We're in the heat of it now... the dog days of summer. The time when the newness of being out of school has worn off and kids are saying "I'm bored" with ever increasing frequency. Don't cringe, because relief is on the way. Just in time to make the final full month of summer more fun for children -- as well as moms and dads -- comes the new Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment family movie release Rio 2 on Blu-ray and DVD.

Rio 2 picks up where the original Rio left off with returning stars Oscar nominee Jesse Eisenberg (Blu) and Oscar winner Anne Hathaway (Jewel) playing the parents of three kids plus some new A-list voice talents such as Bruno Mars, Kristin Chenoweth, Andy Garcia and others. This is the story of what happens when the couple along with their children venture into the Brazilian rainforest. It's a colorful journey through the beautiful Amazon with non-stop action, comedy, music and -- of course -- challenges like when Blu literally meets beak-to-beak with the mean-spirited Nigel and his scary father-in-law.

Rated G, the Rio 2 Blu-ray and DVD has more fun and music than the original. Subtitles are offered in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese, making this a great opportunity to expose your child to foreign languages like never before. Educational, family friendly entertainment, what could be better?
