The Take
The Angry Birds Movie is a cynical cash grab that exists only to squeeze more downloads from a 2012 phone game. It replaces the game's simple physics fun with committee-written gags and celebrity voices that add nothing.
The Verdict
The film markets itself to kids while delivering lazy animation and half-hearted attempts at edge. Everything feels like an extended ad for the original app rather than a story anyone asked for.
Skip it.
