Full Plot Details

When Walt Disney's (Tom Hanks') daughters begged him to make a movie of their favorite book, P.L. Travers' (Emma Thompson's) "Mary Poppins", he made them a promise - one that he didn't realize would take twenty years to keep. In his quest to obtain the rights, Walt comes up against a curmudgeonly, uncompromising writer who has absolutely no intention of letting her beloved magical nanny get mauled by the Hollywood machine. But, as the books stop selling and money grows short, Travers reluctantly agrees to go to Los Angeles, California to hear Disney's plans for the adaptation. For those two short weeks in 1961, Walt Disney pulls out all of the stops. Armed with imaginative storyboards and chirpy songs from the talented Richard M. Sherman (Jason Schwartzman) and Robert B. Sherman (B.J. Novak), Walt launches an all-out onslaught on P.L. Travers, but the prickly author doesn't budge. He soon begins to watch helplessly as Travers becomes increasingly immovable and the rights begin to move further away from his grasp. It is only when he reaches into his own childhood that Walt discovers the truth about the ghosts that haunt her, and together they set Mary Poppins free to ultimately make one of the most endearing movies in cinematic history.

Movie Reviews

Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) - 10/10 by Linda CookMary Poppins didn't just float in on the wind to make an appearance on the big screen. Hers was a 20-year struggle, and that challenge is depicted in 'Saving Mr. Banks,' the story of Walt Disney and author P.L. Travers.
Orlando Weekly - 10/10 by Cameron MeierThe sweetest and most magical film of the year.
Newark Star-Ledger - 10/10 by Stephen WhittyA desperately Oscar-hungry contrivance whose only hope lies with the terrific Thompson.
WaffleMovies.com - 10/10 by Willie WaffleGet ready for a movie about the magic, heartbreak and frustration of making a movie, along with some of the best acting performances of the year.
FoxNews.com - 10/10 by Justin CraigEmma Thompson's brilliant performance, a story that captures the joy and heartache of creation, the nostalgia of the Sherman brothers' classic songs, combined with Thomas Newman's bittersweet original score, make this a sweetheart of a picture.
The Movie Minute - 10/10 by Joanna LangfieldEven if this occasionally clunky "making of" picture does soften a lot of ragged edges, the trademark Disney charm's gonna getcha.
ReelViews - 9/10 by James BerardinelliTaken on its own, Saving Mr. Banks is a pleasant, crowd-pleasing endeavor. For those with a soft spot for Mary Poppins, however, it's a treasure.
McClatchy-Tribune News Service - 9/10 by Roger MooreIt was never going to be “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.” Reserve that honor for the film that inspired it. But Saving Mr. Banks is still one of the best pictures of the year.
The Film Stage - 9/10 by Dan MeccaThere is a lot of tricky narrative positioning in the script that works in building momentum, but it often feels so manipulated that it's tough to keep your eyes from rolling.
Baret News - 9/10 by Kam WilliamsTo paraphrase Mary Poppins, "Just a spoonful of sugar helps revisionist history go down," and in a most delightful way!
