Rio is easily hands down the best animated film of this year at this point! Rio dazzles and delivers the goods for all viewers old and young. This is definately a film you must take your family to. After a year that brought us Rango and Hop it is a nice treat to see a family film that actually entertains the audience from start to finish.
Here is a quick plot summary;'Rio' is a 3-D animation feature from the makers of the 'Ice Age' films. Set in the magnificent city of Rio de Janeiro and the lush rainforest of Brazil, the comedy-adventure centers on Blu, a rare macaw who thinks he is the last of his kind. When Blu discovers there's another -- and that she's a she -- he leaves the comforts of his cage in small town Minnesota and heads to Rio. But it's far from love at first sight between the domesticated and flight-challenged Blu and the fiercely independent, high-flying female, Jewel. Unexpectedly thrown together, they embark on an adventure of a lifetime, where they learn about friendship, love, courage, and being open to life's many wonders. 'Rio' brings together a menagerie of vivid characters, a heart-warming story, colorful backdrops, energizing Latin and contemporary music, and family-friendly song and dance." source moviefone.com
This film is full with beautiful colors and scenery that make the animation all that much beautiful! The voice casting is spot on with Jesse Eisenberg starring as Blu and Anne Hathaway as Jewel. The supporting cast is even better and they recognize that by putting up the voice actors in the opening scene just so you know what voice to look for. Standing out of the pack are Will-I-Am and Jamie Foxx as Pedro and Nico that brought not only their voice talents but their musical ones as well! The villain in this film "Nigel the white bird" is also very fun to watch as well a character that leaves his footprint on this film and makes this movie that much more special. When the movie ended; the audience we watched the film with actually clapped for it! This is so special to see this happen because rarely films have such a responce from a audience after watching a film they like. Rio absolutely deserves the standing ovation!
Rating 4 out of 4 stars!!!!
