Rio 2 continues from Rio, now happily married with 3 Kids Blue is content with his life in Rio, but when Linda and Tulio discover a flock of Blue Macaws in the amazon, Blue and Jewel set off to discover they are not the only pair left.
In terms of story this is nothing new, the story is a fairly classic one of a misfit who doesn't belong, but actually I enjoyed this immensely, the characterisation is good, especially of Blue as he goes about finding his place in this new world, the songs are good, and the jokes work quite well. My only real issue is the character of Pedro played by Will.i.am, in the first film he was almost a peripheral character, but by bringing him more into the 2nd movie it needed a bit of character, rather than Will.i.am just playing a parody of himself.
On the whole though this is a very enjoyable film, maybe more so than the original, and certainly much more fun for the Kids than he Muppets 7/10
