Anything can happen on Nim's Island, a magical place ruled by a young girl's imagination. It is an existence that mirrors that of her favorite literary character, Alex Rover - the word's greatest adventurer. But Alexandra, author of the Rover books, leads a reclusive life in the big city. When Nim's father goes missing from the island, a twist of fate brings her together with Alexandra. Now they must draw courage from their fictional hero, Alex Rover, and find strength in one another to conquer Nim's Island. Based on the book by Wendy Orr and Kerry Millard.

CRITIC REVIEWS
LEW IRWIN
Many of the critics reviewing Nim's Island realize that most of the folks reading their reviews will never see the movie unless they're the parents of small children, so they set down the barest assessments. "Nim's Island is strictly for the 8-and-under crowd," Lou Lumenick writes, providing most parents with the information that they're looking for. Michael Sragow is a bit more specific, writing that kids "will find Nim's Island a stunningly empty experience." But Roger Moore in the Orlando Sentinel sums up: "All things considered, the movie does a good enough job of filling that void of kid films between cartoons and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants."
