A great children's movie

Rating: 9/10 (1 May 2011)

Rio is a very fun and energetic movie! Sure it has a predictable plot and some immature humor, but this is a movie for KIDS! And actually it is quite funny. There is some humor you can clearly see, and some only an OCD person like me found. The overall plot is predictable, yet there are smaller twists to keep you entertained. It is more appropriate for smaller children than Rango (another good movie). I also like how they portrayed smugglers in a negative light. I also like the voice actors. Good job! It never strays into the realm of being offensively stereotypical, and it shows some of the bad side of Rio. The animation is beautiful and smooth, and I found that hair and feathers were especially lovingly rendered. Please remember that this is a movie for fun, so don't walk into the theater expecting the next "Citizen Kane". Overall a great movie. So go see it! P.S. Go see it in 3D. The 3D effects look great and bring you into the movie. Need to fill more space space I'm in space Space? Space! Spaaaaaaaace! Dead space Solid Space Metal Gear Solid 3: Space eater
