Nanny McPhee appears at the door of a harried young mother who is trying to run the family farm while her husband is away at war. But once she’s arrived, Nanny discovers that the children are fighting a war of their own against two spoiled city cousins who have just moved in. Relying on everything from a flying motorcycle and a statue that comes to life to a tree-climbing piglet and a baby elephant, Nanny uses her magic to teach her mischievous charges five new lessons.

damn Isabel is so strong, i would cry my eyes out if my fuckass nephew suddenly wear my wedding dress and proceed to ruin them for chasing them pigs (even though the pigs were really worth it) then hear my husband "killed in action" through telegram the next day (glad he didn't)
