Product Description
Join Emma Roberts as Nancy in this timeless girl detective mystery as she finds danger, adventure and romance. Because wherever Nancy goes, excitement follows.
Amazon.com
Nancy Drew is an iconic girl detective created by Carolyn Keene with a passion for mystery and all things old. The small-town Nancy Drew (played by Julia Roberts' niece Emma Roberts) is about to experience a serious case of culture shock as she heads to Hollywood on an extended business trip with her father Carson Drew (Tate Donovan) and prepares to join the 21st century (well, sort of) at Hollywood High. Having promised her father that she'll give up sleuthing in favor of becoming a "normal" teenager, Nancy tries her best to resist the lure of the age-old mystery of famous actress Dehlia Draycott's (Laura Harring) death, but living in Dehlia's old booby-trapped mansion full of clues proves too powerful a force for Nancy to resist. Feeling completely out of place with high school peers who prove self-absorbed and obsessed with fashion, Nancy makes an unlikely friend in 12-year-old Corky (Josh Flitter), the brother of one of the meanest girls at school. Hormones and hero worship land Corky right in the middle of Nancy's dangerous detective work and inspire some good old-fashioned jealousy when Nancy's close friend Ned (Max Thieriot) visits from River Heights. Nancy's deductive skills are as sharp as ever, and her inspired detective work will profoundly impact the lives of complete stranger Jane Brighton (Rachael Leigh Cook), her own father, and a host of others. Offering a faster pace for modern audiences than the classic Nancy Drew films, this 2007 movie is sure to enthrall a whole new generation of tweens and teens while simultaneously living up to their parents' expectations. Rated PG for mild violence, thematic material, and brief language. --Tami Horiuchi

My 8-yr-old watched this movie DOZENS of times in the first week we owned it! January 29, 2010

My 8-yr-old recently discovered Nancy Drew and loves her! She's a bit too young to fully comprehend the book series (she has no trouble reading the books but doesn't yet completely grasp the big picture of what she's reading) so we recently rented (and then purchased) the Nancy Drew movie. The outcome? She LOVED it. Literally watched it a dozen times in the first week we got it! Nice family fun movie! You can read some of the other reviews for details on the characters but all in all even I enjoyed this movie more than I thought I would! Highly recommended.

I liked this movie very much. It is an interesting story and one you can't guess the end. Lots of fun. The young woman who plays Nancy Drew is very believable as her character. I bought this for my granddaughters.

As a Nancy Drew fan since about the age of 8, I had a lot of expectations for this movie. Some things were just out of sync- take the age of the characters. Nancy Drew is out of high school in the books. Ned is in college in the books. The main characters for the movie, have been made younger. (Nancy's hair is reddish blonde in the books- not red.)
New Nancy Drew still drives her classic blue roadster. Her clothes are more from the books, so she stands out. She is very smart and is a great detective. Some parts of the movie are very unbelievable, but all in all it is a family friendly movie. My nephews both enjoyed it.
I would rate it a 3 1/2 stars.

From the first time I saw this little movie on TV, I wanted to see it again. The characters have great chemistry and I love Miss Roberts as Nancy Drew! I only hope this becomes a series...I know the actress will soon be too old, but one can only hope! By the way, I am nearing 60 years of age and watch this alone as well as with my granddaughter.
