Synopsis
A group of flightless birds led by the needy hero Red (voiced by Jason Sudeikis) have to take affirmative action with their neighbours – and sworn enemies – the pigs led by king of pigs Leonard (Bill Hader) when a crazed Eagle Zeta (Leslie Jones) uses a lava fuelled super weapon to cause mayhem to their idyllic islands to create the perfect, warm homes.

Review by @Reelreviewer
I haven't seen the first Angry Birds movie and, in spite of bleating on in my reviews time and time again about not being a fan of animated films, I approached this sequel with no prejudice.

After all, the trailer - which I have seen about six times during the past few weeks after other cinema visits - was quite funny. There were jokes. It was silly. It seemed...amusing.

So, parents (and kids alike), if you have seen the trailer and want to watch the full-length thing, take note - the trailer was more or less 'it'.
