Trivia:

During production, Jesse Eisenberg was still working on The Social Network (2010). To compensate for time, he agreed to provide Blu's dialogue on weekends, admitting that it diverted him away from the mindset of his nearly-joyless Social Network character.

Goofs:

Continuity: In the beginning of the movie, during the first performance of 'Real in Rio' the yellow Macaw that baby Blu looks to has three chicks. She only throws two out of the nest then flies away with the newly flying chicks, leaving the third one in the nest.

Quotes:

Nico:So, are you here for carnival?
Blu:Oh, actually, I'm just here to meet uh... a girl.
Nico:Aahhh, a girl.
Blu:Yes.
Nico:Little word of advice. You make the first move. Brazilian ladies respond to confidence.
Blu:Oh, right.
Pedro:Yeah! It's all about swagger. You gotta puff out that chest, swing that tail, eyes narrow, like some kind of crazy love hawk!
[he squawks like a hawk]
Nico:But first, we gotta bust you out!
Blu:What?

Movie Connections:

Soundtrack:

Favo de Mel (Real In Rio)

Watch out for Colours, Music& Samba.

Why to watch: Watch out for Colours, Music& Samba.It's all about Rio, Brazil. Its really awesome. Importantly, animated movie with so much of colours & music, (though it-colour part was there in UP) but in Rio it feels like you are there in the Natural Beauty.

-Negative points: 1. Predictable story or rather regular story. 2. Not so humorous.

Screen Play: Movie surely doesn't make you bore, story goes smoothly.

For whom: Family & romantic people !!!

3D Effects: Impressive.Actually, Same as Megamind & other animated movies, but so much of colours makes it more impressive

Ratings: 7.5/10

Personal opinion:Must watch :8/10
