As for Neil Diamond's score, while I have enjoyed a number of his songs in his past, the songs and background music here are far from his best work. The movie's "messages" feel heavy handed. And all the dialogue the characters has feels random, like it's being made up as the movie is going along. The character of Jonathan is thin - we learn little about him, and he has less dialogue than you may think, despite being the central character. There are long stretches of the movie when the movie comes to a standstill, with endless shots of seagulls flying around and around.

But despite its good look, the movie is a bore, a chore to sit through. To be fair, the photography and camera-work in the movie are first rate, and the locations are well chosen as well. Seeing the movie, I can understand Bach's reaction. Bach actually sued screenwriter/producer/director Hall Bartlett for (among other things) supposedly distorting his story, so Bach probably demanded his name be taken off the project. If you examine the opening credits of the movie "Jonathan Livingston Seagull", you'll see that there is no mention of Richard Bach, who wrote the book that the movie is based on.
