Audience Reviews for The Sparrows: Nesting

Jul 30, 2015

Hercules! Hercules! Kevin Sorbo makes an eleventh hour cameo as a stolid preacher and surprisingly elevates the movie a bit. It's an amateur independent film that dares to be positive about family, friendship, loss, and class conflict (which is rare), so I'll cut it some slack, but every line of dialogue in this script is the textbook definition of how not to reveal exposition. Three-quarters of the movie is conflict-less set-up of contrived sibling rivalry, hunky-dory dad-talk, and symbiotic female friendship - all compulsively overscored by sitcommy music. The true inciting incident of cute-kid-turned-orphan doesn't arrive until the third act, thrusting the story into corny melodrama.
