I thought this was a great musical rendition of the classic Christmas movie. The songs were great, not the usual cringeworthy abominations from this sort of thing. Matthew Broderick was born to do voiceover narration while breaking the fourth wall.
Considering it was all done live, I was poised to spot some mistakes. The only one I noticed was the kid with his tongue stuck to the flagpole became very briefly unstuck. Otherwise, an excellent production!

I couldn't watch the whole thing. The musical numbers were killing me. Some things should not be made into musicals.

I went in with an open mind. I tried my best but the performances and the music did nothing for me. No reason for me to carp about the new version so I'll just happily go back to the original. Can't wait for next year to see how I feel about the new Mary Poppins.

I guess this thing started at 6? We thought it was 7, came in during the Major Award number. Maybe missing the first hour helped, I thought it was kind of decent, but let's face it, you take out the 'ra ra ra' and it ain't as good, screw PC, people LOVE the 'ra ra ra'.
