Product Description:
Nancy Drew sets out for Hollywood to solve the death of an actress.
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

- This movie was Crap
This movie stunk and it was really bad. It was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I want my money back. This movie was total crap, a waste of money and I bought it on my birthday, too!

I seen the movie, it's really good.Emma Roberts did a good job in this movie.This movie is compared to Veronica Mars and Scooby Doo.Nancy Drew is like Velma Dinkley and Veronica Mars all at once.Emma Roberts has the greatest resemblance of Avril Lavigne and 90210 Shenae Grimes.

I enjoyed watching this movie with my kids so much, I bought a copy for an Aunt who is a collector of the Nancy Drew series.She also loved the movie!
Rating: - One of my favorite Emma Roberts movie
Like my title says this is one of my favorite movies done by Emma Roberts.It is a cute movie where she is portraying Nancy Drew.I didn't seem any earlier Nancy Drew - it was not in my generation. The movie is gear for young audience, but adults can enjoy this movie too. I recommend it.
Rating: - Good Clean Movie
Really enjoyed the plot. It goes along with the Nancy Drew Didj game. It was a very family oriented movie--kudos to the movie studio! I hope to see more Nancy Drew movies in the future.
