Despite good intentions, Nim's Island flounders under an implausible storyline, simplistic stock characters, and distracting product placement. Read critic reviews

Jan 03, 2012Despite the unbelievable storyline, Nim's Island is a cute movie aimed for children. More talking than actually going out for adventure.Sylvester K Super Reviewer

Nov 05, 2011There's not a lot of adventure in Nim's Island but there is a lot of character development and although it might be confusing for some, the acting and script just about save's it.Directors C Super Reviewer

Jul 24, 2011what makes nim's island so enjoyable is that it's funny with it's script, modest when it's not, and still adds a great look at family entertainment. B+Juan C Super Reviewer

Feb 20, 2011I didn't like the story-line at all. Talking animals; characters getting out of impossible situations; totally predictable. I saw it a second time a couple years later, softened my stand a bit and raised my rating by 1/2 a star. At least the plot kept moving.Red L Super Reviewer
