Description

Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson form a comic dream team in this smart, funny comedy from the director of The Devil Wears Prada and Marley & Me. Looking to shake up their routine lives, three amateur bird watchers compete to become the ultimate “birder” by spotting the greatest number of species within a single calendar year. But the friendly rivalry soon turns into a hilariously complicated cross-country adventure as each man begins to realize that the quest for success comes at a price — and that’s not chicken feed!

    Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson form a comedy nightmare team in this stupid 'comedy' from the director of…. etc etc rented this movie on Apple-TV and watched about 20 minutes of it. I want my money and the 20 mins of my life back NOW! I don't think we laughed once (out of the whole family), I know even actors have to pay the bills but come on guys are you all really that hard up?

    Did people buy/rent this film on a whim? Yes it's about bird watching but so much more. Nice story, nice cast and nice film. It's not ground breaking but very enjoyable.
  • A film for nature lovers

    If you love nature and travel then this is a great film, very enjoyable, funny and meaningful. However, if like some of the reviewers you are after an out and out comedy then you will be disappointed. Watching this film with that knowledge, most viewers will undoubtedly find it entertaining. I rented this film, but will most likely buy it to have in my collection to watch on a rainy day.

    I'm not sure what these people are watching when they give it five stars but this is not worth buying or even renting. Use your time for anything else, and I mean anything.
  • Not a comedy

    Whilst not the best film any of these lead actors has been in and definitely not a laugh a minute comedy, I smiled and chuckled all the way through this enjoyable tale of friendship and dedication. My wife loved it!
