Like someone has said before, the trailer made this movie seem interesting, but it was slow and a little boring. Jodie Foster was funny, but I found the dialoge poorly written.

I was disappointed in the movie, although maybe if you were of elementary school age you would like it a lot better. I didn't think the writing was very good and the animals were only mildly entertaining. The whole idea of Jodie Foster being afraid of leaving her apartment and then how she managed to reached Nim's Island was so far-fetched. I felt a lot more could have been done to improve the story. Wait for it to come out on rental.
