SunnyHello Nice effects though.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
MartinHafer This is a short film that can be seen on a DVD of award-winning shorts from around the world from the Film Movement Series. For several years now, Film Movement has been bringing out a yearly compilation of shorts in place of their usual monthly feature film release. This is from the January, 2008 collection.The film begins with a group of birds flying south to Dakar for the Winter. However, our main character is unable to fly well enough to get there, so he goes to a doctor. I liked that the doctor's office was run like a state run health office and I also liked that one of the many bird patients was a bear in disguise. The doctor approves the cost of air fare to Dakar and we see our intrepid bird on his way to his Winter paradise--except that the plane ends up going to Southern France by way of practically every conceivable stop and becomes a funny commentary on bureaucracy.This is a short cartoon from France. However, despite being a cartoon, it really isn't for little kids as there are some condom references that just wouldn't be appropriate for a younger audience. The story is very odd and the animation quality is rather low, but somehow despite all this, it's an engaging little film with a cute ending (which I won't reveal).
