Movie Review: The Angry Birds Movie

They are just angry and birds who can't fly

Movie Review: The Angry Birds Movie
YouTube/Angry Birds

We all know about angry birds. It was a huge app a couple years back. The whole point behind the game was to not let the pigs take over. How could you not fall in love with them? They were adorable and could destroy buildings. So of course they had to make a movie about them. I didn't know what to expect when I heard about the movie. I saw previews for it and knew that I wanted to go see it. I had heard it was a lot like the Lego movie that came out in February of 2014. I was assuming that it was more for adult humor. I was surprised to see how well they did with this movie from being based off a phone app.

I was right. Most of the jokes in the movie were more for adult humor. I was shocked at some of the jokes though. Some kids would understand them. I remember clearly Red, the red bird was having a bad morning and he said, "Aw pluck me." My jaw dropped when I heard it. I couldn't believe they slid that in there the way they did. I understand they have to keep the parents interested as well as the kids but dang, I thought that that was almost too far for a PG movie.

There was also a lot of subtle hints of sexual content. Most kids wouldn't think anything about these hints but it was made very clear to the older people watching the movie. Some of the hints were when the town's eggs was stolen Chuck decided to say, "Ladies get busy" while thrusting his hips.

While, yes, this movie was more adult than expected I thought it was cute. I don't think I would bring my children to go see it, personally. I took my boyfriend with me and we both thought it was good. We shared some laughs about it. I thought the storyline was kind of boring but the birds' personalities were awesome. They couldn't have done better with a phone app as a background.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
