The idea of bringing a classic cell phone game to the cinema was not bad until they decided on a shallow and weak script. However, it becomes good for children. There is no reason to create expectations for a continuation. 5.6/10

While a lot of its humour is over the top and falls flat, The Angry Birds Movie is nevertheless a well animated, sporadically funny and entertaining film that is bolstered by good voice acting. 6.5/10

They tried so hard to to make their jokes work but it felt forced and overall not good at all Some jokes are for adults but again it felt forced and not funny. Story on the other hand is bland and seems predictable.The voice acting are okay .Again the movie has some good animation,it's cute and colorful.

The Angry Birds is just another cliche kid's film with a bland story and predictable jokes.Just watch The Nice Guys and leave your kids to watch this film.… Expand

'The Angry Birds Movie' is, in short, harmless. We all know as adults, we tend to dread these kinds of animated films because they seem so obnoxious, and rather pointless. I say pointless simply because the game, which you can download on'The Angry Birds Movie' is, in short, harmless. We all know as adults, we tend to dread these kinds of animated films because they seem so obnoxious, and rather pointless. I say pointless simply because the game, which you can download on your iPhone, which was released in 2009, peaked in popularity through the early 2010s. Had this movie been released at least 3 or 4 years ago, it would seem more relevant.

"Angry Birds" focuses on a bird named Red (voiced by Jason Sudeikis), who has pretty much been ridiculed his entire life due to his short temper and thick eye brows. When an incident occurs at a little child's birthday party, Red has been told he needs to attend an anger management session. This is where he meets the fast-paced Chuck (Josh Gad), and Bomb (Danny McBride) who share their stories of how they can;t control either their speed, or how Bomb can't control not being able to explode.

The plot kick-starts as soon as we meet Leonard (Bill Hader), a leader pig who comes to the birds' hometown, and starts holding parties and begins to win the community's respect. However, Red isn't so sure about this, and himself, Chuck and Bomb discover that they are hiding something in the ship that they travelled in.

The rest of the birds' think that they are lying, and Red tries his best to convince them that the group of menacing pigs are trying to steal the birds' eggs.

Red, Chuck and Bomb travel far to meet the Mighty Eagle (Peter Dinklage) and ask for his help. This scene, strangely enough and without spoiling it, leads to nowhere. The plot speeds up as soon as Red, Chuck and Bomb convince the bird population to go to war with the pigs, and develop a massive slingshot to hit their castle. Anybody who has played an "Angry Birds" game on their iPhone will know that's the aim of the game, assemble your bird onto a slingshot and sling them against the pigs and their obstacles. It's admittedly addictive, but to put this into a film, it can be hard to make it interesting and convincing.

The main problem with this film is that it seems to have trouble balancing the jokes and the plot. There are times where the plot will move for about 10 minutes, and then the film grinds to a sudden halt to make a joke that has nothing to do with the premise of the film for about 5 minutes, then the film wakes up and the plot continues. The fact that it keeps stopping to make jokes in order to get laughs seems forced. Plus, the nature of the jokes are predictable. Let's just say that there is a scene in which a main character lands in a small room full of dynamite and he gets up and says "Well, that's dynamite". Or take another scene, where we see the main characters bathing and drinking in some holy lake, only to discover that every morning a certain character urinates in that lake every morning, the urinating joke goes on for about 3 or 4 minutes. If you wanted those jokes to be a surprise, then I'm sorry I spoiled it for you.

The only character that made me laugh the most would be Bomb, voiced by Danny McBride, but even then, his joking time seems to be limited. The rest of the talented cast do seem wasted in their roles, Sudeikis, who is very funny, doesn't have much inventive material to work with. The same can be said for Josh Gad and BIll Hader, two actors who can be funny with the right material, but they are weighed down by cliched, animated kids movie, predictable jokes.

Like I said before...this film is harmless...children will definitely have fun with its fast-paced and colorful tone, and adults will tolerate this enough, but you will forget this film existed. It's funny at times, but the predictable jokes are noticeable, plus the fact that the plot has to stop in order to make these jokes can be a distraction.… Expand

LaEsta película podría haber sido más revolucionaría si se estrenaba en 2014 o 2013 pero la tenemos en 2016, "The Angry Birds Movie" es una película aceptable pero un éxito si hablamos de películas sobre vídeo juegos, ya que mala no es. La historia no innova en nada pero cumple con divertir y promocionar a sus personajes.
La película nos presenta a Red, el ave insignia del juego, quien es un ciudadano incomprendido con problemas de ira, y por un altercado es es sentenciado a tomar terapia de ira, donde conoce a Chuck (El ave amarilla) y Bomb. Todo cambia con la llegada de los cerdos a la isla quiénes aparecen de la nada y se hacen amigos de todo menos Red.
En general "The Angry Birds Movie" te produce una sensación de Déja vù, ya que las bromas seguramente la viste si tienes recorrido de películas o series de comedia, al igual que el grupo de aves protagonistas tienen roles muy vistos, Red es el incomprendido pero con sus características logra ser amado (Como el 80% de los roles de Sandler), Chuck es el opuesto al protagonista con bromas y personalidad disparatada (Como el Burro de Shrek) y Bomb es el gigante con corazón de oro (Como Krong, Balú o Sullivan).
En general es entretenida, tiene momentos y bromas que funcionan y se ve muy bien, pero habiéndola visto una vez me basta para disfrutarla y pasar a otra cosa.… Expand

This is a very bland family film, but I at least respect the effort that was put into it and I think John Vitti did a decent job writing the script because there are a couple of funny lines in there. Other than than, it’s one of the most average films I have seen all year, I don’t feel much for the film at all. It feels like a cash grab to capitalise on the fleeting success of the Angry Birds games and I wouldn’t want to re-visit it. The best performances are easily Peter Dinklage, Jason Sudeikis and Keegan-Michael Key of Key and Peel fame, but really I’m not into this one. The animation may be nice and 3D effects are quite good and I don’t really hate the film overall, but there are better family films that came out earlier in 2016 and there will be better ones later in 2016. Save your money, there are better films round the corner.… Expand

This had some good laughs, but not as much as I would expect. The plot was simplistic but it got the job done. Jason did a very good job as "Red" he was definitely the standout here

If you intend to enjoy this, good for you because you just managed to survive 97 minutes of your life by ignoring all the humor caused in this movie. We 'may' finally know why the birds are always angry all the time, but this story did not work whatsoever.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Angry Birds is simply put "one of those movies you let the children watch while you go read a book". The plot line and story are not its strong points. With a full featured film being based on a mobile games premise unfortunately the writer and directors just don't have much to work with. For what it is..its great. Its short filled with simple slap stick comedy moments. The younger ones will enjoy it but if your looking for an emotional roller coaster this isn't the one for you.… Expand

The Angry Birds movie delivers for many fans of the video game and delights children with exciting visuals, but adults will be left wondering if the film was even necessary. Bathroom jokes and terrible dialogue don't quite help either.

If you were a child who's not good at tying your own shoelaces or eating your broccoli, you would be so pleased to see the little grumpy birds you played to be movie characters. The movie is hilarious and full of surprises, on a pre-school level.

Running on fumes, understandably. There isn't really a lot to go on with something as thin as an old, bare bones mobile game. But for what it is? Not that bad.

Not Awful, But Not Very Good
The trailers looked better than the final product by basically showing all the funny parts in the trailer.
