van Dyke: “Il ritorno di Mary Poppins” (guarda il trailer). Sotto la regia di Rob Marshall, questa volta ad interpretare la celebre tata sul grande schermo troviamo Emily Blunt. La première mondiale ha avuto luogo ieri e, finito l’embargo nelle ultime ore, sono uscite numerose reazioni da parte della critica: hanno tutte un comune denominatore, ovvero… La lode all’attrice protagonista!

Il ritorno di Mary Poppins – Le prime reazioni elogiano Emily Blunt

Gran parte delle reazioni a “Il ritorno di Mary Poppins” risultano positive e, in generale, sembrano tutti concordare sul fatto che Emily Blunt abbia fatto un ottimo lavoro. Ad esempio, Joel Meares di Rotten Tomatoes scrive:

“Allora Il ritorno di Mary Poppins è un’eccellenza così grande. Emily Blunt prenderà tutte le nomination, Lin-Manuel vincerà tutti i cuori e la musica sarà nella vostra testa e nella vostra playlist per mesi.”

So #MaryPoppinsReturns is so much excellence. Emily Blunt will get all the noms, Lin-Manuel win all the hearts, and the music will be in your head and on your playlist for months.

Sulla musica de “Il ritorno di Mary Poppins”, però, non è d’accordo Yolanda Machado di The Wrap:

“Sigh. Non mi è piaciuto Il ritorno di Mary Poppins. Mi sono annoiata per gran parte del tempo e, da grandissima fan dei musical teatrali, la musica era così e così. Mancava una canzone che veramente catturasse il cuore. Ma Emily Blunt è fantastica, i bambini la adoreranno e farà un sacco di soldi.”

Sigh. I didn't love #MaryPoppinsReturns. I was bored for the most part and, as a HUGE musical theater geek, the music was so-so. It lacked a song that just sticks to your soul. BUT Emily Blunt is fantastic, kids will love it & it will make a ton of money. Review on Cosmo soon!

Germain Lussier di Gizmodo, invece, fa da spartiacque, apprezzando “Il ritorno di Mary Poppins” ma rimarcando quello che anche altri hanno twittato, ovvero il fatto che la pellicola risulterebbe un po’ troppo simile all’originale:

“Mary Poppins Returns è un film realizzato squisitamente con una musica gradevole, performance eccellenti (specialmente Emily Blunt) e ottimismo contagioso. Ma comunque… Sembra tanto simile all’originale. Nuove canzoni, nuove tecnologie, stessa storia e tematiche. Lo raccomando assolutamente comunque.”

Mary Poppins Returns is a exquisitely made film with delightful music, excellent performances (especially by Emily Blunt) & contagious optimism.

And yet…it felt SO similar to the original. New songs, better technology, same story & themes. I definitely recommend it though.

Ecco le altre reazioni a Il ritorno di Mary Poppins (via Entertainment Weekly), film Disney in uscita il 20 dicembre nelle sale:

I spontaneously sobbed in MARY POPPINS RETURNS.

The only thing I would have suggested they do to make the film feel more like the original was shoot in like three strip Technicolor, other than that, it so wholly inhabits the look and feel of the original in ways that are uncanny.

#MaryPoppinsReturns is…not for me. Emily Blunt is the only person who could have played that role, and she does a commendable job. But the movie just attempts to recreate too much of the original, and totally fails to recapture its magic.

Like Mary Poppins herself, if you need this movie in your life, it is going to be the most fulfilling two hours of your year. I in no way expected to walk out on the high that I did, but here we are. Such a wonderful film. #MaryPoppinReturns

I can finally say that I loved #MaryPoppinsReturns! Emily Blunt is practically perfect in every way! Also, @Disney needs to make branded tissues for every showing! So lovely! pic.twitter.com/z7LmfJMrde

"Mary Poppins Returns" has some great moments, but never consistent enough to be overall great. What is great and consistent is Emily Blunt in perhaps her single best performance yet. Oscar love coming her way.

Mary Poppins Returns is a spoonful of sugar. Vibrant, warm, elegant. MVPs: Emily Blunt, Ben Whishaw, Sandy Powell, Angela Lansbury’s balloons.

Rob Marshall, Emily Blunt, @Lin_Manuel & co have crafted a magical transporting work of art. A story that is undeniably familar yet miraculously brand new.

Tons of nods to the OG. The awards landscape has been turned on its head. #MaryPoppinsReturns is an instant classic! pic.twitter.com/ets2YVro52

The world needed a movie like #MaryPoppinsReturns right about now and Rob Marshall DELIVERED. It’s an old-school entertainment with the kinds of thrills you used to have to attend an X-Games to find. A true gift from @DisneyStudios – and just in time for the holidays!

I know I’m probably going to be in the minority but I didn’t love #MaryPoppinsReturns. It’s crowdpleasing but paint by numbers. Great production design, good music, Rob Marshall’s Stagey musical performances. Has moments of greatness but mostly not for me.
