It is the 3rd time I watched this movie since I bought it about a year ago. It has always been a favorite comedy of mine. I watched this one because it is Mitch's 39th birthday that sends him into a mid-life crisis. And the trip is given to him for his birthday from his two friends. This movie is filled with laughs. I have a hard time believing this movie is almost 20yrs old. Though some of the jokes proves it so. Like trying to explain to his friend how to set up a VCR for recording. But even if some of the stuff is dated... it is still a lot of fun to watch.

Stars: Abigail Breslin as Nim Rusoe Jodie Foster as Alexandra Rover Gerard Butler as Jack Rusoe / Alex Rover Michael Carman as Captain Mark Brady as Purser Anthony Simcoe as First Mate Plot: WELCOME TO NIM'S ISLAND, a tropical paradise where imagination runs wild and adventure rules! ABIGAIL BRESLIN (Little Miss Sunshine), JODIE FOSTER and GERARD BUTLER shine in this fun, "exhilarating and enchanting family picture" (San Francisco Chronicle) based on Wendy Orr's beloved novel. Nim Rusoe (Breslin) lives on a deserted island with her scientist father Jack (Butler) and her best friends: Selkie, a sea lion; Fred, a bearded dragon lizard; and Galileo, a plucky pelican. But when Jack goes missing at sea and the island is "invaded," Nim reaches out via e-mail to the adventurous author (Foster) of her favorite books, and together, each discovers what it takes to truly become the hero of your own life story.

My Thoughts: This is the first time I watched this movie. It is a nice family movie.... geared a little more towards the kids then adults. But entertaining all the same. It was pretty predictable... as I had the movie basically figured out within the first 15 minutes. Even with that I enjoyed watching the story get there. Before putting this one on I asked Brittany if she wanted to watch it with me... but she turned me down. Said she saw the trailer and it really didn't interest her. I wish she would have given it a chance. I think she may have enjoyed it as well.My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (From Alphabet Marathon: The Unwatched Version on September 24th, 2011) Angel Marathon, a review by addicted2dvdAngel: Season 5 ![]() 6. The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco Original Air Date: 11/5/2003 Feeling disconnected from his real mission to be a hero for the people, Angel befriends an elderly mail clerk at the firm who was once a hero too and who feels the same way. Guest Stars: Danny Mora Bruno Gioiello My Thoughts: This one never really impressed me that much. Found it to be a bit slow and uninteresting. Probably one of my least favorite of any I have watched so far. My Rating: ![]() (From Angel Marathon on March 22nd, 2010) |
