Rio (2011)

Rating: 4/10 (13 December 2011)

Bright colors aside, I found little to truly enjoy about this movie. Rio centers upon a bird that must have a lot of sex to bring his species back from extinction. But he's a house pet and his suggested mate is wild. He is pampered and nervous, and she's a bird of the world. How will these two ever get along? They are joined by a wild and crazy cast (annoying), of comedic (loud) animals. I wasn't engaged by the plot, I didn't laugh at the jokes, and the only highlight was Jermaine Clement, who obviously got a chance to do some of his own stuff with his highlight song. Any movie with George Lopez and Tracy Morgan should come with a warning attached to it.
