The Angry Birds Movie (2016)

This is How Movies Should Be Made

just watch it!

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

This adaptation of the Angry Birds game does a little bit more than just be an advertisement for the games. It's an entertaining, well-animated flick that even has a Shining reference.

I have no words. WHY would you make a movie based on a DEAD app game which wasn't even good in the first place? It's nothing more than high-budget manure. I went to see it in late '16 with some friends, and even though I thought it'd be rubbish I was willing to give it a go. How bad was it? Much, much worse than I thought. Sony can do way better, I mean, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs was really good, and now they're making tripe like this and the Emoji Movie. It was unoriginal as hell, the acting was rubbish, and the attempts at humour were sickening. The puns were cheesier than a quattro-formaggio pizza, and the "adult humour" goes way too far for little kids.Worse still, absolutely none of the characters were likable. Red is pretty much your textbook protagonist; a misunderstood guy who's isolated from the rest of society. Perfect! Chuck is the most annoying thing on earth and I swear he's on crack. Bomb is pretty much the most normal character in the whole thing, and when you think about it, that's far from normal... Leonard, the villain, is fat as hell and likes COUNTRY music. He's a VILLAIN, for god's sake. What villains like COUNTRY MUSIC?!Terrible, terrible film. I think watching a beetle die would be more entertaining. My mum and 9 year old sister even thought it was trash.Don't get this on DVD (unless you like the game or cheesy puns), ever!Dialogue and Acting: 3/10 Animation: 6/10 Structuring: 2/10 Subtlety and Themes: 3/10 Originality: 1/10Total: 15/50

I'm not going to lie. The idea for an Angry Birds movie actually did appeal to me for some reason. I did like the video game. It was pretty fun and really addicting causing the game to be one of the most download smartphone apps of all time. The game had also made a series of animated shorts that actually not that bad. So, I did have hopes for "The Angry Birds Movie" to be pretty decent. That was a mistake I made. A huge mistake I made, because this movie is just awful. I mean, really bad. It's certainly not one of the worst animated movies ever made, but trust me. It's an absolutely terrible movie.The story of the movie focuses on Red (Jason Sudeikis) a bird whose anger problems end him up in an anger management class along with four others like Chuck (Josh Gad), Bomb (Danny McBride), Matilda (Maya Rudolph), and Terrence (Sean Penn). If you want to know why Red acts this way, it turns out he had one of those clichéd backstories where it's revealed that he was bullied by the other birds his age because he has no parents and has big eyebrows. After being in the class for some time, a boatload of pigs arrive at the island where they live, lead by a king pig (Bill Hader) who decides to become friends with the birds. However, it turns out to be a lie because the pigs take all the eggs from the birds and leaves the island so they can eat them on their own island. The birds turn to Red for help and it's up to him and his friends from the anger management class to follow the pigs and get back the eggs.I should have realized the doom I was heading into when I realized that the screenwriter worked on "Alvin and the Chipmunks" which is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my entire life. The story is not the worst thing about the movie. It does follow the video game rather faithfully, right down to the slingshots. However, it's really clichéd. It has scenes we've seen so many times in other movies with no changes. The characters, on the other hand, are awful. I never liked a single solitary character in this entire movie. Every single character in this movie was either annoying, stupid, or just jerks and I hated every single one of them, particular are main character Red who I think said over twenty puns in the span of an hour and a half. Speaking of the puns, the jokes are another horrible thing about this film. The jokes in this film range from being disgusting to inappropriate. These jokes really annoyed me and disgusted me to the point that I decided would never show my kids this film. For example, there was a scene where a character was reading a book Fifty Shades of Green. Yeah, good idea promoting a book that has tons of sex in it in a kids movie. The only good thing in this entire film was the animation. It looked very pretty had nice colors and looked at least like an Angry Birds movie. I just wish that I put the movie on mute so I didn't have to listen to the horrendous dialogue. Overall, I really hated "The Angry Birds Movie". It's truly an awful movie. I really wished somebody at the studio had taken a look at the script and discarded it before the film started production because if they did, it would have been one hundred percent better. If your kids really want to see something related to Angry Birds, just go buy them "Angry Birds Toons" and don't waste money on this disaster. It's really not worth watching.

This summary is not a joke. This movie is honestly terrible.The thing with the Angry Birds Movie which I do not understand at all is that it's supposed to be aimed at a family-friendly audience, however there are jokes galore here that do not fit in that category.Unfunny adult innuendos, twerking, toilet humor. I'm not the kind of person who would even be into this but I was genuinely disgusted about how crude this movie is.And also, instead of the movie being dragged on and long just like any other simple story being adapted to the big screen, the movie goes way too fast. I couldn't keep up with what was going on. Even in places where it seems normal it doesn't ever stop for a second. There was an interesting premise to this movie but it just didn't catch on to me because of the humor and how fast the movie goes. And I had to click off after watching for a while because I couldn't take it. I almost had an aneurysm.
