Nancy Drew
Here we live a controversial story about a film director who plays an important role in solving a big issue. The story began when Nancy Drew, her teen-ager, accompanied her father on a business trip to Los Angeles during that fun trip. Nancy may be stymied by evidence of an unresolved crime that has long been associated with a film artist. There could be a number of complications .

I think a character like Nancy Drew can still work in today's pop culture world, but unfortunately the film doesn't believe in her enough.

Big-screen teen sleuth is cute, if a bit bland.

There's something very weird about Andrew Fleming's movie, perhaps because it's essentially The Black Dahlia for tweens, with kissing but without the sex or mutilation.

...younger people should find it entertaining, and the spoofing will not be a complete waste for many adults.

It's got a lot of fun energy, and it's got a certain kind of inspired loopiness that I found entertaining.

A great coming of age girl movie that prioritzes teen personality and brain power over female body appeal.

This Nancy is a throwback, but a charming one, and Roberts (Julia Roberts' niece) plays her with an irresistible sweetness.

It's one of the few tween movies that isn't in your face; its limpness becomes appealing.

For adults, there are some pleasures to be found here and there, but parents won't be blown away by it the way their daughters will.

I doubt if any female over the age of twelve would get much pleasure from the film.

Once the rote mystery elements take over, the film devolves into a second-rate whodunit for kids, but even then, Roberts' irrepressible cheeriness and curiosity in the face of danger proves too adorable to resist.

'Nancy Drew' still has a televisual feel - more 'Murder, She Wrote' than junior 'Marple'.
