| | "Nicholas Nickleby" / a review from Christian Spotlight on the Movies |
 | | As with the novel and 1947 film adaptation, the new Nicholas Nickleby begins with the passing away of Nicholas Nickleby Sr., who states in his will that his daughter, Kate (Romola Garai), his son, Nicholas Jr., and his wife be cared for by his brother, Ralph (Christopher Plummer). |
 | | While it's not expounded upon where Nicholas and his family base their goodness, the fact that they are godly and live by righteous standards should be an encouragement to believers. |
 | | Also, there are interesting moments when Nicholas is hurting or in need of help and he calls on his "father." Actor Charlie Hunnam who played Nicholas, said in an interview that the way he chose to play these addresses to "father" were aimed toward Nicholas Nickleby Sr., who had just passed away. |
