Great Movie

Except for a few parts, this was a great movie. There were two levels to the story: Nim is literally on an island, and Alex Rover is metaphorically on an island. My only question is where was Alex's life jacket? You'd think being the type she is she would have insisted on wearing one. And how did she manage to row in a monsoon?

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

This movie is sooooo boring! I was looking forward to watching it after all of the movie trailers made it look action packed and exciting. It looked like a really cute show. WRONG!!! The movie is boring and lame and all of the actors/actresses do a terrible job. I usually enjoy Jody Foster and the other talents in this movie, but they should have stopped filming while they were ahead and that was in the process of reading the script. Don't waste your money, if you want to see this show, rent it for a dollar or two. It's definitely not worth anything more than that!

Wanted more!

Sure it was great to see Gerard Butler, but this was just okay. Jodie Foster, to me, wasn't cast properly in this. It's a cute family movie, just rent and skip buying this one!

Trailer Say What?

Anyone who has seen this Movie needs to go back and watch the trailer. The trailer describes it as an action pack adventure as an Action Writer (Jodie Foster) and a little girl (Abigail Breslin) go in search of her missing father (Gerard Butler). There is no action, no adventure and no SEARCHING. Everyone just ends up together in the last 8 minutes of the movie. Yes, the trailer is good. It's very good. It hooked me out of a $5 rental.
