	The best part of this movie was the first 5 minutes, it went down hill after. I walked out after roughly 1 hour, for I had enough. The premise was promising, the acting very, very disappointing. I obviously expected far better from Jodie Foster, who seems to be facing a late life crisis as I cannot fathom any other reason for her to stoop so low as to attempt to depict herself as Kathleen Turner's character of Joan Wilder (Romancing the Stone) And so if this is suppose to be a children's movie, what values are we promoting exactly (not to mention anything about parenting skills): for starters, have no respect for wildlife (catapult lizards, they'll be O. K.), go climb cliffs alone without proper equipement or technique, life on a deserted island is O. K. because you'll have your cell phone and computer, and daddy will take off for a few days... and my favorite, its O. K. to chat with perfect strangers on the internet and let them know you're an 11 year old girl all alone. And what would Hannibal Lechter think of Jodie Foster now? Would he find her rude? She trivializes people that have psychiatric disorders, such as agarophobia. After all, agarophobic Jodie Foster was able to get out of her house and go halfway across the world in less than an hour to rescue a poor lone 11 year (fortunately not in Thailand) that she met on the internet. I recommend this movie for everybody that dreamed about Home Alone on Fantasy Island and tarts that enjoy phoney brit/aussie accents and a happy ending. (4/10)
