      magic island legend

      Be your own master, be a hero to save yourself...

      Watching it with my classmates in the elective class feels very different.

      Eleven-year-old Nim Russo isn't the ordinary girl you'd normally see, she lives on a remote island with her scientist father, Jack, so she's never had the chance to meet anyone other than her father.
      Nim is never alone, though, as she has many adorable animal friends for company, and her favorite fairy tales, all of which make her life incredibly...

      Family Movies Worth Watching

      The English e-studio released the DVD download without subtitles. After reading the introduction, hurry down and watch it.
      Laughing, laughing, laughing, laughing from start to finish, I really like this kind of film, the plot doesn't matter, the key is to watch it in a good mood.
      Sunshine, beach, blue sea and blue sky, it's so comfortable, and U2---It's a Beautiful Day, I've been giggling for a long time after reading it (*^__^*) ... I
      like that little lizard the most, right ?...

      The world is beautiful with loli

      In fact, the only purpose of watching this movie is the little loli in it. Even Jodie Foster was directly ignored by me. After watching the movie, I thought, "The world where loli exists is really beautiful!"

      Nim's mother is a Videographer, she died in a shipwreck when Nim was very young, Nim's father was an oceanographer, he found an island that no one knew about and lived with Nim on the island, this is their island , and Nim, a girl who grew up on the island, also met several...

      Very warm after reading

      How should I say this is the best movie since I watched the millionaires in the slum in 2008.
      There is no deep connotation. It
      is the simple narrative method and a kind of warmth between people in the process of time passing. It's very comfortable,
      why must the plot twists and turns and those high-value special effects?
      The performance of the actors is in place, especially Judy Foster's fear of being away from home is
      really superb~~
      Haha , it is also directed at...

      How homely and simple. Since childhood, he has fantasized about living on an isolated island and living a self-sufficient life. The episode of "Priceless Treasure" landing on the island is good. This translation is really weak. so cool! I must marry a science student who has a skill in...

    The characteristics of the original work gave the adaptation of "Nim's Island" a lot of room for development and imagination. Relying on computer production technology, the film perfectly restores the fairy mirror-like scenery of Nim's Island. Although the whole of the film is just a family-style story that can guess the end by looking at the beginning, it does not mean that the film lacks visibility and highlights.
    In the setting of...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Nim Rusoe: My dad always told me stories about her- How she was this great oceanographer. Stories about the baby they had and how my mom just had to name her... Nim. She invented that name. At least that's how my dad tells the story. That's all my mother is to me now- just these stories. But they're really some amazing stories. Like the one he calls "The Oceanographer and the Great Blue Whale". Once upon a time, the oceanographer went out on the wide-open sea to find out what was in the stomach of the great blue whale. As my mother was staring into the mouth of of the whale, a mysterious ship came out of nowhere. It was called The Buccaneer Ship. It got much too close and it frightened the whale. And the oceanographer was swallowed and taken by the sea. Dad felt like we should sail the ocean and look for that blue whale - that someday, that whale would bring her back to us. I think he just missed her. We both did. By my fourth birthday, we had sailed around the globe... twice- From the Cape of Good Hope to the tip of Patagonia... from Singapore to the Cook Islands. Then one day, we found it- our home.

    • Alex Rover: You've been writing chapter 8 for three months now. So either sacrifice me to the damn volcano or let me find my escape already. Hey! It's time to finish the book!

      Alexandra Rover: Shh! I'm thinking.

      Alex Rover: Yeah. You're thinking. You're thinking. That's the problem. You've gotta get out of your head and into your body.

      Alexandra Rover: Hey. That's it. Kinka.

      Alex Rover: Kinka?

    • Nim Rusoe: Dear Alex Rover, I'm sure Jack would love to help you with your newest adventure. He's a great fan of yours. We both are. From... Nim.
