Great year is probably the best film ever made about ... bird watching? Yes, you heard me right. Now there's an argument that should have lined up around the block, struggling to get Maybe I'm wrong. Many people pay a membership fee to join the Audubon Society. I am not one of them.
So we have this movie, see, directed by David Frankel, who directed The Devil Wears Prada, so you have the right to expect something special. Oh, Mona, how to break the news gently. It is not so bad as, well, there's not. I mean, it disappears faster than the yellow-chested bird feeder finch that is occupied by raccoons. In any case, these three men who have not reached maturity, chasing their dreams. They call themselves "birders" and the dream seems to be looking at birds through binoculars, tree limbs, tops, the ferry boat ... you name it, if it had feathers, you are watching. This is Stu (Steve Martin), high-powered businessman, CEO of money, fame and understanding wife, who is willing to throw everything he spent his working life watching birds, Kenny (Owen Wilson), an arrogant SOB and selfish
without responsibility and without loyalty to any person who forgives even his beautiful wife in the middle of sex to see a bird migration in Houston, Texas, and Brad (Jack Black), a loser pig that does not leave someone one or something behind, because he did not get a girl or a job first. Birders who moves away from their lives and families to spend 12 months for bird watching become part of a contest called "The Big Year." The goal is to see who can locate and identify as many bird species in North America. No cost, no reward, no money at the end of the pleasure of photographing a red-tailed hawk before anyone else does. Kenny is the defending champion who lie, cheat and double-cross of friendly rivals to keep his title, while others struggle to follow. The whole film is about how they destroy marriages, go on mergers and spend their savings on airline tickets.

In Brownsville landfill, Stu vulture places. Birding Kenny compares the compositions of Mozart. A woman attacked a crowd of birds birder because of its Bergdorf scarf was used to clean bird bait. ("Hitchcock" drawls the voice of Owen Wilson as a boiled owl.) And drag all infinity, paralyzed at the same rate. See the ink-footed geese in Boston. Catch the Flamingo in the Everglades. Des Moines in Yosemite National Park in Galveston, when the boys jumping boats, helicopters and rental cars. In the middle to set the oxygen bottle after his father suffers a heart attack an old man, Brad left everything to the airport and also to see one of the cams. OK, so as to follow their dream, but you do not like any of those shots when they do, and you do not learn anything new when it's over.
You will not see a lot of gnatcatchers, plovers, terns, grosbeaks, chickadees, teals, shrimp, yellow throat, sapsuckers, egrets, gulls, woodpeckers, and buckets, the soundtrack to play the song "I Like Birds". I found them immensely more attractive than people who pursue them. Steve Martin has isolated moments groped in vain to suppress some of the humor out of the film, which is only slightly less fun than in the case of bird flu, but he was ambitious for him to share the screen, and Jack Black, Owen Wilson, the two unsolved mysteries of the most annoying screen. Woody Allen knew exactly what to do with Wilson's weaknesses, take advantage of his voice and nenäluunsa irritant, which forms the exaggerated voice, that will remain lodged in his sinus cavity. Jimmy Stewart was the annoying sound too much, but he could act. I'm not sure anyone knows what to do with Jack Black. If they do, is a closely guarded secret.
