Is this the Angry Birds Movie


What I mean is, is the movie merely inspired by Angry Birds, or does it claim to actually tell the whole story behind the "Angry Birds" mobile application and is sanctioned by the app developer?

Doubt that.

More like a few of the ball shaped birds might have an Angry Bird vibe to it for the laughs, but that's about it.

I'm sure it was at least inspired by Angry Birds because it's called "Rio" and it has birds trapped in cages and it has a big fight scene where birds fight monkeys, which is the theme of Angry Birds. But I'm not sure if this is the "official" movie

If it was then it would be titled "Angry Birds: The Movie".

Either you are really dumb, or really smart. I like to imagine the latter.

it has promotional ties to the game (previews and ads and free game codes and movie name) but has absolutely nothing to do with the game. it's false advertising to get some viewers.

Rovio just used the release of the Rio movie to create a game including some backgrounds and characters from the movie to sell another Angry Birds game.

There is a REAL "Rio" videogame out though, for the youngsters.
Here's a trailer for the game on Wii, DS, XBOX360 and PS3

Oh GOOD!,my dog found the chainsaw
As above said,Rovio used the film as the basis for a version of Angry Birds. Rio has no direct ties to Angry Birds
