It's admirable in its restraint, gracefully swerving away from the most overwrought clichés in its path. At the same time, it's hard not to wish it would let itself fly a bit freer.

Movie Nation

Nothing in this is as fascinating as the falcon and what must be done to train her, and every detour included here was added to make the obvious and the inevitable direction the story turns in less obvious and seem less inevitable.

Rated: 2.5/4

The film might not be story-rich or revolutionary, but it's humane and empathetic.

Coming of age story is about more than just friends - though that is a huge part of it. The film also deals with cultural differences.
