    Very Cute.

    Even the voice of the Fresh Prince is charming enough to make a good movie great. Will is the man as a man turned into a bird. Tom Holland was pretty amazing too. For those of you who love his run as Spider-Man, there is enough of that inside this character to have you loving it. Also shout out to Ben Mendelssohn as the villain robot hand. Perfect for a 007 inspired feature. Also, very cool hearing DJ Khalid's voice coming out of a character called sound. Then the most important part, the animation itself which was quite amazing. They did some thangs that really captured my eye and fully helped pushed a great story. Overall, It's fantastic.

    When you take kids and 85% of the movie they're laughing you know it's on!!!

    I don't usually go watch animated movies - very rarely, but in light of the lack of new releases (at least interesting enough for me...) I decided to tag a long with the kids and watch this one... The first surprise was to see how busy the room was - on Christmas day - that was really a surprise, secondly although a very simple story, the fun is there and I kept on listening to the little ones sending some nice laughters and grown ups as well. Is definitely one with a message that spams generations but, will resonate a lot with the kids of this generation. Is fun, has a message, it's action packed and you know what, with a little more investment this one has the potential to have a part 2...

    Just watched it with kids and we loved it

    Just out of cinema - my two kids and I laughed a lot. Scenario is not very complex but it is a kid movie don't forget 😉 I find it refreshing to have a action comedy as a cartoon

    Pleasant Surprise

    This movie was way better than the mediocre reviews and unimpressive box office. Will Smith as always was charismatic as Lance, Tom Holland gave an endearing performance as Walter and the rest of the cast held this fun adventure together. There could easily be a sequel that would hopefully be better received. If you are looking for a fun animated adventure for the family, this is definitely worth a watch.

    Great for the whole family

    A fun story and funny characters make this film one that the whole family can enjoy. Be prepared to learn pigeon facts!

    • Trivia
      The hotel where Lance first tracks Kimura is a real place, the Blue Bay Hotel and Resort Grand Esmeralda, and it is really located in Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
    • Goofs
      Walter tells Lance that in precisely 42 seconds he will transform into a pigeon. The process actually takes 2 whole minutes.

      This is played for laughs and Walter himself is not exactly sure of what he is doing.
    • Quotes

      Lance Sterling: Walter, what did you do?

      Walter Beckett: Pigeons are everywhere, and nobody notices them! It's the most perfect form a spy can take!

      Lance Sterling: UNBIRD ME, RIGHT NOW!

      [Ursula, the female pigeon tries to cuddle with Lance]

      Lance Sterling: Stop, girl! Seriously!

    • Crazy credits
      The opening credits follow the style of James Bond films, by coming after a short opening scene, and having moving silhouettes.
