What are people expecting?

It's a solid Nancy Drew adaptation which is faithful to the books and is a great popcorn flick. The actresses have done a great job, especially Nancy herself . A family movie with a good message, I wouldn't mind watching a sequel.

Fmovies: I really wanted to like this as I thoroughly enjoyed reading the Nancy Drew books as a child. But I'm not liking how they're making Nancy Drew so childish. From what I recall, Nancy in the books is 19 years old. So I'm not sure why in the two film they've made now, she's being portrayed as a child. I think the main actress is very talented, she's a great actress, and story line was interesting, but the revelation ruined it for me, the supporting cast were not very good. It all just fell apart, and it's a shame. I'd like to see them do something with this character that's more along the lines of Veronica Mars. That's a closer depiction of Nancy Drew, and very well done as well.

I've watched this version and the one with the same title from the thirties back to back. Originally it was in the service of my history of mysteries, but neither qualify. Only this one is worthy of comment, because of the apparent excellence of the demographic engineering.

So many films suppress the cinematic and narrative experiments in the service of cultural capture. For a student of film it is a trade off because in ordinary film, where the qualities of film are exploited and sometimes extended, we are happy to accept stereotypes, tropes and genre conformity. But when the project is about seduction of identity, the stereotypes are up for experimentation. All else in the media is in support.

It isn't just the marvellous creation of this Nancy. I predict this actress will have a rich and much admired career. I thought the same of and early Heath Ledger when I saw him in a King Arthur project with similar goals and values. She not just shines, she understands emotional manipulation.

She's what you are supposed to look at. She's what you are supposed to see, but the heavy engineering has been done around her, in place and gang. Sure, this is Scooby mixed with the old mean girl redemption story. But look closer at how the camera stages groups. Look at the apparently different sets of the same hidden passage.

There's craft in this that deserves to be understood. Disney used to have a stable of experts that knew how to do this before the TeeVee production ethic killed it. Maybe we'll get it back. Because in film, I appreciate experimentation and evolution in any dimension.

Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase fmovies. Granted I've only watched 5 movies released in 2019 so far, but I liked it. What I liked is that this movie has fun. It dares to have its own personality.

The final act was formulaic but it still had funny moments and in the grand scheme of things it wasn't even that important.

The vibe of this movie is what I liked. The witty main character, the small town setting and the movie being light and family friendly.

My favorite movie of 2019 so far.

This is an enjoyable but often obvious and predictable film likely to be forgotten quickly. Sophia Lillis does a respectable job updating the character of Nancy Drew, and Linda Lavin elevates the entire film with every scene in which she appears. The rest of the cast is uneven. The haunted house manages to be creepy while still appropriate for young audiences. Both some of the teen girl empowerment material and the overall mystery frequently are handled with an obviousness some adults might find annoying.

It was a solid, fun movie, obviously geared toward young adults and does a great job being entertaining. The kind of stuff I used to watch mid-morning/afternoon as a kid. The actors were solid all the way around, the movie flowed well, and with the exception of the actress playing their "frenemy" Helen, all were close to being in the age range they were portraying. I liked all the performances ...the actress playing Nancy did a great job, but i think the casting director got Nancy Drew mixed up with Trixie Belden.
