Songbird Reviews
turn Piper into the protagonist. Moore as an anti-hero protagonist is a thrilling prospect. She is still gorgeous with a flint like hardness in her approach to everyone except her daughter

Director Adam Mason's dizzying camera sweeps and choppy editing upend what could have been a poignant drama.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 2, 2024
If you're going to be so bold as to exploit a global issue, you should at least try to make it entertaining.
| Original Score: 3/10 | May 17, 2022
The fun is few and far between, and the film is simply a dud.
| Original Score: 1 / 5 | Jun 26, 2021
Songbird only really makes sense as low-budget exploitation, like an old made-for-온라인카지노추천 movie ripped from the headlines.

Derivative, dull and has a plot that's so stale it really should also feature a tornado full of sharks, too.

Songbird is very much a film of two-halves, neither of which are particularly any good.
| Original Score: 2/5 | May 28, 2021
As a comment on the actual pandemic, Songbird is highly equivocal: perhaps this too can be attributed to Bay, who packs his films with mixed messages.
| Original Score: 2/5 | May 21, 2021
The second obstacle that Songbird stumbles over is the fact that the future it depicts feels increasingly unrealistic each day...

Songbird wastes its potential. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 25, 2021
For those not inclined toward dystopian extremes, Songbird is a crass reminder of the real-life death, sickness, unemployment and heartache COVID has wrought. It feels tone deaf, and worse, it's a bad movie.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 29, 2021
"The tension is flatlined from start to finish, the story is a gross misunderstanding of timing and its script is generally underwritten, resulting in arguably the worst film of 2020."
| Original Score: 1.5/10 | Jan 22, 2021
So much of it is melodramatic music, and no one is saying anything important...whatever message it was trying to deliver gets abandoned for a super-thin action plot that goes nowhere.

A PANDEMIC movie?! You knew this was stupid the minute you saw the trailer for it. Such a stupid movie.
| Jan 20, 2021
Songbird is a missed opportunity its own right as it isn't much good but its bigger problem is that it can't help leaving a sour taste because it's based on a situation that has caused genuine grief and despair to hundreds of thousands of people.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 13, 2021
This movie isn't going to make anyone feel better...because it's lame.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 28, 2020
The source of this terrible film is the schlocky producer Michael Bay.
| Original Score: D | Dec 27, 2020
An appalling melange of insipid disaster drama and implausible romance with a bit of dystopian satire thrown in. This is a crass cash-in meant to prey on our pandemic anxieties, not grapple with them.
| Original Score: 0/5 | Dec 23, 2020
There's certainly something to say about a film's timing, and Songbird misses what should be obvious-don't release a film about an apocalyptic pandemic to an audience currently in the middle of one.
| Dec 21, 2020
Being a ragged piece of work cobbled together during Covid restrictions (with Demi Moore its biggest name), it needs all the vim it can get, but its ideas don't provide much.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 21, 2020
