Separated from his family, a flightless plover chick embarks on a dangerous journey to save his loved ones from an evil falcon.

Guardian

A slapdash air of will-this-do? carelessness permeates the film.

Rated: 2/5

The Upcoming

In short, Flying the Nest is a feature that has far better animation than it deserves. While attempts are made to develop the movie's simplistic plot, its forgettable, band delivery prohibits the film from soaring.

Rated: 3/5

Bird searches for family in animated adventure; peril.

While the standard of animation seen here is quite strong - especially when conveying the natural splendour of the Icelandic landscape - the storytelling chugs along on autopilot, and the voice cast follow suit.

Its not a good movie but if you have older kids that like to laugh at bad movies it could be fun, Not to say it is inappropriate for little kids. May give you a headache though.
