doesn't matter if it's a year from now, 5 years from now or 10.

The Big Year is one of the best films of 2011. charming movie with 3 likable leads.

I saw it and walked out after 20 minutes. It was pain-stakingly boring. Seriously, who under the age of 85 wants to watch a movie about avid bird watching?

Nailed it. Who the hell thought this was worth blowing $40 million bucks on? Who thought a general audience would want to see a movie about bird watching? Why does Steve Martin look like Freddy Kruger? Jack Black is a bomb magnet unless he is a panda.

Don't try to cash in love, that check will always bounce.

I found it amusing too and much better than criticized. A bit like All About Steve with Bullock, a kind of goofy comedy that has value beyond first trashy look. I recommend it.
