If you do not have a certain type of humor, you will not enjoy this film. It asks for a slightly well read and historically inclined audience, that lets face it, is not the general populace. I found it hilarious that so many nuggets from modern times were so seamlessly (and very cleverly) slipped into the script. Overall this is a great film about birdwatching (you will get the joke if you pay attention).

Im not sure why it received such a negative reception, rather than perhaps the timing of the film release? The acting is superb and quirky. Taylor Swift gets killed off early, so if you can get past the bad acting in the first few minutes, you will be set for the rest of the film.

I do hope that despite financial losses they release a follow up film on WWII, just for the sake of the art. This film is art, not just commercial.
