fresh:
Though you could fit its story on the head of a pin, "A Bird of the Air" is a gently involving character dramedy with a pair of appealing leads who help give this offbeat movie flight.

At its most entertaining when the parrot does the talking.

rotten:
An offbeat romance fueled by pets and pithy aphorisms.

rotten:
Its lethargic plotting and quirky affectation are -- wait for it -- strictly for the birds.

rotten:
Not a bad premise, but first-time director Margaret Whitton fails to temper the sappiness with real human crustiness.
