rouping the kids together so they can

watch a movie by themselves? Well,

there’s no need to this holiday as

these hotly anticipated releases will have

you wanting to join the party. Summer’s

blockbusters are here, and we’ll tell you what

to watch and why before anyone else dare

give you any spoilers.

Angry Birds 2

It sure seems like this summer is one for

sequels, especially mega successful hits

that have managed to win over the littlest of

audiences. The mighty Angry Birds are still

angry – furious, in fact. Yes, we’re talking

about Red, Chuck, Bomb and Mighty Eagle.

This time around, the flightless feathered

characters in Angry Birds 2 are facing a new

threat. Bird and Pig Islands are in danger, so

it’s time to recruit Chuck’s sister Silver and

team up with more animals.

Does it all go well? Of course it doesn’t.

In the Sony Pictures animation, kids will

follow the Birds as they try to escape Bad

Piggies’ vengeance after they devastated their

homeland in battle. The comic struggle ends

when a mysterious purple creature makes

an appearance, threatening everyone with

her own plans for conquest after having been

ostracised for long enough.

Whether they choose to join forces or still

can’t handle working together against one,

that’s one question little ones will get an

answer to while watching Angry Birds 2. Let’s

hope we never get on the grumpies’ bad side.

Release date: August 8

Director: Thurop Van Orman

Cast: Rachel Bloom, Josh Gad, Jason Sudeikis

Coconut and his two very aptly-named

friends Gourmet Dragon Oscar and Porcupine

Matilda (originally children’s book characters),

will embark on yet another journey. The tiny
