Bird People is a slow moving film that will test one’s patience where scenes tend to drag on but the performances are all pretty good and on that front, it at least has some redeeming value, but little else. The DVD released by MPI doesn’t have much to offer with a mere trailer and standard video/audio transfers.

PLOT SYNOPSIS
In an airport hotel on the outskirts of Paris, a Silicon Valley engineer (JOSH CHARLES) abruptly quits his job, breaks up with his wife (RADHA MITCHELL), and isolates himself in his room. But as fate draws him and a young French maid (ANAIS DEMOUSTIER) together, he may just discover the unexpected shakeup his life so desperately needed.
SPECIAL FEATURES – 0.5/5
The only feature included is the trailer (1:38).
VIDEO – 4.0/5 | AUDIO – 3.0/5
Bird People flocks onto standard-def DVD presented with an anamorphic widescreen 1.85 aspect ratio and mostly look good deviating from bright daytime colors to darker tones either at night or inside the hotel.
The movie comes with a regular old Dolby Digital 5.1 track which is serviceable but is center channel heavy with minor elements, such as ambient noises, for the front and rear speakers.
OVERALL – 2.5/5
Overall, Bird People is a slow moving film that will test one’s patience where scenes tend to drag on but the performances are all pretty good and on that front, it at least has some redeeming value, but little else. The DVD released by MPI doesn’t have much to offer with a mere trailer and standard video/audio transfers.
