Rio

It's summer and most movies are heading to Rio De Janeiro. OK, the only one I know is Fast 5 and now Rio.Another animation about birds since Happy Feet with awesome musical numbers.

A Spix's Macaw, Blu was smuggle out of Rio through Wildlife Trade and made his to Minnesota. Linda, a small girl then, found Blu and both grew up as companion. Years passed and an ornithologist(someone who studies about birds, it's a bird movie!!!) claimed that Blu is the last male Spix's Macaw and needs to mate with a female macaw back in Rio. To prevent extinction, both Linda and Blu agreed. While in the lab, Blu and the female Spix's Macaw, Jewel were abducted during a night break-in.

As the last remaining Spix's Macaw, the pair fetches a high price but the couples managed to escape. The adventure continues to get back to Linda with the help of other feather friends around Rio.

Like Happy Feet(same producers), the animation is stunning with tons of adorable characters. The musical score is also great with samba and percussion aligning the in-show event of Rio's Carnival.
