The film hits the ground running with the faceoff between the characters right from the beginning, but its tonality remains silly throughout. Zeta’s villainy is more entertaining than threatening, but that doesn’t blunt the terror she wields. Among the newbies, Chuck’s sister Silver (Rachel Bloom) – a tech-savvy Brainiac and the film’s main villain Zeta (Leslie Jones), a purple eagle are quite impressive. Together, they are a force to reckon with, and the makers ensure that their special powers are exploited quite well without going overboard. Chuck’s a speed demon and Bomb can literally explode at a minute’s notice.
While Red’s character gets a definite arc, Chuck, Bomb and Leonard have to play on their special powers and unbridled cuteness, to impress the audience. Together the trio are in a good form, bringing in a bulk of the laughs with their goofy acts. To save the Bird Island, Red along with his winged buddies Chuck (Josh Gad) and Bomb (Danny McBride) must work with their ace nemesis, the king pig Leonard Mudbeard (Bill Hader). Leading the pack is the hot-headed Red (Jason Sudeikis), who has pretty much become symbolic of the franchise. The makers throw in a lot of slapstick comedy by a battery of old and new characters of all shapes, sizes and colours. Right from the first scene, it’s established that this sequel of ‘The Angry Birds’ is strictly a kiddie flick and thankfully, it never tries to be anything other than that. Review: Three islands, lives at stake and a battle for survival - sounds like a pretty serious plot for an animated film, but this one’s far from it. Will their uncanny alliance save the day for the frenemies? Story: In this sequel, the flightless angry birds and the green piggies must put their rivalry on hold and come together to save their islands from a rogue eagle named Zeta (Leslie Jones).
