The story is about birders - those people who go out bird-watching with notebooks and binoculars. It has a very simple story line, and even shared some bird knowledge along the way. I enjoyed the movie! It received so-so ratings from the "film critics", but I rarely see eye-to-eye with them. Movie critics seem to throng to violence and loud noises and special effects. I lean more toward a happy story line and nobody getting bloodied. The Big Year is rated PG, and that was another good thing about it!
An interesting aside to this is that I can predict a rise in the birder interest after this movie has been out a few weeks. The actors make it seem pretty fun to travel hither & thither across the United States looking for bird species.
