[Instrumental music] Alright, let's just get right into the review.
So I saw Rio at Tysons with one of my friends, Sunday (which was yesterday)
I thought it was a very well film. One of the things I've heard about it is that
it's really colorful, & bright & very lively, & I definitely agree with that.
Because you know, you see all these birds. It's very tropical, like, you know,
The movie is shot in Brazil. It's animated. You see all these colorful birds & colors.
It's really nice. Now I'll tell you the plot. The movie has
sort of a double plot. One plot is that there are
two macaws in the world. They're the last of their
species. Ever. Only two blue macaws. One's male, one's
female. & there are doctors & "animal specialists"
who say that they should "get together" to save their species.
But also, there are thieves, that are trying to steal the
birds & sell them so they can be rich & make a bunch of
money off them. They're trying to steal a bunch of other
rare birds too. So it's sort of a double plot. Now when
you see this movie, you'll notice that it's more musical
(this movie is made by Blue Sky Studios) More musical than
their past "Ice Age" films. It features lots of musical
numbers with lots of people singing. Like the cast of
the film. Jamie Foxx, George Lopez, etc. Really, the
soundtrack has some really good musical numbers on it.
I'd probably give it an 8/10 but I don't even know.
Maybe a 9. I'm not so sure. Right now, it's probably
around an 8.1 or something or an 8.2 or something like that. Also, there are, sort of, two soundtracks.
One features the songs from the motion picture, another one is a score by John Powell, who
we all know is like a God when it comes to animated film
scores (How To Train Your Dragon)
[Epic face] He's made a lot of good soundtracks. So check
that one out. That one's actually gonna come out tomorrow.
The John Powell soundtrack, so I would definitely
get that. [Instrumental music]
