Our Rio 2 Review:
Our boys loved watching Rio on Netflix, we’ve watched it so many times that I could give you a play by play of the storyline and sing “Real in Rio” without the lyrics! We had high hopes for the sequel and and we absolutely LOVED everything about Rio 2. From the moment it starts the music is infectious and the environmental protection storyline is such an important topic for the Amazon and the rare species that live there. The animation is beautiful, colourful and engaging and the storyline interesting and relatable to kids and adults alike.
I loved that the movie allowed for some great discussion with my boys about why it is harmful to cut down so many trees and why we must protect our animal friends. On top of the great message for kids, the movie is fun, funny and highly entertaining. I am looking forward to this being our new – go-to movie on rainy afternoons.
Rio 2 released on Digital HD July 1, 2014, and is available on Blu-ray/DVD today!

I have not seen the movie yet so do not have one but I have heard the whole thing is hilarious.
i havent seen the first rio but my nephew has im not sure what his favorite scene from the movie is this would be for him
My favourite scene from the first one is the opening scene with all the singing and bright colours — I loved it!
I liked when Blu had to pick between saving his lady love or re-connecting with his human buddy.
I haven’t seen the movie yet, but it seems to be a good one.
