Review: Perhaps one of the best films I have seen in a long time. Nicholas Nickleby
is an enjoyable tale filled with love, hardship, anger, revenge, and triumph for
the whole family. It may gear slightly towards older audiences because of its length
and pace. There is almost no objectionable material. |
