Rio is an animation filled with Drama and Adventure that continues the story of Blu, a rare macaw who got taken from his home in Brazil and smuggled and shipped to be sold to collectors. This movie shows how he makes his way back home after being a house bird his whole life.
This movie takes place in a Fictional Brazilian Jungle and starts Blus’s life during the winter in small-town Minnesota, where A girl Linda Finds the bird and raises it with lots of knowledge and love.
Fifteen years later blu is a well home tamed and intelligent bird that lives easily and still cannot fly, lives a comfortable life with Linda the bookstore owner. With a surprise visit from Tolio, he explains that Blu is the last male of his species, and he has a beautiful female called
Jewel in Rio De Janeiro. He tells Linda to bring her and Blu so that Blu can meet Jewel and save their species. Soon after Tolio examines Blu, he throws Blu across the room attempting to let him fly.
After Blu is kissed by Jewel Blue falls in love with her, he becomes aware of having a heartbeat during this moment. He has a moment of bravery and spreads his wings and he successfully swoops out of the nosedive to avoid colliding with the ocean, he saves Jewel and himself and flies back to his owners. As moments pass Jewel fully recovers, Blu meets with her in the jungle to meet for their final goodbyes to Linda completed with their epic first bump at the Sanctuary.
As the movie comes to a close the audience learns that Blu wants to prove that he is brave and confesses his love for Jewel and decides he even wants to stay to save his species.
I loved watching the movie myself, I highly recommend watching Rio 2 to continue watching Blu and Jewels Story, and I would recommend this movie for children 4- 16 years old with lots of fun colors for them and jokes to keep them entertained, or simply just a movie for you to fall asleep to or a fun family-friendly movie night.
