Critics Consensus

Muddled, tedious, and uninspired, Songbird's gimmick never coalesces into a meaningful story about pandemic lockdown.

Jake Wilson

The Age (Australia)

As a comment on the actual pandemic, Songbird is highly equivocal: perhaps this too can be attributed to Bay, who packs his films with mixed messages.

Rated: 2/5

This Michael Bay-produced travesty exploits the coronavirus epidemic for thrills. That's right, for thrills.

Songbird isn't very good, which you might expect for something thrown together so quickly.

turn Piper into the protagonist. Moore as an anti-hero protagonist is a thrilling prospect. She is still gorgeous with a flint like hardness in her approach to everyone except her daughter

Radio Times

Director Adam Mason's dizzying camera sweeps and choppy editing upend what could have been a poignant drama.

If you're going to be so bold as to exploit a global issue, you should at least try to make it entertaining.

Inmune intenta llevar el miedo y la ansiedad de la pandemia del COVID-19 al terreno de la ciencia ficción distópica, pero termina siendo una broma de mal gusto. Con una trama que se esfuerza demasiado en ser relevante, se convierte en una parodia tonta y sin sentido de lo que el tema realmente merece. Los personajes son planos, las situaciones inverosímiles y la narrativa tan predecible que es casi dolorosa. Lejos de aportar una reflexión interesante o un ángulo novedoso, Inmune parece más una excusa para explotar el tema del COVID sin ninguna sensibilidad o creatividad real. Es un auténtico bodrio que hace perder el tiempo a cualquier espectador que busque algo más que clichés y sensacionalismo barato.

Overall, sure, I guess a film based on Covid was only a matter of time. At best, the film is a love story, but there's no character development or reason given for viewers to care. What's worse is the film is dull and highly forgettable with side characters who are pointless to the main plot. Sure, visually, it can be pleasing and the film has a semi-decent audio track, but this isn't enough to praise this film to anyone I know. With the majority of Australia in lockdown as I watched this film and wrote this review, it's impossible not to feel somewhat bugged a little. In the end, I feel it's doubtful Songbird would make someone's day better if watched today.
