Recommended: 3+ (depending on if your kid is likely to ask about the humour they don't understand yet)
Rating: PG (Mild crude humour and coarse language)
Although all the language is bleeped out in some admittedly hilarious ways there is also a fair amount of potty humour and innuendo so be ready to have discussions on the appropriateness of what should and shouldn't be said if your kid is switched on already to that kind of language and humour.
Back when it first came out the Angry Birds game only lasted on my phone for about 2 weeks, I was more of a Temple Run and Fruit Ninja girl, yet somehow the Angry Birds game has managed to find it's way to the big screen again captivating people, including myself, even more than the game did.
This new Angry Birds film builds onto the characters and the world that is created in the first film expanding it out to also include more female characters, who might I add are some of my favourite, fleshing out more backstory and intricate emotions in the characters you already know like Red and Mighty Eagle.
Featuring a storyline that is far more about finding the things that bind not divide us and how important teamwork is even with those that aren't are closest friends.
In this one the two islands of piggies and birds must create a truce and band together to save both their islands from a bigger and colder threat. This creates some tension along with red having to face how to work in a team with people who are more skilled than he is in certain areas without losing his confidence and ability to lead.
The Angry Birds Movie 2 just as equally a teen, young adult and adult film as it is a kids film. Certainly not the funniest animated film out there but it is entertaining with a strong storytelling, great for the school, holidays when you want to entertain multiple age groups and yourself.
The Angry Birds Movie 2 is in cinemas now!
