Nim's Island User Reviews

We showed this movie at our family movie night and everyone enjoyed it. I personally loved Jodi Foster and thought she did a marvelous job as the neurotic Alex Rover. I know I left the movie saying I wanted a flying lizzard! The animals were just wonderful. Great movie for all ages!

while i did enjoy it I felt that for the most part this is a kids movie. the overall plot teaches kids about being able to stand up for themselves when an adult is absent. which is a great message in itself. the only thing i found lacking was it didn't expand on Alex Rover's arrival on the Island. There was obvious disbelief and disappointment on Nim's part. Not to mention Jack's arrival back he just accepts her presence and the three of them become a sort of family. So a little disapointed there but kids will like it.

I loved it ! We had no idea what to expect after reading some of the negative reviews- but it's a fantastic movie ! It's funny for both parents and kids . The movie keeps a great pace- wasn't bored one time . Highly recommended ! A

I needed a good laugh andf got it in spades. Jodie Foster and Gerard Butler had great chemistry and they were hilarious.Butler shows in his movies that he can be funny, dramatic, action hero, romantic, etc., I love him next to Hugh Jackman he is my favorite actor.

I was really looking forward to seeing this movie and planned to take my 7 yr. old neice.I have to say after seeing it I will not be seeing it a second time with her after all. It was not a bad movie but not great either.I found myself bored a few times and Foster's character irritating. I am going threw health issues and wanted a nice,feel good movie.Thats hard to find these days.Im only 40 so I enjoy movies for the young and old.All I can say is the movie did not meet my expectations and believe me they where not that high.I dont think the movie would keep the interest of a child to be honest with you.I wished I had better things to say.Wait for the video.

Very kid-friendly and a mild sense of humor.
