Review of The Song of the Birds

If you don't mind the ethical message and religious overtones thrown in your face, Song of the Birds has some really sweet stuff worth seeing. A young boy thrilled with his new gun shoots a baby bird. When the bird falls down dead, our dear boy is horrified with what he's done, and prays to God to make things right. I won't give away the oh-so hard to guess ending, but happiness abounds and a lesson is learned by all. Some might be turned off by the sappiness, but the animation is fantastic and the characters are all extraordinarily appealing.
