Fly Away Home Blu-ray Review

A heartwarming family film takes wing in 1080p with solid picture and sound quality.

Reviewed by Greg Maltz, April 7, 2009



Fly Away Home is one of those rare movies that strips away pretenses and armor, piercing right to the heart. It delivers a wholesome message for children, teens and adults alike with a lively story and good acting and production values. The film is a winner for Blu-ray release, boasting fantastic photography both from the air and the ground. Fly Away Home is an adventurous, active journey that focuses on a teenage girl's extraordinary efforts to rescue a family of geese against all the odds stacked against her. It rises above the typical family drama and into territory that can only be called inspired. The performances are solid, the story is heartwarming and the picture and sound quality are above average.

Don't know for sure. But I'm certain he was in that scene, however briefly.

And, you're welcome.

Made me cry for missing my father. I still have the lyrics to one of the songs in the film written down...
