Why to watch: Watch out for Colours, Music& Samba.It's all about Rio, Brazil. Its really awesome. Importantly, animated movie with so much of colours & music, (though it-colour part was there in UP) but in Rio it feels like you are there in the Natural Beauty.
-Negative points: 1. Predictable story or rather regular story. 2. Not so humorous.
Screen Play: Movie surely doesn't make you bore, story goes smoothly.
For whom: Family & romantic people !!!
3D Effects: Impressive.Actually, Same as Megamind & other animated movies, but so much of colours makes it more impressive
Ratings: 7.5/10
Personal opinion:Must watch :8/10
