Critics Consensus: Despite good intentions, Nim's Island flounders under an implausible storyline, simplistic stock characters, and distracting product placement.

Reviews

Subculture Entertainment

David Griffiths

The film looks beautiful and the performances of Abigail Breslin and Jodie Foster easily overshadow some of the weaker performances of other cast members.

A terrific family adventure

In an era when so many kids' movies rely on special effects and flashy animation to grab an audience's attention an old-fashioned adventure like Nim's Island is a refreshing island breeze

Richard Propes

Merits a modest recommendation for its strong performances.

This film wants to be cute but is instead nauseatingly twee, and features what is by a great distance the weakest performance of Foster's career.
