Definitely a great kids' movie. Very empowering for young girls to see that they have the strength and reserve within themselves to overcome obstacles. Adults need to remember to view this movie through the eyes of a child - for whom it was written. Jodie Foster was a bit miscast, but she did okay. As far as Gerard Butler goes - can the man do anything wrong? I think not. He proved his mettle in playing both the roles of Nim's father Jack as well as the subconscious of Alexandra Rover in the form of Indiana Jones type hero, Alex Rover. Butler shows us once again what a versatile actor he truly is. And he's not bad to look at, either. This film has something for everyone, especially for kids and their moms. Although, it can also be seen as a father/daughter movie since the movie also shows the heartwarming relationship and love between Nim and Jack. Highly, highly recommended.
I thought it was really cute. I didn't get bored taking my dd and my niece and nephew. we all had lots of fun and my dd got really into the movie. it was well played and the location was beautiful. it was just silly and fun not meant to betaken seriously. just a fun kid movie.
my friends saw it and they said it was one of the worst kids movies since aguamarine.I take there word and i wont be seeing it any time soon. TO WATCH THIS... http:/ /freecrackers.b logspot.com/200 8/04/nims-islan d-2008.html
I would give this one 2 stars just because it was a great thought for a script but it was really disappointing how they screwed it up completely. It gets worse with every episode :( I wasn't too crazy about their jungle house so tastfully decorated by a YMCA designer... The Coach pillows just killed it for me. Jodie Foster was a bit overacting with her mental issues, it became annoying, and you think she is too old and not attractive enough for Nim's Hot daddy. Where was I?! ;)
