Seen on Monday.
A very good movie about the everyday fight for courage for everyone - young and young at heart.
Can't remember having seen Jodie Foster in a funny movie and she's is in that genre as great as always.
She plays the author Alexandra Rover who writes the adventures of 'Alex Rover' (Gerard Butler) - a male adventurer in the kind of Indiana Jones - who is Nim's greatest hero.
Nim (Abigail Breslin) and her father Jack (Gerard Butler) - a marine biologist - live on a secret Island. When Jack is missing on the open sea Nim gets an email from Alexandra about the volcano on the island with the sender name Alex Rover. Nim is totally beside herself with joy and climbs up the volcano to get the information Alex requested. As the volcano starts shaking she hurts her leg on the way down. Bad luck continues as she sees 'pirates' landing on the island.
Nim begs Alex - who is in real life just a coward - to come to the island and help her. Alex starts the odyssey of her lifetime.
The movie is fun and suspense from the start to the ending. Slapstick and sweet and funny animals keep you smiling all the time.
I really liked it!
