This is a really good movie, but for kids only. I don't think the movie is made for above 12 crowd. Jodie Foster and especially Abigail Breslin did good job in the movie.
This is a great movie. I have nothing to say against the movie. I think everyone can see it. I enjoyed every second of it. It is a very whimsical tale with a great heart. Jodi Foster is wonderful in this movie
Nim's Island can easily draw the attention of audiences for its wonderful story line , great acting and more so for its wonderful cinematography. One also can get stuffs like action , comedy at different juncture of the movie.
It has all the ingredients of a good movie . It is full with emotion , thrill and many more . After a long span of time I have watched such a wonderful movie.
i went with my 5 year old daughter to see nim's island and was really delighted to know that i did not have to bother about what is the next scene. the entire family enjoyed it thoroughly.this movie is full of excitement and fun.a great family movie and every family must watch it!
