Return to Nim's Island is a 2013 adventurous family movie directed by Brendan Maher and starring Bindi Irwin, daughter of the famous Australian zookeeper Steve Irwin. The film is a sequel to the 2008 movie Nim's Island, and although it has a new cast, it continues the story of Nim Rusoe and her exotic animal friends who live on a remote island in the South Pacific.

The movie opens with Nim (played by Bindi Irwin) now a teenager but still living on the island with her father, marine biologist Jack Rusoe. They are both worried about the island's future as a mining company is planning to buy it and exploit its natural resources. To make matters worse, a group of poachers is threatening the animals' safety, including Selkie, Nim's playful seal friend.

Nim is determined to protect the island, and she sets out to seek help from the one person who she thinks can assist her in her mission - the reclusive author Alexandra Rover. Alexandra is the author of the adventure books that Nim loves, and she has a reputation for being a bit of a recluse. However, as it turns out, Alexandra is not what Nim expected. She is now a teenager named Edmund (played by Toby Wallace), who inherited the name Alexandra Rover from his famous aunt.

Despite the initial resistance from Edmund, Nim convinces him to help her save the island from the mining company and the poachers. They soon discover that the poachers are aided by a group of criminals who are looking for treasure on the island, using the mining company as a cover-up.

Nim, Edmund, and Jack must work together to stop the poachers and the criminals from destroying the island and its inhabitants. Along the way, they encounter various obstacles, including dangerous wildlife, treacherous terrain, and a severe cyclone that threatens to destroy everything they have been working for.

Return to Nim's Island is a delightful family movie that combines adventure, comedy, and environmental awareness. The beautiful scenery of the island, the exotic animals, and the engaging performances of the cast are some of the strengths of the film.
