The Angry Birds Movie

2016

An island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds or almost entirely. In this paradise, Red, a bird with a temper problem, speedy Chuck, and the volatile Bomb have always been outsiders. But when the island is visited by mysterious green piggies, it’s up to these unlikely outcasts to figure out what the pigs are up to.

Ages 7+Source checked

Why this age? Cartoon violence, explosions, destruction, frightening peril, and threatened eggs are frequent but stylized, with little graphic injury. Younger viewers may need help with anger, stereotyping, and revenge-oriented themes. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
