 Bedknobs and Broomsticks Standard Release DVD - MovieWeb
Reportedly, Walt Disney had wanted to produce Bedknobs and Broomsticks before making Mary Poppins, but the rights to the Mary Norton novel eluded him.
As it turned out, Bedknobs came out after Poppins, and was unfavorably compared to the earlier film.
While Bedknobs and Broomsticks made money, it failed to match the huge success of Mary Poppins; time, however, has been very kind to the film.

Rightfully criticized as being unsuccessful in its attempts to emulate Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks nevertheless is a quite likeable and rather appealing musical for children.
While it's a shame that Bedknobs is not the classic it could have been, there are more than enough assets to make it worth watching.
Bedknobs and Broomsticks was probably the first Walt Disney motion picture I saw at a drive-in.

The same standard themes were there, a spinster with magical powers, children who are neglected, a funny man love interest, plenty of songs and the clever use of animation with live actors.
If you compare Bedknobs and Broomsticks to Mary Poppins then there is only one winner, but if you look at this film in its own right then it is worthy of its Disney classic title.
Although the story is lacking and the music is not the best the Sherman Brothers have ever produced, the special effects and mixture of animation and live action are very well done for the time and brought to life on DVD with great care.

 Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "Bedknobs and Broomsticks"
Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a fanciful Disney movie that came out in 1971.
A lot of people compared it to Mary Poppins because it involves children and their fun, kooky guardian who meet up with a fun guy and have crazy adventures.
However, in my opinion Bedknobs is SO much better than Mary Poppins because I can watch Bedknobs without fear of contracting diabetes from the saccarine sweetness.
