Saving Mr. Banks [OV/OmU]

At its best, Saving Mr. Banks is in that writers’ room, mining differences of opinion for combative comedy; Novak, especially, has the Office-honed chops to make impatience funny.

...Emma Thompson, perfectly cast in every way down to her tightly wound perm...

The longer the film goes on...the more you realise that Hanks and Thompson are born to play Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.

The story is strongest not in showing Travers’ genesis but the film genesis of her great creation.

...John Lee Hancocks herligt eskapistiske opvisning i filmisk råhygge, skamløs følelsesporno og klukkende godt humør.

...historien bag Mary Poppins er fascinerende.
