I really loved this film. It didn't do anything really new besides the interesting location which really made me want to go to Rio and the cute love story. Voice acting was noticeably superb and made the experience that much better.
Because Carlos Saldanha is brazilian, I was expecting a vision a little less caricated from Brazil. Being carioca (born in Rio) I couldn't help feeling a little disrespected. The least I was expecting was a strong body guard wearing a shiny golden costume underneath his uniform just waiting to samba. Everything is too much stereotyped and doesn't help to change the world's vision of Brazil where everything is football-samba-women.
Despite that, as a kid's movie, it's more adventurous and dramatic than comic.
The graphics and the modeling of Rio were fantastic. Don't think that's not true, our nature really is that way. Come see for yourself and get your own conclusions.
Evidently... It one of the many stereotypes about
Brazil created by filmmakers, in point of fact in this case a brazilian. Unfortunately because really is a cute movie.
Saw it last night. I was quite disappointed, since I've enjoyed all three Ice Age movies. I didn't connect with the characters and I felt the humour was too childish - which is ok for a children's movie, except for the fact that Pixar have made movies that are fun for kids and grown-ups alike. Oh, and why didn't they have Duran Duran's "Rio" on the soundtrack? :P

Really enjoyed this. Its a lot of fun seeing how they transferred Rio's elements into animal sizes and versions. Loved it.HEMA
Decent, but I think a Spanish speaking actress would have been funnier as the dominant Jewelweliveinatoy

A very nice movie for kids and even for their grown-up family ;-)DerekFME
A nice film. Far better than horrible trailer thing that ran for aeons before it came out.Showing items 1 – 15 of 28
