On Nim’s Island

Nim’s Island is probably one of the most enjoyable family movies that I have not seen for a long time. All of the characters a believable and the story builds up nicely around our main character, the young girl Abigail Breslin as Nim Rusoe. Jody Foster has one of her best roles ever since Silence of the Lambs. It’s nice to see her at a different type of role with lots of humor and warmth. This movies is not just for small children and their moms but can be enjoyed by the male audience too – as it has a good portion slapstick moments. I found myself laughing at Jodie Fosters antics and phobias. A truly enjoyable moment with her as an actor – and I think she must have loved this type of role as well. Let’s hope we can see her in more comedy movies like this. The pictures of the movie are cool, as well as funny animals, nice people and a happy story – what else you are expecting? I want to be on that island myself.
