The Angry Birds Movie 2

Pigs and birds are always at war in the world of Angry Birds but what happens when these two rival sides join forces to take on a more powerful threat that could wipe them both out? This is exactly what happens in the sequel to the movie adaptation of the hit mobile app game made by Rovio which spawned a worldwide phenomenon that made them "angry" for more Angry Birds.

The Angry Birds Movie 2
With an all-star cast like Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Peter Dinklage, Bill Hader, and more, the Angry Birds Movie 2 promises to be even more angrier than the previous film and in this film, cue the Game of Thrones catchline, winter is coming as a powerful new threat emerges to destroy both the birds and the pigs' homes. Feared of losing their homes, the two mortal enemies ended up joining forces to stop this powerful new threat and save the world. Yes, that "let's save the world, you jerk" feeling when two rivals join forces to defeat a common enemy. Sounds classic.

That odd partnership between the two rival enemies surely made it the biggest Angry Birds adventure yet and it's also one of the corniest animated comedy films you would want to laugh about because with all the humor that really leaves viewers a mild pinch rather than a heavy punch just as powerful as a pack of Angry Birds crash-landing on their targets, you can slightly leave yourself a not-so-big smile when you finished watching the film. 

While some suggest that this is just another filler to occupy just another Friday on the summer movie season, there are some upsides about The Angry Birds Movie sequel as fans of the phenomenal franchise would agree and cuteness aside, the biggest of all is the clear lesson about it doesn't matter which side you're on, as long as you are working towards a common goal with your foes (whatever it means) to save the day. 

Yes, everyone knows this lesson but this sequel surely knows how to leave families and fans with an angry smile on their faces that are more angrier than they where when they first saw the first Angry Birds movie. Not quite the ideal movie to watch this summer but if you are here for some animated laughs while trying lighten yourselves up with some mild cuteness (trust me, these guys aren't cute), consider this film set.

My rating: 3.5 out of 5.
