Sinekatalog’s take

A Mexican parrot travels to Hollywood to seek help from a TV superhero against villainous birds threatening his family's circus. The animation is colorful and kid-focused, with a cheerful sense of adventure. Aimed at younger audiences and families.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
