NIM'S ISLAND: Abigail Breslin stars as a girl who reaches out to her favorite author (Jodie Foster) when her marine-biologist dad (Gerard Butler) goes missing from the tropical island they live on. The movie does a good enough job of filling that void of kid films between cartoons and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Directed by Jennifer Flackett and Mark Levin.

THE COUNTERFEITERS: Best-foreign-language-film Oscar winner demonstrates that no matter how many Holocaust stories the movies tell, there are always new and unexpected ones waiting to be revealed. Based loosely on real events, it deals with a Nazi plot to counterfeit British pounds and American dollars on such a massive scale as to destroy the economies of both countries. Starring Karl Markovics, August Diehl and Devid Striesow. Directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky.
