Nim Rusoe (Abigail Breslin) lives on a deserted island with her scientist father Jack (Gerard Butler) and her best friends: Selkie, a sea lion; Fred, a bearded dragon lizard; and Galileo, a plucky pelican. But when Jack goes missing at sea and the island is "invaded," Nim reaches out via e-mail to the adventurous author (Jodie Foster) of her favorite books, and together, each discovers what it takes to truly become the hero of your own life story.

Family Fun
This is an enjoyable movie for the entire family.
Jodie Foster is a talent apart she makes you believe that she is the writer of adventure novels who's scared to leave her apartment and only eats progress soup.
Abigail Breslin is the perfect pick for the fun loving Nim.

I don't want to give away the movie but is fun and has a happy ending
This is a clean movie without sex, language, or vulgar innuendos. Could be a little scary for younger children (Nim is alone in a storm), but not a dark movie.

So if you're looking for something fun, uplifting and a lil silly for the family to enjoy this is your movie :)

NIM'S ISLAND: A BIG SURPRISE
I borrowed a copy of NIM'S ISLAND from the library and brought it home not really expecting much: child actors/actresses don't do much for me and I've never been a big Jodie Foster fan. What a surprise I got! I loved this movie. It was good clean family entertainment that did not play down to kids. It was believeable, well-acted, enchanting ... and I could be stuck on s desert island with Gerard Butler for a LONG time and be very happy. Give it a try: I think you'll enjoy it.

Mis-leading
A well filmed, beautiful movie, with exceptional scenery and a great story line. But, i thought that it was going to be a tad more fantasy.

Nim's Island Review
Not as great as I was hoping.
Wanted to see more Island adventure.
Too much of the father and the
writer trying to get to the
Island.

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!
