Comments:
This movie remind me of home alone, the identical scene where Nim is alone in the remote island and must protect her island of strangers. Overall, there is nothing much we can expect in the movie. The imagination that they say Nim has is also not very dominating, and at first it will be like Pan's Labyrinth whereas the imagination of the role character is focus on. Adult may be bored in first 30 minutes, but this is a family drama, and it is completely safe to bring your children to see the movie.
