Description

While three friends compete to see who can observe the most bird species in North America. Bird Watchers aren't generally so competitive but this trio take on challenges just for the fun of it and the opportunity to "one up" each other. In the meantime viewers can see some great scenery and learn, at least a little, about birds and bird watching. teve Martin is having a late in life crisis while Owen Wilson and Jack Black each have mid life crisis issues or no life at all issues so each has their own demons to face when they come to a crossroads in their lives. Stu (Steve Martin from Grand Canyon, L.A. Story) is the most dedicated of bird watchers and makes this competition bigger than it needs to be. Jack Black (Gulliver's Travels, Tropic Thunder) is Brad Harris, who should be voted most likely to succeed in his no life crisis. Owen Wilson (Zoolander, Marley & Me) has his own demons to fight with his mid life crisis problems. Also look for the very talented Rashida Jones as Carol and Anjelica Huston as Debi Shearwater.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

Think of Prom as High School Musical with heavy doses of teen-aged angst. Summarizing Prom in frighteningly reductive terms, Disney says, "A group of teenagers get ready for their high school prom," and the producers list it simultaneously as "comedy" and "drama." If you read only that description, you easily could conclude Prom dramatizes debutantes' struggles with mascara and up-dos. To her everlasting credit, Aimee Teegarden, veteran of heavy high school drama in "Friday Night Lights," goes a long way toward redeeming Prom from its awkward identity crisis. With a properly delicate and ironic touch, Ms. Teegarden effectively captures every sophisticated senior's inchoate recognition that "valedictory" means farewell and "commencement" is a synonym for "see ya." "Nova, Ms. Teegarden's allegorically named character, recognizes her pet antagonist probably is the ideal prom date, heavy on the fun factor and devoted to keeping rented tuxedos and poofy dresses in perspective. The unlikely pair contrasts sharply with Mei and Tyler, swept-away sweethearts, who wrestle with conscience and logistics as they work to wring every last micro-gram of meaning and romance from "the biggest night of their lives.""Set for release the last weekend of April, 2011, Prom may or may not set the tone for the Class of 2011's dining and dancing extravaganzas, but it surely will provide invaluable fashion and etiquette tips.
