Free Birds is the story about Reggie...an outcast of a turkey who is being raised on a farm but is the only one who knows why he and all his other turkey friends are there. When the other turkeys eventually realise what's going on, Reggie still manages to become the main menu item. However, as a quirk of fate, Reggie is picked out by the President to become the Pardoned Turkey. Living the life of riley at the White House, Reggie meets Jake...the (only) member of the Turkeys Liberation Front who's on a mission to go back in time and stop turkey's becoming the item of choice for Thanksgiving Dinner and Reggie is Jakes unwilling Liberation partner. Soon, Reggie & Jake find themselves going back in time and get caught up in the middle of a turkey clan's fight for survival all while trying to avoid becoming dinner themselves.
Free Birds is another cracker of a movie from DreamWorks and is a movie that the whole family will enjoy. I've read reviews of people complaining about the storyline and that the idea of turkeys going back in time is ridiculous. I've got news for all you moaners...it's an animated movie! Get over it! Is it any more ridiculous than a snail racing in the Indy 500, or a scientist who makes it rain food? Animated movies aren't restricted to "rules" and are supposed to be fun, which is exactly what Free Birds is.
There are a lot of good funny moments in this movie including Jenny's droopy eye (the timing of which is done masterfully), the constant contests between Jake & Ranger, and the few in-jokes the movie has (the Angry Birds reference for one) as well. The animation - as we have come to expect from animated movies these days - is superb and is crystal clear in Blu-ray and the cast do a fantastic job with their characters.
I could go on, but I'll just end by saying that Free Birds is a great movie and is very much recommended, so ignore the ridiculous hate and give it a shot.
