Love Birds
When it comes to love, sometimes all you need is a little duck.
Sometimes the best things in life happen on the fly. From the moment an injured duck crash-lands on Doug's roof, everything changes. Recently dumped and wallowing in self pity, Doug decides to nurse Pierre back to health with the assistance of an eccentric vet and bird specialist, Holly.

Either Rom-Com or NZ Faire
I've not been out of the US since it's all the rage to be all-inclusive and weep uncontrollably at the first sign of indignation. Is New Zealand held up by the DEI crowd? I don't know. Or, maybe regular, non-Lifetime movie rom-coms tend be be less focused on that. Who knows.
Love Birds is a straight-up cisgender rom-com full of all the required cliches that one needs to have in order to qualify as one. Damn cis and their normie families.
Joking aside, Love Birds was a surprise for me. Anyone who likes animals and a simple enough love story sprinkled with a little bit of humor needs to take a time out and watch this movie. It's a cute little love story about Doug and his duck and Holly. There you have it. Check it out.

I don't believe there is anything woke here. The casting diversity doesn't seem to be out of hand with the population ethnicity of New Zealand. The acting is great the humor is on point, well written and delivered. I found it one of the funnier movies I've seen in a while. It's a little on the cheesy side but it's a 2011 rom-com what do you expect. There is a nice balance where sometimes it goes right to the edge with a goofy scene but doesn't cross that line where it becomes to much and turns into stupidity (like a lot of modern comedies). A soundtrack mostly by Queen with an unexpectedly hilarious end credits sequence as a bonus to wrap it all up.
