      Audience Member Expected mumblecore... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member A really good script decently supported by a shoe-string budget that accomplishes the the spirit of the story if not it's full needs. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member The Variety rvw was right on...I saw a DVD screener of this movie and it was hilarious. Pithy dialogue, great acting, a handful of inventive shots & insights. Can't wait to see this on the big screen. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I thought the story was good enough, just horribly shot and even worse acting. I Hyped Let Them Chirp Awhile on Everhype and gave it 75% which I think is fairly accurate. http://www.everhype.com/hyper/mikeborgia?X=M767 I wouldn?t mind getting some opinions on it . If you get on there, rate me a 5 & request friendship. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Drew Toal Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Mark Olsen Los Angeles Times A movie where the only conception of life seems to come from other movies makes for no kind of movie at all. Rated: 2/5 Jan 5, 2009 Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post You would think that by now budding filmmakers would have given up on making a Woody Allen movie. Rated: 1.5/4 Dec 5, 2008 Full Review Sara Maria Vizcarrondo Boxoffice Magazine The film ends up feeling like even creative inspiration and apotheosis is hopeless because all that can ever emerge from these characters is derivative of some earlier work. When you look at it this way, Chirp can't help seeming like a time capsule... Rated: 2/5 Jan 5, 2009 Full Review Matt Pais Metromix.com The line between being pretentious and calling it out is awfully thin ... continually points a finger at obnoxious New York behavior while simultaneously perpetuating it. Rated: 2/5 Dec 11, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews
