Nimona's character is the best thing in the film and steals the focus from the first time she appears. Then no other character matters unless he's used as comic relief, not even Ballister.

"Nimona" lacks real conflict. The whole question is summarized in "I don't have any problem, it's society that is wrong." It is obvious what the correct answer is, no viewer will support society, not when you present it in such a simplistic and one-dimensional way. On top of that, the topic is something already quite hackneyed that has been discussed hundreds of times in recent years and apparently no one knows how to execute it in an organic and credible way. However, I appreciate that "Nimona" has something to tell even if it doesn't manage to tell it well.

The half-medieval, half-futuristic setting is dissonant and strange. It feels absurd, but seeing the tone in which the film works and the direction it takes, it seems like a conscious decision.

The jokes are great, at least for me. That's why the movie is entertaining even if it fails in many other aspects.

"Nimona" does not respect serious moments, it is as if it was afraid that the film was too serious for his audience. Every time something remotely strong happens, it's interrupted by comic relief. That kills the immersion and seriousness that the film tries to build.

The last conflict where Ballister has the fight with Nimona when he doubts her because of the piece of parchment that her boyfriend gives him... Terrible. How is it possible that all this time Nimona gives you to understand that society and everything in it must be questioned, but when they show a parchment all worn out that was in God knows where, drew it God knows who and talks about a time in the past when you were not born, you believe what it says and question the person who was helping you not die all this time? You more than anyone know that the director is the real villain of the matter, she said it herself, she herself tried to kill your boyfriend when she was confronted by him. Are you really going to question everything you saw and know with complete certainty because of a piece of paper? Teeeerrible execution, an attempt to create a simple conflict at the expense of the realism of your characters and your own narrative construction.
