Rio was able to accomplish a pretty impressive feat: This is the best non-Pixar animated film since
Shrek. I often find myself finding kids films to be too bland or unfunny to enjoy them,
Rio was neither. There was definitely enough laughs and heart on display to make this engaging. The visuals are also impressive. The animation is very colorful and vibrant and fits in perfectly with the fun, happy atmosphere of the film. In addition, the voice-cast is top-notch. Jesse Eisenberg, Anne Hathaway, Tracy Morgan, Jermaine Clement, George Lopez, and the other cast members clearly had fun with their roles. It was cool to see such an ensemble cast that all did well in their roles (a rarity for animated films).
Rio doesn't reinvent the wheel for animated films, but it provides enough laughs and heart for the whole family to enjoy.
3/5 Stars
