Slow start

MAY

2008

Rented this as a video-too cheap for the theater....and was somewhat pleasantly surprised. As a Nancy Drew fan growing up, I was somewhat upset about how they fudged around with the book and its re-occuring characters, but for my 8 year old daughter, it was inspiring, and she was asking to get Nancy Drew books to read. Anything that encourages a child to pick up a book is good by me. The books were safe and clean fun, and the movie is in that same genre. Not academy award winning by any stretch, but a nice piece of entertainment-especially to be shared with kids. I kind of hope that they perhaps do some further adventures with Nancy, but not sure that it would be commercially feasible. It would be a great idea of Nickelodeon or perhaps Noggin to pick up on the idea for a series...Would certainly be a better choice than some of the stuff.
