The plot of the movie "Strictly for the birds" is good but the dialogue and the acting leave a lot to be desired. The dialogues sound childish and they don't reflect a conversation among mature adults.
As for the actors' performances, in some sequences, they seem motionless, frozen, and emotionless. This is all the result of poor instructions by director Jon Garcia, for example, sometimes we feel that Kate Birdsall is absent and somehow lost in the scenes.
This family drama sometimes seems like a documentary feature as we hear Kate Birdsall's descriptive commentaries about his/her past throughout the movie.
