Nim's Island (2008)
Foster's Film
27 August 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Somewhere in this silly mess is a great film about Jodie Foster's character an agoraphobic adventure story writer with delusional psychosis who overcomes her fears to come to the aid of an eleven year old girl alone on an island in the south pacific. Unfortunately the movie loses its way in trying to appeal to the Disney Channel movie crowd with flying lizards, cartoonish tourists and all too precocious animal friends.

The stupidity of the movie can be summed up by Nim's dialogue: "Whoa, did I do that?" (spoken when she knocks over a boulder and presumably sets off a small scale volcanic eruption) You can hear the slide whistle.
