FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Paul Evans I still cannot believe how lucky we are that ITV decided to bring our favourite Birds back, I was utterly devastated back in 1998 when it came to an end, an unpopular viewpoint I know but it felt like it had run its course. I was lucky enough to see the stage show, and the time was spot on for the return.The trio of leads are all equally as wonderful as one another, I utterly love all three equally.It's quite difficult to review the whole sitcom as a whole, as it does very much feel like to different shows, classic and new (That's how I'll class them.)I grew up with classic Birds, I can remember as a nine year old the first episode going out, and being in love with it ever since. For me it very much got going from Series 3 onwards, there were some outstanding episodes, and some utterly magical Christmas specials, including the brilliant It Happened in Hollywood. Favourite episode has to be Okey Cokey Karaoke, featuring the infamous Like a Virgin.As for new Birds I continue to be impressed, Series three has been brilliant, Dorien's funeral Carriage romp with (A sensationally handsome) Martin Kemp, and her fight with the Foxy Cohen drag act were very very funny.Brilliant series, just thanks for the laughs girls. 9/10

smck_82uk Birds of a feather was a great sitcom which is very underrated. It ran for 9 years & over 100 episodes yet only one DVD has been released so far. Best actress by far was Pauline Quirke whom was born to play Sharon (I disagree completely with the user above who says she was the worst) Linda & Lesley were also great Lesley especially in support. The best of 'Birds of a Feather' was the first 6 series with the original actors playing Darryl & Chris, their replacements are nowhere near as good (although Chris's replacement actyally played Chris first ironically). Classic episodes such as Dorien singing Madonna's 'Like a Virgin' & Sharon & Tracey going to LA thinking George Hamilton is a relative make this a show to remember & be watched by new generations.I hope the whole series is released to DVD soon!

Trent Nickson Birds of a Feather has just began airing on cable in Australia, so we're getting to see the series right from the beginning again - and it's just as funny as the first time around!Pauline Quirke and Linda Robson are two wonderful actresses that do a great job with the series. They noticably get better as the series progresses as they get more comfortable with their roles. They do a great job as sisters, and actually come across as being sisters as well!However, a lot of the real laughs come from Lesley Josephs character, Dorian Green. Recently an episode aired where Sharon (Pauline Quirke) got into the finals of a karaoke contest and got too nervous to sing. Her sister Tracy (Linda Robson) wasn't going to be singing either.To their surprise, Dorian gets up on stage and sings. Now Dorian is a complete man-eater, and the song she sang was Like a Virgin. It was the funniest thing I've seen in years - especially the part when all you can see are her legs above the crowd!The husbands are really quite linear and are always doing the same thing - they're really only there to keep the plot moving along at times.One of the best sitcoms to come out of Britain - and I hope it's put on DVD sometime soon!

makeajesting Words don't do 'Birds Of A Feather' justice...It was, and still is, one of the BBC's most successfully series for a reason...This series; originally started in 1989 and ran for nearly 10 years, saw wealthy housewife Tracey's seemingly legit husband Daryl sentenced to 12 years in prison for armed robbery along with her brother-in-law Chris...Tracey's council-estate sister Sharon Theodopolopoudos, (she married a Greek) moves into Tracey's million pound Chigwell home, seemingly to keep her sister company through the transition.Nothing to do with getting away from her Edmonton Tower Block of course.Birds Of A Feather is a sharply written, superbly acted, laugh-out-loud comedy, telling the story of these sisters' daily struggle to make-ends-meet and still be able to afford a night out on the razz.Life however is never dull in Chigwell, especially not with the addition of their nosy, snobby, sex-mad man-eater neighbour Dorien Green.Dorien constantly riles the girls' working-class background, never missing an opportunity to make an affectionate dig at their 'C&A' clothes and cockney accents.Even though these course prisoners wives are the best friends she's ever had.Over the course of the series' run, we see these characters not only become household names, but the actors, Pauline Quirke, Lesley Joseph and Linda Robson become stronger in their performances and abilities than you would ever have believed possible, leading them on to such remarkable performances as the terrifying 'The Sculptress' in which Pauline Quirke plays multiple serial killer Olive Martin.This series is truly in a league of its own.Words don't do it justice and I cannot recommend it highly enough.You'll laugh with them, and cry with them.With Shal, Trace and Dor; you'll enjoy the ride.
