- In this dark and witty fable Emma Thompson portrays a person of unsettling appearance and magical powers who enters the household of the recently widowed Mr. Brown (Colin Firth) and attempts to tame his seven exceedingly ill-behaved children.

Emma's Back! - Nanny McPhee review by CP Customer
What a great little film! I loved it's charm, simplicity and the cast - including the kids are great. It's so good seeing Emma Thompson back on top - we always preferred you to Kenneth! Her performance is great and Colin Firth and Kelly MacDonald should also get a mention for thier perfrect chemistry. Imelda Staunton is wonderful as always, as the mad cook. The story line is predictable, but that doesn't matter. Some of the practical jokes played by the children are genius and I only wish I'd had the guts to do stuff like that when I was little!
I would watch this film if you have a house full of kids and it's raining, or if there are no kids around, watch it anyway instead of the eaastenders omnibus - you'll come away with a nice warm feeling.

Great for children - Nanny McPhee review by CP Customer
Very well put together and well acted film that missed being great by a whisker. I think there is just a little too much sugar at the end and the writing could have been a little tighter but overall excellent entertainment.
Emma Thompson in particular was splendid in the title role although all the performances were of a high standard.
