Flying Home
Colin, an ambitious young American businessman, has a deal with a potential client, a rich Arab sheikh who is a passionate pigeon fancier. The sheikh has tried several times to buy a champion pigeon, but the owner continues to stubbornly refuse his offer. In an attempt to gain the trust of the Sheikh, Colin offers him a deal: if he manages to convince the owner to sell the champion pigeon, the sheikh will agree to do business with Colin's company. But when Colin meets Jos, the grumpy owner of the pigeon, and Isabella, his granddaughter, he realizes that this mission will not be as easy as he had hoped.

To me, this movie is perfection.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Anyone with knowledge of the role Pigeoneers played in WWI and the history that pigeons played in Europe from transporting news to stock market quotes before the telegraph will enjoy this movie. Movie buffs who recall the 1940 movie "A Dispatch from Reuters" know what I mean. This of course will be missed by a lot of the younger generations.The scenes of Flanders Belgium are peaceful and charming. The acting is good. Jamie Dornan looked troubled throughout the movie, not happy being the cold-hearted businessman his father created, he becomes remorseful and takes a career destructive path to redemption. Charlotte De Bruyne has that European brightness and simple hometown charm that is perfect as a sweet girl from Flanders living with her grandfather.Make sure you use the subtitles on the DVD as some of the audio is Belgian.
I just watched this movie.I found myself binge watching The Fall and I quite enjoyed Jamie Dornan's performance there, so I decided to have a look at the rest of his work,after having watched FSOG.The movie was much better than I had expected,bearing in mind that the whole pigeon racing sounded a bit boring.It was corny I guess but again,you know that you are about to watch a romantic movie so many things can be excused I suppose.I found his performance decent and pretty acceptable and the way he coloured his characher proves that he definitely has acting skills.The photography was excellent,the rest of the cast was great as well so..If you are looking for an OK movie to spend your time and at the same time admire the looks of the main lead..there you have it!
Excellent Movie! Moving story!! Specially if you are animal lover or pigeon fancier. Depicts the true human and animal nature. Truly shows what power motivate all people and animals. Transcends over cut throat billion dollar corporate ladder climbing executives. Beautiful settings and correct character depiction of pigeon fanciers. There's nowhere else you could find a better place where true pigeon racing started but the heart of Belgium. The Pigeon Sport has grown to unbelievable magnitude but of people do not know about it. Very good moral story. Excellent acting too from everyone. James Dornan is better in this movie than 50 Shades of Gray.
I kind of liked the movie. Jamie Dornan was okay, but it wasn't his best. The Belgian actors were great, they really picked out the best ones. But their accents bothered me a little. (I'm not judging, I'm Belgian too). What did kind of bother me was that it was a little phony. You kind of knew what would happen and how it would end. It could have been cute if the film was a little more exciting. But nevertheless, I am proud of the Belgian director and those who all participated in this movie. It was surprising that they could find such a "famous' (American) actor for the film.All together, I would say watch this movie and see for yourself. Some people will like it more then I do, I am sure.
