ENTERTAINMENT
It's hard to think of a movie that has been loved by families and children more than Mary Poppins of the last 40 years. This is an amazing vision of creativity, adventure, and song with an absolute brilliant performance from leading lady Julie Andrews. Watching it again brought me back to the time when I watched it as a child with my parents, and I look forward to watching it with my children in years to come (when I get around to having them!).

Watching this definitive edition on DVD brings a whole new experience and brings an amazing new level of entertainment with the remastered audio and video. Since this movie is a timeless classic and still brings joy to audiences, it receives a perfect score for entertainment .

LASTING FACTOR
Mary Poppins, in any form, is a timeless classic, but to see it in a two disc set jam-packed with extras is the way you're going to want to keep it in your DVD collection. This is finally the definitive ultimate edition we've all been waiting for, and the one that will be pulled out every time you have the entire family together.
AUDIO & VIDEO QUALITY
The DVD has been reworked a few times over now, and the audio and video experience is absolutely stunning considering this film is now 40 years old. It looks great, it sounds great – what more could you want?
ORIGINALITY
Believe it or not, Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is an actual English language word, and it's a testimate to the film's amazing power that such a ridiculous thing is actually true. The acting, the writing, and most of all the acting of Mary Poppins set it apart from all other films of its era. There was only one movie like this before, now, and forever – an absolute all-time movie when it comes to family entertainment and originality.
OVERALL IMPRESSION
This 40th Edition DVD set of Mary Poppins is finally the edition all Disney lovers have been waiting for, with all the extras that we crave and love. There's no doubt that you'll be watching this DVD many times over and will become one of the most played in your DVD collection. An Editior's Choice DVD winner if there ever was one.
