"Isiqithi seNimes" yinkcazelo yesikrini yincwadi kaWendy Orr, epapashwe ngo-2002. Abalawuli - indoda kunye nomfazi uJennifer Flackett kunye noMarko Levin babizwa ukuba babhale iskripthi sencwadi, baze batyelele kwisikrini.
Isalathisi sele sisithakazelisa ngokwayo-intombazana enomntu ogqithisayo. U-Nim uhlala engqinileyo kwisiqithi esishiyiweyo phakathi kweLwandle lwasePacific kunye noyise-oceanologist, engenazo iingxaki kwaye engazithethi nantoni (ubonisa ukuba yiyiphi imfuno eya kufuneka idluliselwe kuLobert Robinson Crusoe) . UBawo Nim, uJack Russo, ungomnye walabo baphengululi abaxhonyayo abancoma abantwana babo. Kodwa ukhathazeka ngakumbi malunga nokutsalwa kolutsha olutsha lwe-nanoplankton-akukho nto ngaphandle kokuba le nto yokutya yeminyango ayikhathaleli. Umama uNimes ngenye inhlanhla ngokwaneleyo ukuba abe lixhoba lenhlanzi elwandle, kuba uyise nentombi bahlala behlabelela bodwa ngasesiqhingini esisodwa.
Zonke iinyanga ezintathu i-steamer ifika kuzo zonke izinto eziyimfuneko kubemi abancinci. Abahlobo kuphela bakaNim apha ngu-Iguana Fred, ingonyama yolwandle uSelki, i-chiki i-Chiki kunye no-Galili. Ngethuba lakhe elikhululekileyo, intombazana yenza loo nto kwaye iyakhwela emasundu, ihlala kwi-intanethi kwaye ifundela ngeencwadi ngokuphathelele u-Alex Rovere ongumfanekiso-mfanekiso.
Emva kokuba i-father-oceanologist ishiya iintsuku ezithile ukukhangela uhlobo olutsha, ushiye intombazana enye. Xa kuqhutywa iqhushuphu yasePasifike, uNim uqala ukukhathazeka ngoyise. Ngokugqithiseleyo, wabhala u-Alex Rover, iqhawe lamanoveli, enikela ukuza kwisiqithi sakhe.
Inkqutyana encinane yefilimu ihlawulwa yinto efanelekileyo. Kwinqanaba lenqaku le-adventure talelin, u-Abigail Breslin onetalente, othe wadlala ngokugqithiseleyo kwi-"Little Miss Happiness". UGerard Butler, olahlekileyo omva emva "kwama-300 aseSpartans," wenza apha iindima ezimbini - uYise Nim noAlex Rover. Jodie Foster omncinane. Wadlala umbhali uAlexandra Rover, ehlupheka ngenxa ye-agoraphobia - kwiveki ngoku akazange akhuphe ngaphandle kwendlu. Kodwa wayedlala ngokungaqinisekanga - njani ingaba yinto efanelekileyo kwiiyure ezimbalwa zokuhlala kwilizwe elingaqhelekanga kwaye ufunde ukuhamba ngesiqhwithi? Ndonwabile ngonyama yolwandle (kwaye ndacinga ukuba itywina), njengombonakaliso we-circus kunye ne-pelican ehlakaniphile, encedisa iqhawe likaButler ngexesha elincinane. Kuyabonakala ukuba ixesha elichitha ixesha lokuqeqesha i-zoo ye-movie.
Enye yezinto ezigqwesileyo ze-movie yentsapho yayisisindo esivela ku-Oscar-esinqoba uPeter Doyle kunye ne-Hollywood Symphony Orchestra, eyakwazi ukubonisa umoya we siqithi esiyimfihlelo saseNîmes.
Umfanekiso waba ngumusa onobubele, kodwa akukho buqhetseba kwisalathisi, iindalini ezintathu zamabali zihlaselwa kunye kwaye ngezinye izihlandlo uqaphela ukuba nganye yale migca ayihambisani nelinye ixesha. Kwakungenakuqondakala kwaye umnqweno weButler udlale abalinganiswa ababini kanye kunye noJodie Foster azame ukuguqulela kwisikrini umntu oyikayo umbhali wonke.
"Isiqithi saseNimes" senzelwe abantwana, kwaye nangona i-humour, intombazana kunye nezilwanyana zakhe ezintle ezimnandi, ngokungathandabuzekiyo, zifana nabathandi abancinci beengoma zamhlanje.
