Following the immense success of ‘Rio’ entertaining animation movie about Blu, a domesticated Macaw who never learned to fly, ‘Rio 2’ is now being screened at Savoy at 4.15 pm and 7.00pm.Directed by Carlos Saldanha the film features the returning voices of Jesse Eisenberg, Anne Hathaway, will.i.am, Jamie Fox, George Lopez, Tracy Morgan, Jemaine Clement, Leslie Mann, Rodrigo Santoro, and Jake T. Austin. While the title refers to the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro, where the entire drama in the first film takes place, most of its plot in ‘Rio 2’ is set in the Amazon rainforest.

The computer-animated musical adventure 3D continues the story of Blu and his Macaw family. Blue, Jewel and their three kids leave their domesticated life in the city of Rio de Janeiro for a journey to the Amazon rainforest, where their owners Linda and Tulio were doing an expedition that seemingly found a hidden tribe of Spix’s Macaws.

On their way there, they are witnessed in Manaus by Blu and Jewel’s old nemesis Nigel the cockatoo, who then decides to seek revenge on the macaws, enlisting poison dart frog Gabi and tamandua Charlie as his minions. Upon arriving in the Amazon, the family comes across Jewel’s long-lost father, Eduardo, who is in hiding with his macaw tribe. As Blu has trouble fitting in, Nigel infiltrates the tribe, and illegal loggers kidnap Linda and Tulio on their way to reach the macaws’ hideout.

Presented by Blue Sky Studios 20th Century Fox Animation and distributed by 20th Century Fox, ‘Rio 2’ is released here by E.A.P. Films.
