MOVIE REVIEW: NANCY DREW

MOVIE REVIEW: NANCY DREW

     If you've followed this blog, you know I was a huge Nancy Drew fan when I was a tween. Because of this, and my husband's out of town on business, I decided to watch this movie on Netflix.  

   Once I got past the fact that this Nancy was at first presented as a little nerdy and out-of-step socially, I quite enjoyed the film. It's an updated version, and as such, relies on what's considered fun for this generation and the modern tweenie. 

     I think most young girls will enjoy the storyline and be able to identify with her personal challenges as well as the mystery itself.
