What is good? (Ideally for kids AND adults)
What is absolute rubbish?
I saw Nim's Island yesterday with my 6 year old and it was pretty good.
Great to see a film with a girl and woman in the lead roles which doesn't rely on loads of explosions or antagonism.
Plus - very little prospect of knock-on merchandise.
I think two minor criticisms would be that:
a) Jodie Foster's agrophobia isn't really explained properly for kids.
b) Whilst the lack of explosions is welcome, the film is more about what bad things could happen than things actually happening. Which is probably more of an issue for adults than kids.
