Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A sweet-natured family adventure film that should be quite popular with the grade-school girls at which it's aimed.

Nim's Island is a win-win proposition: an entertaining, diverting adventure saga that offers excitement and a relatable heroine for children, and also will remind their parents of favorite classics from their own youth.

There's a lot to like about spunky Breslin, even when she's unnecessarily recapping events or recapitulating Home Alone as she chases caricatured cruise-ship tourists from her island. She's a charismatic, energetic presence at the heart of the film

fresh:
It's a wondrous and warmhearted adventure story with some nifty special effects and some first-rate performances.

fresh:
Foster proves adept at broad physical comedy, the animated sequences charm, and codirectors Mark Levin and Jennifer Flackett send up the make-believe Rover with panache.
