A barrage of obnoxious!

Rating: 2/10 (9 June 2019)

Get ready for rapid-fire obnoxiousness by the P.L. Travers character, vehemently portrayed by Emma Thompson. It gets to be so much that it gets hard to watch the movie for more than 15 minute snippets at a time! But I was intent on watching it because of the very decent cast. Sadly, the writing and directing falls into very corny traps that's undermines the ornery-quotient. The filmmakers didn't seem to know what they wanted to convey in their movie, so it's a rollercoaster ride of jerk-falsely-high handed-Brit and goofy-materialist-unsophisticated-American bouncing rather abrasively off of each other.
