Rio (2011) - There's a Party Over Here in Rio!

Rating: 9/10 (15 August 2011)

"Rio" tells the story about a macaw bird named Blu, who meets the only female macaw of his species, and they both set out on a hilarious journey through Rio de Janeiro. Along the way, they meet some friendly faces, some not-so-friendly faces, and some rocking hilarious faces. And each step of the movie leads to the moral of the story where to believe who you are on the inside, instead of the outside. Now, the moral to my review, "Rio" rocked the house. It's one of the most excellent animated features I have ever seen this year that contains everything thing I want to see. With a rocking soundtrack filled with incredible music that's just enjoying to listen or sing along to, and we receive the incredible sights and sounds of Rio de Janeiro that it makes us feel like we are part of the celebration. The movie was a well-written comedy, with fantastic animation provided to bring the sight and sound of "Rio" to life. But mostly, the brilliant voice talent of a casting ensemble to die for, was an excellent addition to this movie. With the talented voices of Jesse Eisenberg, Anne Hathaway, George Lopez, Jemaine Clement, Tracy Morgan, will.i.am, and Jamie Foxx. Like I said, the soundtrack is rocking, the sights and sounds are real, the acting is hilarious, and the movie comes up with so much hilarious elements, scene by scene. "Rio" is a whimsical, charming, hilarious, and excellent movie that I will cherish for a long time. "Rio", in my review, "an entertaining celebration, and the perfect family movie".
