DVD Review: “Mary Poppins 50th Anniversary”

Disclosure: I was sent this DVD to review in exchange for my honest opinion.

Mary Poppins: 50th Anniversary Edition (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy)

Released:  December 10, 2013

Studio:  Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment

Running Time:  139 minutes

Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke bring this timeless classic to life for the first time on Blu-ray. Bonus highlights include: “Mary-oke” an interactive segment that allows viewers to sing-along with famous songs from the film, “Becoming Mr. Sherman,” Saving Mr. Banks’ Jason Schwarzman reveals what it was like to take on the shoes of famed Disney musician Richard Sherman and the making of the Broadway musical.

First off I cannot believe Mary Poppins is 50 years old!  I remember when I was little singing “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” over and over, always wondering if it was a real word.  Even to this day when I give my kids medicine, I find myself singing “Because a spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go down.”  Now with “Mary Poppins” being released on Blu-ray I can share the movie with my kids.  We actually have the VHS of the movie, but its of course not the same as a Blu-ray.  This copy has been digital remastered and restored with some fun bonus content.  It is a classic movie that is timeless and one that every generation can appreciate.  I didn’t think the movie could get better until I saw it on Blu-ray, granted the last version I watched was on VHS!

BUY IT:  You can buy “Mary Poppins: 50th Anniversary Edition (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy)” on Amazon for $29.99 or wherever DVDs are sold.
