Christian Science Monitor -
What actors! The great Miriam Margolyes has a wonderful cameo as a scullery maid, and Colin Firth manfully endures a face full of frosting. And then there's Angela Lansbury, playing her first movie role in 20 years as the villainous Aunt Adelaide.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Will kids like the movie? I suspect they will. Kids like to see other kids learning the rules even if they don't much want to learn them themselves.

Chicago Tribune -
Nanny McPhee maintains a satisfying, all-ages balance between broad comedy and human warmth.

Variety -
Under the surface, the movie has a streak of Roald Dahl-style darkness that dilutes the sugar.

Los Angeles Times -
A spicy little pastry with just the right proportions of flakiness and gooeyness.
