100Stays in the mind, changing the way we look at the world.
-
100By the end of the film, one begins to recognize specific birds, rooting for their safe returns and saddened by some of their failures.
-
80Absolutely breathtaking documentary whose close-up shots of birds in flight are so freakishly intimate that the film is compelled to open with the statement they're not special effects.
-
60Settles into pleasant monotony and repetition, without any narrative arc or purpose. Seasoned bird-watchers, however, may find that the sensory overload leaves them close to spiritual nirvana.
