Comments on Movie: Free Birds (2013)

"Not only rediscovers the giddy joy of being truly silly, it's confident enough to make us laugh without resorting to regurgitated pop-culture references or grownup double-entendres." - Katherine Monk, Canada.com.

"After a brief lesson in American history, British kids will probably have a fine time. And there's just enough double-edged comedy to keep grown-ups from squawking too." - Andy Lea, Daily Star.

"There are some good gags, the cast is incredibly likable and, most importantly, it held my kids' attention the entire time." - Mathew DeKinder, Suburban Journals of St. Louis.

"The film does boast an appealing buddy pairing in Wilson and Harrelson, a dash of conceptual originality, and some genuinely funny jokes." - Tara Brady, Irish Times.

"Watch this with a light heart, it's actually a very funny movie with plenty of gags" - Rosalyn Lim.

Favorite Movie Character

Daddy, it's this one!

I do not know what's her name and although she's just a minor character, this daughter of the fictional President of the United States is actually quite friendly! Although she gets tired and falls asleep pretty fast, she has nonetheless saved Reggie's life, making him the pardoned turkey! 

Even though the ending of the movie is a little vague, indirectly, this also means she has saved the turkeys off the menu right? Since she saved Reggie and from there he gets to watch tv and eat pizza?!
