The story is about a macaw from Minnesota, pampered and nerdy, finds himself learning to become a true bird of paradise when he finds himself in Rio de Janeiro. This movie has beautiful animation and enjoyable songs.

Starts right off with a beautiful song, bam! I never felt so worried with a character so quickly, not joking, took only two minutes. I wonder how the made birds become the most adorable and lovable creatures in the world. So, the movie is all colorful and bright, we all know what Pixar does, but they exceeded my expectations this time. The characters and plot have a certain complexity for a family movie, that's a great thing. Even though n this kind of movie we all know what course it will take, they made it very good. Perfect timming on character presentation/development, beautiful enviroment, a fun and delightful movie. When it ended I just felt really happy.

A blue macaw is sent to Rio de Janeiro to meet a female bird of his kind. They are the last two of their specie and now they have to breed. But a supposed enjoyable trip turns the other way around as some other guys got interest of the two birds- plus Blu, the male bird, cannot fly. *** I wasn't expecting much, and yes, I saw not that much. This animation is averagely awesome, and averagely enjoyable. Over-all colors and graphics, not bad. The sound, music, voices are only saved by good songs. The story complicates the over-all direction of the film. An "okay" film.

This film was cool enough. its humour may be lame at some points but the plot is awesome. It was totally different from the boring film I expected it to be.

More of a kids animated film. The animated visuals are beautiful and there are some stunning shots, but the manic pace of the film, the often lameness of the humor, and the poorman's Black Eyed Peas song in the middle lower this far beyond, say, any Pixar film.

It is very bright and colorful. But the celebrity voices are mostly distracting-except for Jermaine Clement's awesome villain song.
