Washington Post - Ann Hornaday
Manages to navigate the era of cellphones and Mean Girls with retro nostalgia and wholesomeness, making it a rare girl-powered outing for tweens in an otherwise guy-centric summer.

Chicago Tribune - Michael Phillips
Nice. The film itself is more nice than good, but nice isn't the worst trait.

Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
The culprit, I'd say, is the uninteresting casting of Miss Roberts in the title role. She's a pleasant enough performer, but her made-for-teen-TV acting style, a perky blandness, doesn't supply a clue as to the appeal of Nancy Drew after all these years.

The Hollywood Reporter - Sheri Linden
The culture-clash procedural, which brings the small-town teen to big bad Hollywood, feels more perfunctory than inspired.

Village Voice - J. Hoberman
This tweener goddess--a virtual Batcave of handy accessories packed in her shoulder bag--may prove too annoying for general audiences, particularly as Roberts plays her comically straight.
