Having only played the Rovio game on which The Angry Birds Movie is based a handful of times, I didn’t know why the birds are angry. The movie makes it quite clear that the green pigs have plenty to do with it. Though, I’m guessing that the whole thing of having wings but not being able to fly probably adds to the rage too, just a little.
I must admit that I enjoyed The Angry Birds Movie more than I expected. The cuteness of the birds, the comedy, the story and especially Chuck, the yellow bird voiced by Josh Gad. He stands out plenty, thanks to the funny dialogue, Gad’s comic timing and entertaining voice work.
During the movie, I definitely got the urge to download the game and play, just so I could hurt those green piggies. Don’t be surprised if vengeance also enters your heart as you enjoy the movie.
Watch to see precisely why the piggies deserve to be punished. There’s also the cuteness, well-executed comic moments to enjoy and of course, that ending!
Happy Film Loving,
G
