Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Prismark10 This Pixar short is only three minutes long and won an Oscar for best short animation.It has a simple message. Do not judge a book by its cover and might had been inspired by a Dr Seuss story,Some small birds are sitting on a telephone line when a large bird wants to join them. Thye make fun of him because he does not look like them and try to force him off the line. In short treat him like an outcast.The large bird gets the last laugh as his size means their feathers are more than ruffled.

sashank_kini-1 Maverick Pixar can do so many things in three minutes. It can present a contemporary view of the society- teeming with snobbish, truculent, neurotic, vindictive people or in this case birds who show no mercy to outcasts and unite to bring them down the wire the moment the outcast wants to be included in the society. Big birdie over here looks stupid and dim-witted to the bickering birds who are appalled at the sight of their new companion. However, it is big birdie who gets the last laugh.The wonderful thing about Pixar is that its films are dear to it. Therefore, FTB is referred to not only in Finding Nemo but also in Cars. And it's very well made short indeed. 8 out of 10.

Lee Eisenberg I remember that "For the Birds" preceded "Monsters Inc." in the theater. I laughed out loud as those ornithological dopes thought that they owned the world until the big guy unintentionally taught them a lesson! It just goes to show that Disney may have hit a big slump throughout the '80s and '90s - turning classical stories into overstuffed musicals - but their alliance with Pixar has produced some really neat work.All in all, this is one that you're sure to love. Among other things, it reminds us that birds are a most unique kind of animal (even when portrayed in cartoons). Really good.

olyfreak-1 I saw For the Birds when I first saw Monsters, Inc. in the theater. It was alright, but I don't think that the humor was the best part of it. For me, the complexity of the animation was what I enjoyed the most. The incredible detail of each individual feather had to (and did) take years to perfect. If you can look past the attempts to be funny, For the Birds was an excellent example of computer animation, and it deserved to win an Oscar for Best Short Animated Film.
