Review of Rio

The setting of the movie is breathtaking, as it is based in the beautifully city of Rio de Janeiro. The movie starts off with a dazzling, display of colours and music, with wildlife putting up all manners of song and dance in the jungles of Brazil.

Jesse Eisenberg’s depiction of a nerdy domesticated bird, afraid to come out of his comfort zone is spot on, and keeps the viewers involved in Blu and his predicament.

Overall, the movie is more fast-paced and vibrant than the Ice Age series or Rango.

Rio theme based on the notion of believing in yourself and following one’s heart rather than the head.
