Jeffrey M For the Birds was an amazing short. I watched it just now and it was really good. For the Birds was a interesting and funny movie. What a good movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Yes, this short film was funny and for once, it made sense to have it attached with Monsters Inc. which was Pixar's funniest film to date and while it offers more innovations in animation, the art style causes the outdated look to stand out more for me than in other earlier entries in Pixar's filmography, feature-length or short. It didn't really need to be attached with Monsters Inc. 3D since it's not like the conversion was noticeable (though I could say the same thing about the actual movie as well). Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member 'For the Birds' is an amazing film that is simple, imaginative, funny, and overall an extremely fun watch. Fun for the whole family! 🙂 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member An amazing Pixar short Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member this little short film is quite nice. some times pointless films can be great! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The message here may be muddled and a bit heavy-handed (I mean, the small birds wouldn't have fallen, if that goofy bird hadn't perched on the wire in the first place), but the film is really has more than meets the eye. The film is obviously about prejudice. It tells us that different doesn't necessarily equal inferior. That we should adapt to others who look different from us. And that sometimes we really need to be different. But I really liked the hidden message in this one, which is about tolerance. The goofy big bird is totally indifferent to all the rejection and harassment he gets from the small birds. I don't know whether he is tolerable, confident or simply naïve, but I liked how he insisted to stay among them despite everything. (8/10) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
