Birds gone wild

Rio sounds like a typical animated flick with that one word catchy tune with an almost predictable story. Yet coming in i certainly knew what to expect and what would the outcome be but then it completely blew me away with a whole new different perspective of it. It somewhat feels like everything is ordinary, even the trailer almost gives everything away but after all was said and done i was pleasantly surprise with the outcome. I almost felt like i was watching a disney flick with a modern exotic flavor since it set on Brazil. At the first few minutes i thought it would be a disaster since the main character literally sounded like a facebook nerd bird with not so funny lines to deliver but then when the sights change i was mesmerize by what brazil has to offer. Not the just the scenery but the quirky characters as well which brought the all needed colors of movie. Typical jessie eisenberg was present through out and i'm quite surprise he and anne hathaway got along good. the supporting cast was extremely crazy with the likes of will.i.am and jamie fox and the ever wacky tracy morgan. Even the villain was charismatically devious, i like it. There are a lot more to be said but i'm glad i said even a piece of what joy this movie brought to me
