Nim's Island Review

Nim's Island

Abigail Breslin heads up this superb cast which includes Veteran Jodie Foster and the handsome Gerard Butler.

Living secluded on an undiscovered island, Nim and her Scientist father enjoy their privacy.  While gone overnight in search of a new Protozoan, Jack (Gerard Butler) encounters a monsoon and is lost at sea.  Back on the island, Nim (Abigail Breslin) is holding down the fort and reading her new book about adventure hero, Alex Rover. 

At the same time in San Francisco, CA....Alex Rover, the Author, is stuck on the next installment of Alex Rover Adventure Hero's book.  In search of some information about volcanoes, she emails a scientist recognized in National Geographic who has written about living on an island with a volcano.  Guess who that Scientist is?  That's right...Jack, NIm's father!

Alex Rover begins sending emails to Jack and Nim reveals that she is an 11 year old girl alone on the island while her father is lost at sea.

Alex Rover sets out on an adventure of a lifetime and is on her way to rescue Nim.....

(That's enough...no more spoilers!)

My Viewpoint!
My family and I really enjoyed Nim's Island.  It was very imaginative and we loved being taken away from reality for an hour and a half.

It's very refreshing to find movies that are family-friendly, entertaining and has great acting.

When Nim's Islandcomes to DVD, I will definitely be buying it!!
