Plot
"A group of men who are obsessed with birdwatching set on the quest to outdo each other by finding the most species of birds in North America. Their competition is allegory to the challenges faced in their lives."

Aren't Owen Wilson's clothes too bright and colorful for a birdwatcher?

Anyway, more details about the movie The Big Year soon.
