The Angry Birds Movie
Sony Pictures Animation brings the mobile game phenomenon to the big screen with this family film, featuring the voices of Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses), Josh Gad (Frozen) and Danny McBride (This is the End).
The movie takes us to an island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds – or almost entirely. In this paradise, Red (Sudeikis), a bird with a temper problem, speedy Chuck (Gad), and the volatile Bomb (McBride) have always been outsiders. But when the island is visited by mysterious green piggies, it falls to these outcasts to figure out what the intruders are up to.

pressThere's no denying the movie's high spirits or its irresistible invitation to shake your sillies out.
Hollywood Reporter
pressThe animation punches well above its weight with properly Looney Tunes-standard sight gags, polished, highly expressive character design...
Entertainment Weekly
pressDelivers a mildly diverting mix of winky meta-jokes and moral lessons, cannily aimed at both the next generation of tiny consumers and their more sophisticated parents.
