7/10
Sadistic, but highly enjoyable!

This film is SADISTIC. I'm not even joking. First of all we have a Nanny who bangs a large stick, forcing children to harm themselves, break ornaments and burn their fathers letters from the war. Secondly, we have a bunch of rather weird looking women, who wish to remove a characters kidneys, and then STUFF HIM. Thirdly, we have a mother who lets her children go near and unexploded bomb, THEN disarm it. Not too mention a character who makes children believe they've lost their father in the war. I mean, what the hell!? BUT. I bloody loved it. It was a good laugh. Nothing at all special, and nothing award worthy, but it was a fun watch. Emma Thompson was a riot. It's basically the same as the first, but very different at the same time. Nice twist as well, involving Maggie Smith, didn't see that one coming!
