What to Know

Critics Consensus

Emma Roberts is bubbly and charming as Nancy Drew, the junior detective. But despite her best efforts, Nancy Drew still lacks excitement, surprise, and compelling secondary characters.

Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Joshua Rothkopf Time Out Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) 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. Oct 19, 2007 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz And despite clunky dialogue, sometimes lamentable support and an inexplicable cameo by Bruce Willis (as himself), Roberts remains unflappable throughout. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 15, 2023 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Granted that the film is targeting preteen girls, it still fails to find appeal even on that restrictive level. Rated: 5/10 Nov 27, 2020 Full Review Megan Basham WORLD As played by Emma Roberts, Nancy boasts a plucky self-assuredness that inspires rather than annoys. Oct 16, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
