Rio de Janeiro, I have embarked on the road of no return

The first group buy in my life was related to "Rio". At that time, Huiquan Cinema was 15 yuan for a movie ticket, and you could watch any movie, even the premiere. Bought two, intending to see the hot and highly rated "Rio" at the time. Although I didn't watch this movie and watched "Kung Fu Panda 2" in the end, but until yesterday, I really regretted that I didn't go to the cinema to see the 3D version of "Rio". This movie is really a rare good movie in 2011.
I think most people are attracted by the movie at the beginning, the beautiful birds sing in the morning light. The singing and dancing are so joyful and peaceful. Young Blue lived alone in a tree hole, without siblings or even his parents. When it spreads its wings and wants to rely on its nature to fly, the cuteness really makes people love it. But when those birds were suddenly put into cages, a large number of people would definitely not be able to accept it. How could the story take such a sharp turn. However, the lovely Blue was obviously a little bit luckier. The cage fell out of the bird carriage on the way, and was picked up by the kind Linda and taken care of by her. The days may go on peacefully, until one day, a bird doctor from Brazil tells Blue that he is the last male bird of his species, and that there is a female Jewel waiting for him in Rio. In order to save the race, Linda takes Blue on a "blind date" to Rio.
Before that, apart from football, I didn't have a good impression of Brazil. The beautiful samba and the legendary grand carnival are like legends. But through this film, I really overturned all the bad impressions I had about Brazil, and thoroughly appreciated the beautiful tropical scenery of Rio de Janeiro. Mixed with exotic background music, Rio's mesmerizing samba style is brought to the extreme.
The movie obviously won't let a blind date develop so peacefully. When a bird that is about to become extinct meets a bird dealer who does all kinds of heinous crimes, you can figure out how the next story will develop with your toes. Blue and Jewel were caught and then escaped. In the process of continuing to be caught, he continued to fight against the evil Nigel. Honestly, that disgusting white bird, Nigel, is really the movie's lingering nightmare, and every heart-wrenching episode about Blue is about him. Perhaps, in every movie there will always be a bastard who takes pleasure in torturing the protagonist. They struggle with the protagonist everywhere and oppose the protagonist everywhere. What they are in the movie is to make the audience hate it. But I'm still glad that in this movie, Blue wasn't tortured a lot. Although I have been separated from Linda for a long time, at least I have met a large group of fun bird friends and found my favorite Jewel in my life. Most importantly, Blue has learned to fly.

Church Blue flying is one of the main lines of this film. As a bird, Blue's inability to fly is obviously a joke. But for Blue, who has been cared for by humans since he was a child, flying seems impossible. After trying and studying again and again, I still haven't learned it. It wasn't until the last pinch, with the courage that Jewel gave him, that he learned how to fly. In fact, think about it like this. If Blue would fly at the beginning, then the movie would really lose half of the fun and beauty.
The film's graphics are so exquisitely crafted that I can't even imagine how shocking the 3D version of the movie would be. Rio in the movie, the scenery is extremely beautiful and fascinating. The soundtrack of the movie is also very good, the actors' voices are very beautiful, and the singing makes people feel very comfortable. Even on a cold winter day, the warmth of the distance brought by the tropical atmosphere makes my heart flutter. Blue and Jewel and all kinds of birds are very cute. Although I have never liked birds, this movie really made me fall in love with those cute little birds. Especially Blue's rich expressions, let people laugh.

The funniest line in the whole movie is "Never send a monkey to do a bird's job", and the translation is even more wonderful: monkeys should not be sent to do bird's job.

Killing me.



Han Han recommended this movie in his blog. In an era when bad movies are rampant, it is really a great enjoyment to see such a warm movie.

To borrow the lyrics from a song by Yang Kun: Rio de Janeiro, I have embarked on a road of no return.

Rio quotes

  • Nigel: There are two blue macaws out there, and I need your multitude of eyes to help me find them.

    Lead marmoset: Oh, yeah? What's in it for us?

    Nigel: Well, that's a fair question.

    [he suddenly takes the lead marmoset and flies high into the sky]

    Nigel: Let's discuss it.

    [Nigel drops him]

    Nigel: I certainly see your point.

    [to the lead marmoset as he's falling down]

    Nigel: But what could I possibly do for you in return? Hmm?

    Lead marmoset: Save me! Save me!

    Nigel: Oh? Well, that's a thought. Yeah. But is it enough? I don't want to feel like I'm cheating you.

    Lead marmoset: Help me! Help me! Help me! We'll do it! We'll do it! Save me! Please! Save meeeee!

    [just before he hits the ground, he stops as Nigel catches him]

    Nigel: All right, you've twisted my wing. Deal. Now then, anymore questions?

    [the group of monkeys remain silent]

    Nigel: No? Good. You will spread out and you will find these macaws by the end of the day, or it's flying lessons for everyone! Go!

    [the group of monkeys all scream with fright and run off]

  • Blu: [as he looks down the edge of a cliff] I've changed my mind! Yeah. Uh, maybe we could find a... a bus schedule or something?

    Rafael: Come on! You're not gonna back out now, Not in front of the lady!

    Blu: Uh... huh! Okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah, sure.

    Rafael: All right! That's the spirit!
